Jean-Michel Jarre - Oxygene 4
(Dec 27, 2006 - 02:44) | I used to like Jean-Michel Jarre's music a lot, let's say 20 years ago. Now it does sound a bit dated, and it's not what I realy like these days. But nice reminder

Sufjan Stevens - Jacksonville
(Aug 29, 2005 - 14:47) | I heard a couple of songs from sufjan here on RP and it I thought it was all quite likable... then I bought the CD a few days ago and it hasn't left my CD player since. What a wonderful album. A 10 from start to finish!

Right, the guy simply can't sing! Saw him live once and a dog's howling sounds nicer.

I'm no fan of this particular song, but your comments are ignorant. You're free to go back to terrestrial radio, where you can hear the same mundane tripe over and over again. Or, there's the magical mute button.
Fortunately, RP isn't run for one person's tastes, and it gives every peron who visits input regarding the playlist. So if you continue to reap the benefit of a varied playlist for free, then good for you. Do whatever your conscience tells you. If you're dumb enough to post such thoughts, however, then you deserve the flaming you get.
btw This song just went from 6 to 4

Their music just strikes me right in the heart. Love it.
The later albums Secret South and Folklore are even darker... indeed not for everyone but once it grabs you there is no turning back!
And yes, if you get the change to see them live.... stand in front of the stage, close your eyes, and drift away. 8)

For me in a good way, yes! I also got a tape from a friend about 10 years ago. Later I bought the CD and I still love to hear it!
