Thankfully this involved music bought and listened to recently, rather than choosing favourite/most meaningful songs, so was easier than predicted ;)

Total Volume of music on your computer:
Um, a couple of albums I copied off a friend last year, can't remember what. Am I really old fashioned in having my music as tapes and cd's?? Good job really, cos if the question was how many cd's, I'd be here forever..

The last album you purchased was:
Show of Hands: Cold Cuts- vg as usual for SoH!

Song Playing right now:
Kate Rusby- The fairest of all yarrow. Quite possibly one of the best folk songs ever, imho. Not sure why, but the guitar bit at the beginning never fails to send a tingle down my spine.

Seven songs you've been listening to a lot recently, from several genres: (hmm, so tempted to change this one, seven songs that mean a lot to me. Might well do that at some point anyway).

Kirsty Macoll: There's a guy works down the chip shop swears he's elvis- great fun, and sometimes rings true a little too!
Badly Drawn Boy: Silent sigh (from the About a Boy soundtrack). Amazing lyrics.
"There's nothing you could never do, to ever let me down. So remember that I'll always love you."
E2K: Itue, Stitue, Statue. Again, the lyrics do it for me on this one. "In the space between the seconds, the hours slide away."
Kate Rusby: The Daughter of Megan. Always listening to this one, just is one of the most touching and honest love songs, without being soppy or cheesy. Very high on my list of favourites.
Van Morrison: Be Thou My Vision. He has such a great voice, and it's one I've known since I was ickle, and this is just one of the best hymns I know. Which reminds me, I must give that cd back at some point :D
Fleetwood Mac: Everywhere- I've no idea why, I just felt the need for a bit of upbeat catchyness recently.
Barenaked Ladies: One Week- fabulous, great music to walk to!

Tag Three more:
Jack, Dee and Shifty Gnome. Hopefully they will read this, if not, poke them and send them in this direction?
