How many times have you sat at your computer and asked aloud “how great would it be if I could listen to what Scott is listening to right now?”

Well, ask no more. Let me direct your attention to Finetune. You can make playlists and share it with others. Each playlist has to be 45 songs.
Below you will find a playlist of 45 of my favorite artists and songs. Give it a listen and then make your own playlist. You can also find it here.
I’m always on the hunt for new music so I would love to see what you put together.

Here is the Playlist:
Aimee Mann–Wise Up (from the great scene in “Magnolia”)
Augustana–Boston (Great Piano RAWK)
Ben Folds–Gracie (My oldest daughter’s middle name is Grace.)
Ben Kweller–Nothing Happening
Bruce Springsteen–Thunder Road (This is the 1975 live version from the 5 LP set he released in the mid-80s. My favorite version of one of his greatest tunes.)
Carrie Newcomer–Bare To The Bone (A classic secular Jesus song)
Cheryl Wheeler–Right Way to Do the Wrong Thing (No one writes a ballad better than her.)
Dan Bern–Jerusalem (He’s had the New Dylan label thrust on him. This song from his ’97 debut is provocative and hilarious.)
Darden Smith–Two Dollar Novels (You can’t really go home again, can you?)
Dashboard Confessional–Don’t Wait (Just majestic)
David Mallett–Inches and Miles (This Maine based songwriter doesn’t record enough)
Ellis Paul–The World Ain’t Slowin’ Down (Was used in “Me, Myself and Irene)
Indigo Girls–Shame on You (The Girls’ take on immigration)
Jackson Browne–Call It A Loan
James McMurtry–Song For a Deck Hands Daughter (One of the best story songs ever written)

John Prine–In Spite of Ourselves (This duet with Iris Dement is one of the funniest love songs you will ever hear)
Joseph Arthur–In the Sun (Beautiful tune)

Josh Ritter–Thin Blue Flame (From one of the greatest albums of this decade.)
Joy Division–Love Will Tear Us Apart (Heartbreaking)
