2. Evanescence - My Immortal
I can't recall ever listening to Evanescence, so this will be interesting. Wow, this is beautiful. Really beautiful. I need to listen to that more. 10/10
The Wombats: Anti-D
You know, for a song about being an anti-depressant it starts off pretty... depressing. I kid, of course, I get the point of what he's going for here. I like the background music and the singer does a good job though he seems kinda similar to the singer of Third Eye Blind (honestly, this kinda reminded me of a 3EB song in general just with different instruments). Course for all I know the influence could go the other way... The song grows on me as I listen to it, getting bigger as it goes along. I enjoyed it but probably won't seek out more specifically by them, though I'd be happy to listen to more of them that's pointed out to me. 7/10
"Hasn't Hit Me Yet", Blue Rodeo: I'm enjoying the sound: it has a wistful, nostalgic feeling to it. There's a lot of interesting instrumental interplay around the two-minute mark. It reminds me -- bizarrely -- of country-western music at one point, specifically starting three minutes in. That adds to the wistfulness, which is a little difficult for considering that a bunch of my friends graduated from our mutual alma mater yesterday, and so there's less and less to tie me to the university I loved so much. Everyone's moving on.. 9/10.
Very interesting start; the beeping makes me think of Morse code, sounding out distress.
I first heard it in Me, Myself, and Irene, which is a Jim Carrey movie. It also features CAKE's "Hem of your Garment".
Are there any rules to this game regarding the taking of turns?

"War of the Worlds" - Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly.
First of all, points off for the annoying band name punctuation.![]()
Oh? I'm not sure what you mean by it not being the best song to be introduced with. This is actually by far their most popular song, and they tend to stick to mellow acoustic stuff, with the female and male singers trading off lead vocals. I'd recommend pretty much any of their three albums, they're all very listenable, though not terribly distinct from one another."World Spins Madly On" - The Weepies
This is a quality acoustic ballad. First I've heard of this band, and probably not the best song to be introduced with, but I like it all the same.

Eisley - Better Love
Beautiful. I really can't describe it in any other way. 10/10
Cake - Mahna Mahna
Umm. Cake? Anyway.. the song kind of drags on? Although with a name like Cake it has to be ranked somewhat highly, and it has that strange feel to it, like something you shouldn't really like.. but you just do7/10.
