Okay, here’s my list… (silence)… hahahahaha, I know nothing of this “new music” you speak of. Although, I do enjoy seeing songs you’ve given me appear on this list. And on that note, I’ve been checking the mail. Nothing. Should I expect to get my third installment in person?
PS- I enjoyed your top ten countdown, as well.
