On to the Random Ten. To play: put your digital music player on shuffle, click play, and list the first ten songs that show up. You must resist the temptation to click past the bad or embarrassing songs. Leave your list in comments or trackbacks.

Favorite Album: God, I don’t know. Mutant Disco, maybe? This particular list has a whole lot of great albums. That Rogue Wave album is one of the year’s best for sure, though. After a very slow start, it turns out to have been a pretty decent year for music after all.
