^ Hehe, I've always wanted a pretty banner...
So I'm fairly bored, and was wondering which female artists had the most plays. I already knew that Britney Spears had the highest play count, but just thought it may be interesting to see the rest.

1. What's your favorite song by 15?
Howard Carpendale hmmm...
I'm not sure, nothing jumps out at me.
2. How did you get into 20?
Marianne Rosenberg Well I first heard about her on Last.Fm, i think.
3. Who is your favorite member in 1?
Juanes Well i believe he's a solo artist, though the name tripped me up the first time, i thought it was 4 guys named Juan.

4. Whats your favorite lyric bit by 29?
Shakira That's a hard one. I don't listen to her as much as my list might say. I think "Pies Descalzos."

5. Have you ever seen 22 live?
Claudia Jung No. That goes for the majority of the artists on this list, since they're from other countries.

6. What's your favorite album from 10?
Die Flippers No idea. I do love their name though.

7. Do you own any merchandise from 3?
Las Ilegales if free downloads count, which they probably don't, then yes.

Joan Manuel Serrat I guess the first time i heard him, and really liked his voice. I still do.
9. Is there a member of the same age as you in 2?
Udo Jürgens By no means. He's probably in his 60's or something.
10. When did you first get into 8?
Roland Kaiser Probably when i started listening to schläger music.
11. Who likes 4 along with you?
Candeal A few friends, but especially kb7clx

12. Which song did you first hear from 16?
Sin Bandera I think it was Amor Real, and it was probably 6 years ago, after my Spanish teacher got me interested in Latin music.

13. What song made you fall in love with 5?
Georges Bizet The prelude to Carmen. It sounds like something to set off fireworks to.

14. Which song do you not like by 18?
Matthias Reim Hmm, hard one. I like a lot of his songs, even though the majority are the kind of "why-on-earth-does-everything-go-wrong-for-me" type of songs.

15. Why do you like 14's songs?
Heino First of all, he's got a neat voice, and second, he does neat volksmusik.

16. Where did you first hear 6?
Wolfgang Petry Probably the Internet radio station where i first discovered schläger.

17. How long was 19 a singer before you liked them?
La Oreja de Van Gogh I think just a couple years.
18. Does 13 have a song that gives you a bad memory?
Michelle I don't think so.
19. When did you get into 17?
Peter Alexander Probably since joining Last.fm.
20. How long have you been into 9?
Ricardo Arjona Since 2003, again thanks to my Spanish teacher.

21. If 11 had a concert 300 miles away, would you drive there to see them?
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart In this case i think we're talking a particular opera--Magic Flute or the Marriage of Figaro--and it would depend on if i could get a ride.

22. How many CDs do you own of 12?
Drafi Deutscher None.

23. Does 21 have a song that makes you cry?
Mary Roos No, but it takes a lot for a song to do that to me.

24. Does 27 have a song that makes you happy?
Lluís Llach I enjoy listening to most of his songs, and i constantly get "Cal que Neixin Flors a Cada Instant" stuck in my head, especially when i think about or do something with Catalan.

25. Does 23 have a song that makes you smile?
Yaşar Not in particular, but they all sound pretty cool.

26. What's the last song you've listened to from 28?
Erich e Bruno Probably "De Goiania pro Brasil."

27. Is there a song by 32 that you've listened to more than 30 times?
Münchener Freiheit No. I haven't listened to any song that many times, i don't think.

28. What is a song from 50 that you've only listened to once?
Claudio e Rodrigo Hmm, don't know.

29. Is there a song you are sick of hearing by 24?
Andy Borg I don't know.
30. What song got you into 40?
Carola None really

31. What is your favorite single by 25?
Georg Friedrich Händel It's a toss-up between "hallelujah" and "O Thou That Tellest Good Tidings to Zion."

32. If 49 hated you, what would you do?

When I lived in Spain a few years ago, I learnt a thing or two. I learned that Spain is NOT Mexico, as a lot of North Americans are wont to believe, assume, expect. I learned that Mexico is the way it is because of Spain -- The good, the bad, the ugly. I love Mexico, and I truly love Spain. One of the people in Spain that influenced me exponentially was a very beautiful person from San Fernando. I fell in love with her and stupidly messed it up... as I'm very good at doing. So anyway, she had great taste in everything, but I'm not so sure about her music, now that I look back. She had me HOOKED on Spanish pop. I don't know much else about music from the Iberian Peninsula, but whenever I hear Spanish pop, I wax sentimentally and am lost in nostalgia. Here are some of the groups (with the help of last.fm) that I still hear when I think of downtown Cadiz, Jerez, and the beaches of Costa de la Luz & Costa del Sol:

Perchance I wasn't snapping my fingers to latin pop, I was out looking for something more in-country, more folk. After all, Andalusia is the birthplace of flamenco, and one cannot walk through any spanish town any night and not see flamencodancers and/or a spanish guitar, somewhere. So I'd sit down and have a sherry and watch the show. Such great music.

One other thing... There is another part of Iberia, a place to the west called Albufeira in a great country called Portugal. Such great people, great food, and great music. All those years of world influence has come back there in spades. Bossa Novas and Sambas from Brazil. But one of the best experiences is listening to Fado.
