Pandora

I know – as is the case with all things music – I’m the last to know about this, but if you haven’t sign up for Pandora.

This service is free and it’s fucking stunning. A friend was telling me about it and he said how they don’t have a lot of major musicians, they have good recommendations. So they might not have the Rolling Stones, but they probably have a musical group with a similar style.

I signed up and to be a dick, my first guess was "Weird Al Yankovic." And the program’s like, "Nah, I’m sorry, we don’t have that. We don’t carry much humor. Here’s something, however, that we calculate is musically similar."

And it fucking rocked.

Out of the past seven songs, six have been a perfect fit.

And the one miss was an eighties pop song. Which, all things considered, not too far off.
