I'll give this a go later (iPod in the car). But what happens if something, for example from High School Musical comes on (it was put on there for my daughter, honestly :oops: ) ?????................do I have to be that honest ?? :moggy: :)

Yes, you do have to be that honest. The explanations are the funniest part. Also seeing tracks from artists that you haven't played for ages, or artists you have never heard. Always good to find new / forgotten stuff.

A few there that I've not come across before 64, but then that's the beauty of a thread like this.......you can pick up songs/artists you've never come across/heard before.

I did try Nitin Sawhney some years ago, after a recommendation, and got the Beyond Skin album but confess to not finding it an easy listen and have rarely, if ever troubled the CD player with it since.

I have 'Beyond Skin' on my shelves however 'Prophesy' album is undoubtedly my favourite Sawhney album, it just flows beautifully :love:
