How many times have you listened to number one?
93

Is this your favorite band?
Well, one of them at least =) It’s hard to pick just one.

What got you into number one?
I can’t really remember where I heard them the first time, but I loved them right away. I love the beat in their songs, and their music makes me happy in some way.

Why the hell have you listened to that so much?
I have listened to them a LOT more than what it says here. First of all, I listened to them more when I wasn’t a member here. And I listen to them a lot on my stereo. I listen to them that much because the songs are so great and I love to sing along.

Favorite songs of number one:
…

Kalajoki is this small smelly place somewhere in Finland. It's basically known just for it's nice camping area. And every midsummer (which is a big thing in Finland) there's a festival. This year I decided to try it out, Kalajoki being only ~60km from where I live.

The festival started on thursday. We arrived early, set up our tent and went exploring. At 6 pm the first band started.
It was Bloodpit. I didn't like it at all, and it had very few watchers anyhow. But the singer had interresting clothes.

Next was Poets of the Fall. It was great! I had heard they suck live, but they didn't. Maybe I like them too much to notice, but their stage charisma was good! The singer really got everybody in a good mood. He had everyone singing stuff like "who-oo" and such. Their hits Late Goodbye, Carnival of Rust, Illusion and Dream and Lift were the best, 'cause the audience was in to them most. I personally liked Sorry Go 'Round the best. Poets of the Fall was definately worth seeing, and I really want to see them again some time. …

I thought it would be fun to write a few comments to the music I listened to last week. Because sometimes the music I listen to has something to do with what I've done that week. Not this week though.. I don't think so at least.

Black Eyed Peas
Actually, I haven't been listening to that many song by Black eyed peas.
But I listened to Pump It many times. I downloaded that song after hearing it on "So you think you can dance". Or well.. when I heard it on the show I didn't know the name of the song or the group that had done it. But then I found a music video by Black Eyed Peas and I decided to watch it. And there it was =). I don't even know why I like Black Eyed Peas, because it's not my kind of music at all. But I do.

Uniting Nations
I've been listening a lot to Uniting Nations this week too. I can listen to their music no matter what mood I'm in. It makes me happy =P And I know the lyrics to all the songs, so that's a good thing too.

Gavin DeGraw

1. Drug Store Cowboy (36)
- A rather new band for me, I've listened to them only a few months. They're great, but their music has been pretty hard to find. XP The most listened songs from them this week were Liberal and 2nd Time. No surprises there, especially Liberal is a fantastic song!

2. Anna Tsuchiya (32)
- Another new one, I just got some of her songs last weekend! I was really bored and wanted to sample some new music, so I got a few of her singles and a remix album. I'm not so keen on the remixes, but the singles were pretty good. Most listened song Change your life.

3. GACKT (31)
- Clearly not surprising. Even though I thought I'd listened to him more this week... Oh, well. Most listened song past week Redemption. Again, not surprising. …
