Music Library Challenge

Hey music loving friends, 

So I have this music advisor, Michael Adamczyk, he's about 70 and he's been teaching me composition.  He's a really talented guy and composes a lot of music himself.  His style is fairly modern along the lines of Villa-Lobos.  Anyway, we were having this talk about "the kids these days" and modern music etc and he was saying basically that only it's only interesting to listen to classical music or possibly jazz and everything else is boring and repetitive.  Which I sort of agree with... I mean, if you take the lyrics out of most music, it is pretty repetitive...

HOWEVER I know there is some really interesting music going on in the pop, alternative and electronic world.  I just don't know where it is.

Anyway, I'm trying to come up with some music that isn't classical, jazz, or written before 1955  that I would consider musically interesting or particularly lovely, as in interesting harmonies, rhythms, techniques etc.  I don't think that production or lyrics is particularly important...

Do you have any suggestions of  a song or two to put on my CD of "Ten songs that prove there is hope for humanity"?

PS: I just gotta put a Beatles song on my CD...  which one?  My kid voted "Here Comes the Sun"  Maybe the Medley from Abbey Road?
PPS:  Extra points for an example of musically or technically impressive Rap.  LOL

When it's a relevant part of questioning it couldn't bother me less. I don't care about talking about discharge, blood, pain, etc. Really not a big deal.

When some patient mentions sex out of context and looks at me like he wants a high five, then it's inappropriate on his part.

I'm still in awe over how fantastic HAFT is because you've made Chuck Norris cry and rocked "Damn, I'm good" in the space of two or three strips.

Plus, the generic French phrase appropriated by the Talking Heads was also cool.

I can say this with 100% certainty... it wasn't a GameStop guy, because there are no GameStops in Canada.

Ah. I guess that does make sense.

I do happen to be a slavering Talking Heads fan, too. So that may have had something to do with it.
