Good songs! If you need some more ideas- check out my favorite radiostation from Philly at http://www.xpn.org. You can stream it live; lots of great music that I think you’d like.

Thanks for bringing us along on your quest to listen to 1,000 new songs–my iTunes has certainly grown from it.
I have a suggestion for songs–Have you heard the new Matisyahu Hanukkah song, “Miracle”? It kicks driedl ass.
I did a post on it at http://www.modernkiddo.com, and thought of you and your list. But you can also find it on Youtube pretty easily.
