Neville, how could you do me like this?

In what may be one of the most traumatic episodes EVER, last week I plugged in my iPod to charge the battery and it blue screened my computer. And then, when the computer rebooted and iTunes came back up, my pod started syncing up, only instead of syncing up, it synced down and proceeded to wipe itself clean. Yeah, you read that right. Two years, five computers and 5000 songs worth of work are all gone. And of course the Apple Geniuses were of no help, they basically said, "Yeah, your music is gone, no we don't know why, but your pod seems fine."

And it's not just the music -- although that REALLY smarts -- if you have a pod you know the time you take with it. You put in artwork and you make sure things are spelled right and capitalized and you create your own genres and playlists and you hug it and love it and call it George!

*sigh*

Like I said, there aren't any words, but if you've gotten music from me in oh, like EVER, or you have anything you think I'd like, I am asking you to help me out and put it in this post. Pop, rock, classical, old skool hip-hop, new wave, old wave, old classics, country, motown, jazz, blues, drinking songs, live songs, 420 songs, grunge, rap, comedy, britrock, britpop, kids songs, christmas songs, working out songs, 80s, 90s, 70s, covers, disco, you name it and chances are I would like it. I thank you in advance. I have to go take a Xanax.


ETA: To make life easier for you giving souls, you should know that I have 300+ CDs waiting to be loaded on my Pod, if I decide it's still trustworthy, so you don't have to give me whole albums of stuff, maybe just a zip with some of your favorite songs, that would totally be awesome too.

I am looking for my sanity. And Theodore's pants. But mostly my sanity. I reckon Neville has Theodore's pants.

Neville most likely does have Theodore's pants. An' he's not giving them back.

For some reason I have 60 of Burt Bacharach's greatest hits on my iTunes right now. I bet you want those, don't you?

I have some nice Portishead though to make up for it. Do you want some nice Portishead and a shitload of Radiohead live B sides?

What else do I have to hand without actually plugging anything in?? *looks*

Err, kind of random but easy to upload albums include Gogol Bordello, The Coral, The Rakes, Bob Marley, Jay-Z, Joss Stone, Jarvis Cocker, The Good, The Bad and the Queen.

Anything appeal?

Raindrops keep falling on my head -- hook me up with that mp3! And some nice portishead and obviously Radiohead live b-sides = YIS PLZ! I dunno what Gogol Bordello is, but it sounds like a bit of cheese. Bob Marley, Jay-Z and Jarvis are always welcome round these parts. I've not heard The Rakes either, plz to try out.
