Or your car CD player? I pulled an old favorite off my shelf: Matthew Sweet's 1991 power-pop masterpiece "Girlfriend."
You?

Sufjan Stevens. Two states down, 48 to go. He's a Christian singer I can actually enjoy (the Devil is so much more reliable musically.) Check him out, y'all.
In walkman i listen to Chopin, sometimes Lacrimosa, Rammstein and many others.

I have to echo the earlier comment that an iPod can help cut down on the clutter. I got a 30 GB model and have been slowly going through my 300+ CDs and loading in the ones I want, and setting aside the ones I don't, so I can take them to the used CD store. It's really de-cluttering things for me. Plus, I don't have a stereo system -- I have a Bose sound dock for my iPod. It takes up very little space in my tiny little living room.
Anyway: I'm currently listening to 'True Companion' by Marc Cohn. After that, the next few songs are:
'Motion' by Jan Smith
'Watermark' by Art Garfunkel
'Philosophia' by Guggenheim Grotto
'Falling Slowly' by The Frames
'Songbirt' by Fleetwood Mac
I don't have an iPod, but there's a 6-CD changer in the car. Its current contents:
-"Christ Our Passover" (Easter music from the Cathedral of the Advent in Birmingham, AL).
-Aaron Copeland (conducted by Robert Shaw)
-Henry Purcell, anthems and organ music
-Mendelsohn's Reformation Symphony
-"Vital Spark of Heavn'ly Flame," music about death and resurrection from English parish churches 1760-1840
-Willam Byrd, anthems and motets
My latest mix:
Wanderlust - Bjork
Chicago - Sufjan Stevens
With Friends Like These - Stereolab
Province - TV on the Radio
The Information - Beck
Plantlife - Autolux
I Must Not Think Bad Thoughts - X
Jesusland - Ben Folds
Don't Get Lost in Heaven - Gorillaz
Demon Days - Gorillaz
The Wanderer - U2 w/Johnny Cash
Refuge of the Roads - Joni Mitchell
