Whitney--excellent choices in music. I downloaded Somewhere Over The Rainbow by Israel Kamakawiwo'ole a couple of months ago--just love it! And I have three versions of Ain't No Sunshine, one by Bill Withers, another by Lighthouse Family and the third by Eva Cassidy. I think I got the first two from the Notting Hill soundtrack.
5 most recently downloaded songs:
1-Promiscuous - Nelly Furtado
2-Dani California - Red Hot Chili Peppers
3-Hips Don't Lie - Shakira
4-Be Yourself - Audio Slave
5-True Faith - New Order
