Do a search in iTunes for workout music. There are people
sets of music based on tempo. You can download slower, medium, or faster sets.
cute music site...
Someone just sent us this neat site: www.theradio.com Type in any song title and it will keep playing songs from that era.
You do it in iTunes - SM
You can make different play lists in iTunes. It will show your iPod (when it's plugged into the computer) on the left side of the screen, and you can right click and select new play list. It's really easy!
I am using itunes, but I also downloaded
some songs from Wal-Mart and I get the message, "WIndows Media Player cannot copy the file because the license associated with the file restricts it." How do I get past this??
iTunes and Outback

I think you have a conflict between windows and iTunes...
probably, Windows Media Player is set as the default. I use iTunes, and when I installed it, I set it as my default player, and I only use iTunes for all of my music "work" on the computer. Try putting a regular music CD into your computer. You might get a message with a list of programs to play the CD. Select iTunes, and there should also be a little checkbox that says something like "set as default" or "only use this program for this type of file" Something like that.
Once you get it going, you should simply be able to drag the music you want right over to your iPod on the left side of the screen in iTunes and just drop it in.
When I first got my iPod, I also had problems. It's very frustrating! My husband gave it to me for a birthday gift, and I was so frustrated that I threatened to just throw the thing out (iPod, not husband). Now, however, I think that the iPod is the best thing to happen since man walked on the moon! Just wait until you start subscribing to podcasts!
I use itunes. 99 cents per song...
I like it. I just use my debit card, and I can make a great mixed CD for $15 to $20. You can also download a lot of CDs for $10, which is a great deal. I have heard some people complain about the sound quality, but I don't have any nice stereos, so I wouldn't know the difference! Once you download itunes you can also preview each song before you buy it, which is great. It's totally legal, and 99 cents per song isn't bad. Itunes is the only one I've used, so there may be better ones out there, but I'm happy with it.
You can, but I find iTunes to be easier.
iTunes and iPods play well together. Rhapsody works, but it will put music in a different library on your computer unless you specify that iTunes and Rhapsody are using the same. Also, anything you purchase through the iTunes Store can be transferred from your iPod to your computer. That came in handy when my hard drive died! I hear that you can do that with your non-iTunes purchases, but it sounded complicated to me. I just find iTunes is easier to deal with.
MUSIC
Don't forget (and I can't remember who sings it)...Celebrate!! I am in my 30s and we always [and still do sometimes (shh..my kids think we're weird)] like to dance to Lynyrd Skynyrd.
Also, I'm not a big fan but most of the people I know like Jimmy Buffet.
Hope that helps!!
Music
Has anyone tried listening to a CD while you work?? I accidentally stumbled across this as my son was blaring some of his music. But there are a couple of CDs of his I like I play them in the background, it helps me concentrate and improves my speed. Am I the only weird one???
I like music as well....
I've found that it keeps you focused, but I was used to listening when I worked full-time on-site. I am quite accustomed to background noise from when my children were young, but now that they are in school, it makes me feel "not so lonely". I do not, however, prefer the TV blaring unless it is on a music channel. I think it is quite soothing, and I'm not real sure why.... lol
music
I always have a CD playing in the background but it's got to be something soothing and relaxing like Enya. Being home alone all day can be really boring and lonely without it. I find it really too quiet otherwise. 
DVDs, CDs, what do they like? music, TV?
Looking for music to exercise by - sm
I received an iTunes gift card for Christmas and am looking for music I can download to my iPod to exercise by. I'd really like exercise-specific music that includes a slower song or two for the warmup, then a steady faster rhythm for 30 minutes or so and then another slower song for the cooldown.
I suppose I could create my own list, but it would take me way too long to figure out 30 minutes' worth of songs with the same basic rhythm!
Any help sure would be appreciated. I'm so tired of feeling guilty every time I walk past the treadmill that I just "had" to have.
Filthy rap music...
The teachers have to take turns doing "car duty" in the afternoons, making sure the car riders get in their vehicles safely. Well, yesterday, a mother pulls up with 5 of her children in tow, and had 5 more children at this elementary school where my daughter works. One of her children is in my daughter's classroom and so my daughter called her over to put her on the car. When she opened the door, she said the music playing was pure filth, and in 5 seconds, she heard the "n" word, the "b" word, the "f" word, and what this woman should wrap her legs around, if you know what I mean. Now, this "mother" of all 10 children, has the music up so loud, she doesn't even realize her door is open and the teacher is standing there with her 8 year old daughter in hand. A 12 year old in the backseat hollers out, mamma, the teachers at the door, to which the mother nearly swallowed her tongue, and quickly turns the music off. My daughter said I wanted to tell her if you're not ashamed of that filth you listen to and let your children listen to, then why turn it down on my account? She must be a proud mom letting her daughters hear that filth, degrading women to less than dirt. So, that's 10 more children and several girls who will grow up sadly with that crap music and sadly enough, the music producers making a mint off of their ignorance. Some can't afford lunch money, but they can sure darn afford a $20 CD full of filth. But, if course, when the kids are repeating this nasty lyrics in class and have to be reprimanded, I suppose the parents think that the teachers' fault too.
I don't listen to music, but I have the TV SM
on in the room next to me. Can't miss my Golden Girls. It just relaxes me and I feel like someone is here and the mood is lightened if I am stressed. 
What kind of music is on your
Mine is a mixture of 60s, 70s, 80s, and everything in between. I have Van Halen, Elton John, Fergie, George Jones...just to name a few. My kids listen to it and can't understand the combination, but it's just music I like. So, what's on yours? I'm looking for some suggestions to add to my collection...
Anyone download music?
I just want some songs to burn onto a CD to listen to in my car or my home stereo. I don't have any fancy iPod or MP3 player. My brother uses a site that does file sharing and I cannot/do not want to use a site like that. I don't trust them! Are there any sites that don't do file sharing? I looked at Napster, but it won't give you the price unless you fill in all of your info (name, e-mail). Any ideas? Thanks!
Turn on some music (sm)
go to a tanning bed if you do that sort of thing...maybe after work? Sounds like Seasonal Affective Disorder?
snow music...sm
Enjoy! Cat

Walmart here has the music CD for $10 (sm)
Not sure if they have the actual cartoon...I love how it puts the season back in the right perspective. I also think the fact that I have been watching it around Christmas since I was a kid has something to do with it helping me feel "Christmasy". The CD is really good though-I've seen the cartoon so many times I can picture it while I'm listening to the music and doing other things.
At least you've got music - LOL (nm)

forgot to put in music...

Downloading music
You have to download the music to your computer, then you can save it on the CD. I use an iPod, but they do have restrictions. IPods are set up as MP4 files rather than MP3, so you can't transfer the music back and forth from an iPod to say, a Zune. I love the iPod and iTunes, though. I'm big on the instant gratification aspect of being able to download the music, movies, and TV shows that I want. I have 2 iPod Video and I use them both quite a bit.
About the free music - I don't know about those. It's my understanding that any free music site is basically illegal (I could be wrong, though). I've always paid for mine, so I don't know much about it.
Any Music lovers out there?
My anniversary was last week, and I had no idea what to get my husband, so I made him a guitar pick necklace. He really liked it and I had two or three people ask me to make them one, so I decided I would make some and see if people liked them. Here's a picture of a few I made.
If anyone's interested let me know! Or if you have any ideas! I went to Micheal's this weekend and bought a bunch of goodies so I'll be making more!
How do you get your neighbor to keep the music down
This is very frustrating for us. There is a degenerate 16-year-old kid next door (bully of the neighborhood). When his parents are not home (or at least we believe they are not home) he sits outside and plays music (if that's what you call it) in his car radio. It vibrates inside the house and all we can hear is THUMP, THUMP, THUMP, THUMP. DH has asked him over and over and over to keep the noise down, and he turns it down, that is until the next day or two. I was thinking of asking our police to come by and explain to him and his family of a noise ordinance in this town, but they've cut back so much in police don't think they would do that. - Okay as I'm writing DH just got so p.o.'d he flew out the door and is going asking him to keep it down, but this will only last for the day.
Anyone have any suggestions? Have concerns about getting his parents involved cos the last lady who told him to do something he muttered under his breath (not loud enough for her to hear, but we heard him) "Shut the F up or I'll come and kill you".
Okay, another part of the story. DH just came in and evidently the mother is home. DH was going to say something but the kid was out in front with his little gang friends and he said to his mother "hey mom, the people down around the corner just complained about the music. How could she hear it all the way down there. We were here first so they can move. I think I'll go down and pee on her lawn". So...evidently the mother does know. DH just looked at him and didn't say anything and the degenerate walked over to the car and turned down the music.
Any suggestions.

Any country music fans out there?
I have just recently started listening to country (I love just about all kinds of music except rap) and I totally love the song and video from Gretchen Wilson "Come to Bed" almost makes me want to pick a fight with my hubby.
sorry...just ask. They're much more aware of music than you think! :) nm

Imagine the music in Heaven now!

Do you listen to music while you work?? (sm)
I do sometimes if I get sleepy or if my mind starts to wander. Not anything with words that I would pay attention to, mostly just music, fast paced helps me type faster - anyone else? Just curious
I LIKE e-cards... animation, music, etc.
card as long as it has a written message with it, and not just a mass-produced 'newsletter'. If no personal note comes with it, the sender just wasted a stamp.
A little holiday music fun. See link.

Pianists out there - I need music for a funeral
for a friend who is dying - the Irish tune, Danny Boy. He has asked that it be played at his funeral. Would anyone be willing to send me a copy? I will pay for postage. Thanks.
I've always loved MJ's music. He will -(sm)-
sure be missed by me and my circle of friends!
What's really weird is how I learned of his death. I was typing a just-dictated, STAT report, and for I few moments the doctor stopped talking to look through her notes. I overheard two nurses in the baqkground, and one was telling the other that Farrah Fawcett and Michael Jackson had both died today. So I checkded the news online, and sadly, it was true.
I also feel sorry for all the people who had tickets to one of his big concerts in London this summer.... something I'd have LOVED to attend. What a profound disappointment!

Johnny Mathis music trivia....
Any Johnny Mathis fans out there from the 1960's. I'm trying to find a song that he sang that went something like this.....
"One look, one meeting, two hearts as one beating..... one look and I knew....... "
I think I only had one album by him called "heavenly" and I finally found it on line, but it does not list that song and I cannot figure out where else I would have heard it from. It's driving me nuts...anyone remember it?
The music is really good. I've already downloaded
Music groups you are too embarrased to admit you like
Anyone out there love a musical group (or person) but are too embarrassed to admit it. You know, the kind that your friends make fun of but you secretly say to yourself, I love that music. - Mine are:
Village People
Glen Campbell (Wichita Lineman) - Excellent video on youtube
Bay City Rollers
And most all disco music (Bee Gees, Super Freak Rick James, Taste of Honey, KC Sunshine Band)
I grab my CD player and jump around to good music...
as it really does help! It gets my heart pumping and totally wakes me up. I've been doing that for years. Just put your headphones on and go!
No about Last Comic Standing. CMT is country music television.
!
yes I do, i like soft music, might even have on a CD of Frank Sinatra. Very calming. nm

So put on some holiday music, clean house, and make some
s
I wouldn't even bother with a playlist for holiday music
Your iPod can sort your music by song title, album, artist, and genre, etc. Just click into "genre" and choose to play only "holiday" next year. That's how all of your Christmas music will be sorted.
If genres aren't listed in your music menu, you can go to the first menu, then settings, and then make sure that genre is selected. You can even select shuffle and then play just one genre, and all of your holiday music will be shuffled.
I like the genre settings. If I'm in the mood for jazz, I select just that genre, or I can select rock, country, or whatever. It's a nice feature.
