“The 12 Days AFTER Christmas” Giveaway: Day 2
[Thank you – we have our winner, this contest is now closed. Congrats to faithful Macenstein reader Adam!]
On the Second Day After Christmas, Macenstein gave to you (or, more accurately, gave you a chance to win…) A pair of Creative EP-830 Earphones!
Do you hear what I hear? Well, you might, once you pop these bad boys into your ears! Ergonomically designed with 3 differently-sized earbuds to accommodate any ear (assuming you’ve never worked in a circus sideshow), these in-ear earphones offers extra comfort and excellent noise-isolation capability for your music listening pleasure.
To enter: Well, I’m always looking to broaden my musical tastes a bit, so since this is an audio-related giveaway, leave me a comment where you tell me the one song I should be listening to, in your opinion. Winner will be picked randomly 7 days later and notified (kind of like in The Ring, only with less killing… we hope). Open to all readers world-wide. Good luck, and thanks for reading Macenstein! (Oh, and be sure to enter ALL our “12 Days AFTER Christmas” Giveaways!)

Well, the song I’ve been listening to recently that I can’t get out of my head is the version of Corcovado done by Everything But The Girl (on the Adapt or Die CD).
Although almost anything Tracey Thorn sings is listenable….
Well, since we’re still in the Xmas season… How about “I’ll be home fir Christmas” from Tony Bennet’s new “Swingin’ Christmas” CD.
In Our Talons, by the Bowerbirds
Ultimo Imperio by Atahualpa
You should listen to “Aqua De Beber” by Sergio Mendes
Hey, Dr. Macenstein, thanks for the great opportunity to win stuff. If I got to choose one song that you should listen to, I’d choose Clocks by Coldplay, because it’s so radically different from everything else, and the lyrics are remarkably subjective.
Here’s a link to Youtube, so if you want to take a listen you can. However, I suggest you keep the video out of site, because the video doesn’t do the song justice.
Ignition by TobyMac is great if you are wearing some really nice headphones. My MBP speakers just don’t cut it…
Hey Doc, Bossa Nova, of course: Girl of Ipanema !
“Seishun Line” by Tokyo Brass Style

Poker Face (Dave Audé Remix) – Lady GaGa
Mmm…
If you’re into Jazz you should give Esperanza a try.
I would suggest Mela but the whole album is great.

Hard to tell to be honest.. I don’t really have that one favorite song.

I like it because it’s different.
