5.) All Time Low
6.) Coldplay
7.) Queen
8.) Cobra Starship
9.) This Beautiful Republic

I'm not going to defend each and every one of my faves right now, but that's my list. Like it or don't, I don't really care, because I probably don't like all of your favorites, either! Hehehe, see how things work here? ^.^

So, hmm. Obviously my taste in music is super diverse. Or, well, maybe it's not that obvious from my top 10 list, but who else do I like? Well, I dunno, let's see!

- Sliimy (thank you, Perez Hilton!)
- Eminem (for sure.)
- Kanye West (sorry, but I dislike Taylor Swift, so Kanye can still be my friend!)
- Lady Gaga (shut up. She grew on me!)
- David Cook (another entry for another day, but I'm a super American Idol fiend.)
- Jason Mraz (favorite album= Mr. A-Z. Most deffs.)
- Switchfoot (sometimes infiltrate my top 10s.)
- Keith Urban (country never did anyone any harm!)
- Teddy Geiger (poor man's John Mayer? Maybe so. But his is one of the few CDs I have memorized in its entirety.)
- The Cure (Disintegration ftw.)
- Tegan & Sara ("Nineteen" and "The Con" are two of my all time favorite songs.)
- Escape The Fate (Ronnie Radke era.)

... and last but not least...

- The Beatles!

... Um, you thought that one needed explaining? Pshaw.

So, my mission here on Operation: Wake The Dead is simple. Music is my life. Talking about music is my sustenance. I'm here to spread the love! I'm here to turn up your speakers! I'm here to teach, to share, but most of all...

To wake the dead!

So until next time, enjoy some more little tidbits, 'kay? Love and such! xoxo.
