\"\"<\/a>After my tape deck crapped out in 1997, I was stuck listening to either the radio or full albums in whatever order the artist intended. \u00a0That all changed in 2001, when the new-fangled MP3 technology got combined with my new CD burner.<\/p>\n

So, we skip ahead to 2005 with this entry. \u00a0Perhaps nothing interesting happened in music in 2004. \u00a0Along with a couple of television theme songs, we have new music from Snoop Dogg, Tegan and Sara, and Garbage.<\/p>\n
