hmmmm..tough....but i'll have to say Nivek87 wins...he had more diversity, and it seems like it would be a mix that you could listen to over and over...but in order i'd say:
1st-Nivek87
2nd-El jeffe
3rd-aolsux
4th-myaimistruex3 (broke the CARDINAL RULE...no more than one of the same band...this IS a competition....)

you should pick up his greatest hits album 'overnight success' sometime, full of magic. everything from upbeat anthems, to horns, to acoustics. the thing with dave is, live he is a million times better than on disk

Boo for non-broadband. I did just spend $545 on rent today though, so I'll have to wait for my next paycheck to see how the cashflow is (I say that because I had to take out a $500 cash advance on my credit card to pay my rent....).

I vote for Nivek87. Many on that list are some of my favorite piano-driven songs of recent memory.
