Albeit a bit morbid, this eclectic list is sure to expand your musical horizons.

The book-turned-Web site includes everything from ABBA to AC/DC. You can read the blog and buy albums.

You already know my beef with lists and who has the authority to to tell me what to listen to, watch and download. But, despite the lack of gangsta rap, this one seems legit.

I better get crackin' before I bite the dust.

The Knux kick it old-school in their "Cappuccino" video.

The Knux and Fleet Foxes could be the new TV on the Radio and Kings of Leon. (hint: They might go mainstream soon.) Find out more about them and other hot groups here.

At 8 p.m. Monday, the world was introduced to Jason Mesnick, 32, the most eligible man in America according to ABC's "The Bachelor."

The catch? He's the father of a 3-year-old son. Read a recap of the episode here. Read a blog about the show here.

Holler at all the single parents out there. Do you agree with Mesnick going on the show? Is it harder to date when kids are involved? Click here to comment.

Jay-Z + Radiohead = Jaydiohead

There was just one word that came to mind when I listened to ten tracks of Hova rapping over Radiohead beats. Genius. New York City beatmaker DJ Minty Fresh Beats is the mastermind behind this mashup.

In 2004, Danger Mouse took Jay-Z's lyrics and paired them with the Beatles' "White Album" to make the "Grey Album." Who should Hova rap with next?

What's with all the lists?

VH1 tried to pick the "100 Greatest Hard Rock Songs." The two-hour spectacular, which airs at 9 Tuesday night, will no doubt feature video clips and commentary from pop culture icons. I always wonder who has the authority to rank the songs. Some artist always ends up getting snubbed.

It's not just Best of 2008 lists. It seems like more networks, magazines and Web sites are using the list method to capture readers/viewers. Can anyone say overkill? Who really cares what the top 25 "I did it for the money" films are? The only lists that matter to me are the lists of Grammy, Emmy and Academy Award winners. Word.
