I would have to totally agree with you on that. I'm from the States, but have
been living in Belgium with my (Belgian) boyfriend. There is so much more music
that seems to get played here. He can never believe it when I tell him I don't
know this song or that. It's just that only the same 10, 20 songs ever really
seemed to be played on the radio or MTV (nothings changed I guess). Yeah, sure
we get Backstreet Boys, Britney, Mariah, and such, but there seems to me more
of a variety available here... especially being an "outsider". I never even
heard of Faithless until I met him. It's a shame it's more about business and
making the most money instead of the music.

I get to see them for my 7th time this weekend at the Werchter festival this
weekend. Whoohoo! Can't wait! It should be a good weekend all around actually.
