In high school, I earned Quill and Scroll honors for writing record reviews and features for the newspaper. Since everyone's a critic, here comes my two cents on the tunes stored in my iPod (Why didn't I invent one?).
Electronic's "Getting Away With It" is superb, lush, melodic, danceable techno pop. Electronic was a studio band in the mid to late 80's, featuring some members of New Order and the Pet Shop Boys; their respective bands' sounds influence the melody and the teasing but honest lyrics: "I love you more than you love me."
On my Pod, I have downloaded the seven-minute version; it seems to make my time on the elliptical trainer pass by in strokes of strings. It's a song I never get tired of listening to--it, oddly enough, helps to heal a broken heart.
