I DID WASTE MY TIME AND MONEY ON(CD'S/RECORDS/ETC...): I dunno, in general, all the crap I got to round out my playlist.
GLAD I DIDN'T WASTE MY TIME AND MONEY ON (CD'S/RECORDS/ETC...): The Shaman King SFOV set ($120 for 12 songs. I just downloaded it, because at that price they deserve to get ripped off.)
WHAT WERE THEY THINKING? (EVENTS/ALBUMS/ETC...): See above.

OVERALL GRADE: A+. At the beginning of the year, I had only a few CDs. By mid-January, there were 2 anime mp3s lurking in my 'misc.' playlist. Around February I had 6. In March, the number had jumped to 10, but the site I had previously downloaded from took down their mp3s to save bandwidth. And then, on April 4th, I got Ryuuro. That one song eventually led me to download enough to make a separate anime playlist, consisting of 20 songs. Soon after that, my friend Vy-chan gave me enough music to double it. And on the morning of June 12th, while looking for an mp3 of Duvet, I ended up doubling my playlist again. I now have 200 songs downloaded, not to mention 4 new CDs, so I'd say this was a pretty good year for music.

Oh, and sorry for the essay ;;;;

C+ overall.

I like them but their 9 minute long videos are very annoying and I honestly, don't see why they need to take up half of the air time on most of the music channels.

OVERALL GRADE: A-

I was going to try to limit this to stuff that most people would have actually heard of and stuff that was actually released in 2005, but then I realized I haven't listened to the actual radio in ages. So I'm sorry, you're going to have to deal with dated and/or French/Japanese music listings.

MOST DETESTABLE ARTIST/BAND: Destiny's Child, Usher, Kanye West
WORST SONG: Golddigger (Thankfully I've only been subjected to a few seconds of the song, but to be fair in selecting it, I looked up the lyrics and found them to be as offensive as I assumed)
I DID WASTE MY TIME AND MONEY ON(CD'S/RECORDS/ETC...): Neon Genesis Evangelion OST - just not as good as I hoped.
GLAD I DIDN'T WASTE MY TIME AND MONEY ON (CD'S/RECORDS/ETC...): The latest Bon Jovi CD
WHAT WERE THEY THINKING? (EVENTS/ALBUMS/ETC...): Duran Duran's comeback was laughable. And Bon Jovi's "Have a Nice Day" is just so cheesy. Catchy, but still...*cringe*
