Oliver's Army is one of my favorite EC tunes. Excellent choice. I have a few personal mix CDs for my truck and it is on more than one of them. I have never liked Metallica too much, and I guess that I like the artisit on your list more than the actual song you chose, but overall it seems pretty listenable to me.

I don't have an ipod, but I listen to Pandora online - it's a great resource, and I've learned of some great artists I would never have discovered otherwise.

My favorite channels currently:

The Early November
Chasing Cars (Snow Patrol)
Paint it, Black (Rolling Stones)
While My Guitar Gently Weeps (Beatles/George Harrison)
Portastatic
Evanescence (especially because that one gets me songs by Guano Ape)
Colin Hay
Pink Floyd
Nick Drake
The Waterboys

I love this song. The others are good too. But I love California Stars.

Of that list, I only know of Death Cab for Cutie and Aimee Mann. I'm more familiar with Mann when she was with 'Til Tuesday in the mid 80s

Pandora is a great way to find new music. I listen to it a lot at work.

My favorite channels currently:

Evanescence (especially because that one gets me songs by Guano Ape)
Guano Ape does a great cover of Big in Japan by Alphaville, which I consider their greatest song, far better than their most popular song Forever Young.

And I too enjoy Pandora. I was listening to Pinback channel yesterday. Lots of good stuff. The Early November is great too. I just saw them in December I believe. Check out Mae and The Rocket Summer too if you're a fan of The Early November.

Thanks. I'll try them out.

My favorite Alphaville song from the Forever Young album is actually the first one - a Victory of Love. I also like Fallen Angel.

I enjoy Alphaville - while they were popular in the U.S. in the 80's, they're still going in Europe - they've got some pretty good stuff that's much more recent, too. They did this huge box set with dozens of songs - I think it retails for about $200 - I'd love to get my hands on that.
