Completely agreed and then some.
 
Likewise, I can not say enough about all these.
 
Probably because I like weird stuff, and fun stuff, I did vote for Amarok. But that list is down right almost impossible! 

This must be some kind of breakthrough for us.Beer

My introduction to Mike Oldfield was Wind Chimes, and it's still my favorite song by him.
