My school (which is Wayne State, in the middle of Detroit) had almost the exact same list:
1. DMB 2. Coldplay 3. Jack Johnson 4. The Beatles 5. Green Day 6. R&B 7. Rap 8. The Killers -1 9. Led Zeppelin -1 10. Country
I think this says more about facebook users than members of said schools. Trust me.

In retrospect, I think the funniest thing about Facebook was getting a crush on some girl or another in one of my classes, then tracking said girl down on Facebook and being all excited, only to instantly lose interest at the sight of something like this:
------ Favorite Music: The Fray, Dave Barnes, Dierks Bentley, Snow Patrol, Michael Buble, Hellogoodbye, Honestly, Five For Fighting, John Mayer, Lifehouse, Matt Wertz, Damien Rice, Stephen Speaks, James Blunt, Keith Urban, Jason Mraz, Tim McGraw, Jack Johnson, Cold play, Switchfoot, Gavin Degraw, Maroon 5 ------
And I mean, that's just a generic example. This has probably happened to me dozens of times in my college years. I eventually gave up on girls I dated having good taste in music.

Facebook's algorithms remind me of a well-meaning but obnoxious co-worker who keeps butting into conversations.
"Hey, guys, you hear about what the Red Hot Chili Peppers did now?""Facebook, why do you think any of us care about what the Red Hot Chili Peppers did now?""Lots of people are talking about them.""Are we talking about them? Do we ever talk about them?""I mean. You guys like music, right?""That wasn't the question.""OK, I'll come clean. You seem to be talking about lighting Nazis on fire an awful lot lately, and I thought you could use something to take your mind off things.""So you're suggesting we light Chad Smith on fire? I mean. It's not the stupidest thing you've ever suggested.""Oh, no, I didn't mean..." (face turns beet red, runs away)
