Bruce Hornsby lives in this extremely high-end gated community in Williamsburg, VA and goes out in public and waits for people to recognize him. Apparently he once stopped by the student-run coffeehouse at William and Mary and played the piano for a really long time without anyone knowing who the weird old guy playing the piano was.

so I've been browsing iTunes Celebrity Playlists, and Corey Taylor (the lead singer dude from Slipknot/Stone Sour) has three songs in the Stone Sour playlist -- and they are by Sarah McLachlan, Elvis Costello and Ray LaMontagne. i was like...what?

Tom Morello has Bright Eyes' "Road to Joy" on his playlist, lolz

"Road to Joy" (Track 5): "Conor Oberst is one of my favorite young songwriters. Every couplet cuts to the bone and this song rocks hard in a hillbilly fashion."

RZA has three of his own tracks on a playlist of 9 songs -- one Wu-Tang song, and two RZA solo joints. So dude has a big ego, why am i not surprised?

included by RZA among the other 6 songs: Barbra Streisand and Kenny Loggins.

Mike Shinoda of Linkin Park has MIA in the #1 slot on his playlist, and just raves about the song:

"Bucky Done Gun" (Track 1): "This song by MIA was practically the theme song that tour. I think our crew was sick of hearing it! At any rate, I think that's what one of my favorite things about music is: those times when hearing a song reminds you of a time in your past, when it connects you directly with the memory every time you hear it. Good song."

and Rammstein's playlist contains Ministry, System of a Down, Pantera, Korn, Marilyn Manson................

James Blunt's on the other hand, is pretty good - Cat Power, Lou Reed, Pixies, Verve, Outkast, Peter Gabriel, Massive Attack, David Bowie and a handful of others. who'da thunk it?

Carrie Underwood's old playlist was hilarious...it's been replaced with a newer one on iTunes, but nothing is ever lost on the internet. Some choice picks:

30 Seconds to Mars - The Kill
“I have always been an admirer of Jared Leto--from the hotness he possesses in all of the movies he has been in, but who knew he could sing? I was a little skeptical at first of 30 Seconds To Mars, but I fell in love with many of their songs including this one. The vocals and music are intense yet not too hard to feel! This isn't your typical head-banger's song. It's tough, but melodic.”

Rolling Stones - Paint It Black
“I LOVE the Rolling Stones! I love just about everything they have ever done. In fact, if anyone ever sees me in Nashville with the top down, no doubt that they will most likely get a dose of the Stones’ Forty Licks album. I liked this song particularly because it makes no sense! It is mysterious and sexy and I like that!”
