Desert island

I'm taking Music 100 to satisfy a Fine Arts core requirement. I wasn't expecting much. On the first day of the class, the professor asked everyone to name one album they would take with them if they were trapped on a desert island, and the answers were, well, embarrassing. I wrote down the names of the bands that were mentioned.

• Dave Matthews
• Linkin Park
• Rise Against
• "Death metal
• Pearl Jam
• "Musical soundtracks
• Maroon 5
• "Guitar Hero III"
• Lamb of God
• Jack Johnson
• The Eagles
• "A mix CD" (that's cheating)
• Prodigy
• Jack Johnson (again)
• Lil' Wayne
• Jack Johnson (again again)
• 'N Sync
• Spamalot soundtrack
• Across the Universe soundtrack
• Dave Matthews (again)
• Across the Universes soundtrack (again)

Seriously.

In the class's defense, there were a couple people who named Radiohead, Miles Davis, John Coltrane, and a few other notables, including one kid who dropped Daft Punk's Alive 2007 and instantly became my new best friend. The professor chose The Beatles' "The White Album."
