Learn something new every day

So, I logged on to iTunes to download the totally awesome song "Travelin' Thru" by the equally awesome Dolly Parton (which is currently a free download), when I clicked on the "beta" recommendations. I thought this was just a list of songs that iTunes spotlights. No - it is a list of songs just for me! I might have been tipped off by the words, "just for you!" next to the "beta" sign, but since I've only just started browsing and purchasing from the iTunes store, tonight was the first I noticed. Anyway, iTunes now has recommendations of songs I might like based on said purchases. And you know what? They are pretty much on-target. Unfortunatly, my last $.99 in my iTunes account was spent on Kansas's song "Dust in the Wind" so I couldn't take them up on any of their suggestions. Not unfortuante is that I did purchase "Dust in the Wind," which is a great song.
Highlander: The Series fans may remember it from when Tess died on the show. Following her death, the song was played often - usually while Duncan was depressed over the death of his love. Since I never loved Tess, I was happy enough to see her go, but even more happy to hear this song. I love Highlander and I love this song.

Love between a mortal and immortal will always end in tragedy. Great show, though.
