So we have a subscription to Pandora, the "music genome project." The idea is that you "seed" a channel with one or two songs and then it extrapolates from those to play others that you might like. You can thumbs-up or thumbs-down a given song to sort of train it on what you like. Generally, it isn't bad and I've discovered two or three new groups (e.g., Oysterband) that I really like through them.

When it plays a new song, it offers you the option to query it, "Why is this song playing?" Normally you get answers like, "This song has close harmonies and a folksy sound" or "This song has a strong melody line and a complex backbeat."

This evening we queried a song Pandora played on our Pretorius channel.

The response was, "This song has amazing sackbuttlery."

I can't even bwahahahaaaaaaa type that without laughing :D
