Sublime and only sublime. I think I have all the songs including the acoustical ones. My favorites are; Ebin, Pawn Shop, Under my Voodoo, Same in the End, and well... all of their songs.

Lately, the last thing that I found and really liked was Gwen Stephani's latest album.

Historically, I guess the stuff that I got really obsessed with at one time or another was:
Be Bop Deluxe
Genesis
Rush
Public Enemy
Tom Waits
Queesnryche
Bruce Hornsby
Indigo Girls
Geto Boys

The list could probably go on, but...

Over the years,

Metallica (Probably my biggest musical obsession... also the band that pushed me towards picking up an axe!)

and...

Stevie Ray Vaughan

Elliott Smith, bar none

Image

I also really liked Chris Cornell's solo album Euphoria Morning and so I read up on his life around the time I first heard the album. I don't feel very interested in him as a person though, even though I find his lyrics brilliant. He seems kind of scary and high-strung.

Image

In third place would be Mary Lou Lord. I've not kept up with all her music but I was very interested in her friendship with Elliott Smith. My favorite song of hers was actually written by him.

im not "obsessed" with any artist, what happens to me is i tend to get stuck on a song for a while and play it in a loop on iTunes for a while... this is especially common with songs by Cabin Crew originating from the Star to Fall - EP album

When in doubt, ask an autistic. Chances are, they're obsessed with what you need to know. :roll:

Autism Speaks will NEVER speak for me

CLASSIC AUTISM

They Might Be Giants, easily my biggest obsession.

Especially John Linnell and his lyrics.

Probably Portishead. I've been obsessed with other music artists, but that one lasted the longest. Probably because they were the first musical group I ever really took any notice of, and didn't know much about other music at the time.
