Hell, I'll do the next ten.

John Mayer - Wheel
Do As Infinity - Tooku Made
Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles OCRemix
Rellik - Beneath the Surface (Chrono Trigger remix)

Weird Al - Virus Alert
They Might Be Giants - Weep Day
They Might Be Giants - Now That I Have Everything

Don't know how many that is... but about right. TMBG dominates, with all the other eclectic music I've acquired over the years...

I dont have an Ipod, but I use pandora.

My Pandora lists can be seen here
http://www.thezach.net/music

as a nod to my appreciation of shuffling randomness :

1 Zombies - Care of Cell 44
2 Giant Sand - Muss
3 Modern Eon- The Grass Still Grows
4 Tindersticks- Rented Rooms
5 East River Pipe- I'll Walk my Robot Home
6 Boyd Rice & Friends- History Lesson
7 Stone Roses - I Wanna be Adored
8 Modern Lovers- Roadrunner
9 Tom Verlaine - Nice Actress
10 Peter Cook - Bedazzled (suh-weet)

Why are ipods synonymous with portable music players? They're not the be all and end all.

I put my iriver on shuffle and this is the first 20 that came up:

1. Jem - Maybe I'm Amazed
2. Jen Cloher - Rain
3. Lamb - I Cry
4. Massive Attack - Unfinished Sympathy
5. Portishead - All Mine
6. Regina Spektor - Poor Little Rich Boy
7. Carla Bruni - La Noyée
8. Yann Tiersen - A Quai
9. Air - Cherry Blossom Girl
10. The Audreys - Where Are You Now?
11. Kasey Chambers - Better Be Home Soon
12. Artful Dodger - I Can't Give It Up
13. Katie Noonan - A Little Smile
14. Holly Throsby - By This River

17. Bob Evans - Nowhere Without You
18. Lisa Miller - Motherless
19. Air - Ce Matin La
20. Clare Bowditch & The Feeding Set - Which Way To Go

That's pretty much a good representation of my tastes. There's some video game music and some mainstream pop on my iriver as well that didn't come up.
