30 Day Song Challenge -- in one day!

A bunch of my friends on facebook have been doing this 30 day song challenge. I'm not motivated enough to actually deal with it every day, plus I get really annoyed with how much it clutters up my newsfeed. But it seemed like an interesting idea, and I do love music. So, lovely readers, here goes a whirlwind tour through my iTunes library! 


All of the links go to youtube videos. Some of the videos are worth watching (specifically, the video for "Le Lion Est Mort Ce Soir". That is one worried hippo) and some of them are just nice music.


I thought it was only fair to do two versions of this list -- one for classical music and one for non-classical music.
