I’ve never really heard much about XP MCE’s sample music in comparison to that of other editions of Windows, but I like it. Good bunch of rock/alt stuff.
Particularly Mark Knopfler, Rosie Thomas and The Shins.
See: “515 am”, “Red Rover”, and “So Says I”. The video for that last one is very entertaining.
