As MySpace are relaunching their music site, they’re doing this by letting some celebs give up their playlists. You’ll find them all here. A lot picked out Jay-Z’a – “Empire State Of Mind” which felt…calculated. Now, who cares about what “The Vatican” picks? 2Pac? Three cheers for calculations. And R. Kelly selecting Fall Out Boy? Woo. Kings of Leon also feels like a blighted pick.

Now, Lady Gaga picking Faith No More and Elton John though is just sweet, but Britney picking both Elton’s “Tiny Dancer” and Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin’” is just cool beyond comparison. Florence and The Machine picked my 2nd fave Madonna track (the first one – of course – being “Cherish“, beyond all) not to mention “Crazy In Love” and that ole Dusty track that features in “Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels“.

Here are my faves:
