Alas, Pandora

[tahnan]

Oh, Pandora, Pandora, I didn't really expect you to know the artist "Joss Whedon"--but not to know "Stephen Sondheim"? This bodes ill for our future together.

(I also have this fear that, every time I don't skip over a Mary Chapin Carpenter song, Pandora says, "Aha! He likes country!")

I think that Pandora is set up mostly to find performers, rather than composers. Or you can search for specific songs: if you enter, say "Send in the Clowns," you'll get a list of options as to who you want to here singing it. It doesn't seem to recognize any of the songs from Once More with Feeling.

I wrote my own mini-rant on stuff missing from Pandora. I find the omission of the Mothers of Invention to be far more incomprehensible than the omission of Sondheim.
