The New York Senator and former First Lady reveals a playlist that includes the Stones, Beatles, Eagles, and plenty of Motown.
While the current occupier of the White House likes Alan Jackson and "My Sharona," its former resident--weighing a bid for a return trip--prefers the Stones, Beatles, Eagles, and Motown classics.
Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton unveiled the contents of her iPod to the New York Post, becoming the latest big-name politician to do so.
Clinton received the white iPod from husband Bill Clinton last October as a birthday present. Its catalog of 1,000 songs includes The Beatles' "Hey Jude," U2's "Beautiful Day," Aretha Franklin's "Respect," and The Eagles' "Take It to the Limit," as well as the best of Motown and a bevy of classical masterpieces.
"I've got everything--a total smorgasbord," the 58-year-old senator told the Post. "I'm a child of the '60s and '70s."
Clinton said she listens to music on the iPod "whenever I'm in the mood--I'm not an addict," mostly listening while she's doing paperwork at home.
"We have one of these devices that you can plug it in and have it played over speakers, so you don't always have to have it in your ear, which bothers me," she said. "After a while, that can get a little irritating."

Better than Bush's "Dan" McLean.
