The mechanics of the interface are a lot more interesting to me than the data. I don’t know how much time I would spend evaluating my song lists but I would totally have fun making things line up and then separate, and navigating through space. I think the wow effect is definitely a good thing.

What about using data that has more of a spacial quality? For instance the locations of the bands for each song (not the best example). This could help could help justify the use of three dimensional space.
