Hm, ok, but I guess that leads me to wonder if you *would* use the search box if it returned more useful results for you. I mean, probably hundreds of millions people use Google and find what they're looking for every day, we should be able to match that in the significantly more limited domain of a few thousand music songs. I'm not sure what else to do; clearly we're not going to embed Graphviz for a directed graph of genres in the list...
