The ship wound up on the shore of this....
Okay, several ideas on one theme. I'll only hit you with them one at a time, so as not to overtax your huge craniums. (You've got to be smart, you're reading this, right?)
The theme is this: You are trapped on a deserted isle, ala Gilligan (god rest our Little Buddy's soul), or closer to the theme, Tom Hanks in Castaway. Bear this in mind, as the theme will crop up again in the not so distant future.
Amidst all the Fed Ex packages, you can't resist opening just one. Inside is a solar powered CD player and five CDs, which just so happen to be your ultimate choice of "I can only listen to five for the next undetermined period of time, so these are my best of the best". What CDs are they?
I just came up with this idea, so I don't even have my 5 narrowed down yet (my ultimate list is about 20-25...). I'll post 'em in the comments, later.

Is there any way we can open a package with an MP3 player full of a couple hundred songs?
This is HARD.
Mark Knopfler - Golden Heart
If Music Be the Food of Love - Various Artists (Ren, Baroque and early Classical)

Simon & Garfunkle: Wednesday Morning 3AM

Various: Classics for Romance (general all purpose nice and peaceful classical)
Sorry for the delay. Been busy. Real busy...
Here's my five:
Van Halen: Diver Down (Old School VH. Love this album.)
Meatloaf: Bat out of Hell (Great songs, fun to sing along. Scream along.)
The Essential Mozart (Quintet for Strings has to be one of the most relaxing songs, ever. If you're not familiar with it, think of the song Winchester was trying to get the Chinese musicians to play on the final episode of MASH.
Eagles: Hell Freezes Over. (Reunion tour, awesome.)
Dennis Leary: Lock and Load (Some of the funniest stuff to come down the pike...)
Interesting excersice :)
Light Rain "Dream Suite" doubles for soul calming and dancing
Missing Persons Nothing better for those valley girl moments
David Bowie: Guess I have to settle for the Best of, but man will I miss the "B" sides
MI2 Movie soundtract: all but the last few are head banging, high energy, get-aggresive songs
Vivat 2: yeah, one is awesome, but life without "Bawdy Women?" The song is just too much fun, and there are so other great songs on this one.
PS Ummm, surprise Turtle. Guess you never know who reads your blog ;)
Wow, Thorunn, Missing Persons. I haven't thought about them in a decade or so. I wonder if I still have my old Spring Session M album?
Only 5 of them, hmmmmm:
1. Meat Loaf Greatest Hits (of course)
2. Queen Classic
3. Chieftains (anything)
4. Moody Blues
5. Vivaldi Four Seasons
(Sorry this took so long - too much work to do)
