Pandora Radio is an automated music recommendation service and custodian of the Music Genome Project. Users enter a song or artist that they enjoy, and the service responds by playing selections that are musically similar.

Pandora service is not available outside USA. I didn't know that any such service existed until today which could recommend musically similar songs. Is there any other service which could do the same? For instance, I like The Stranger by Leonard Cohen and They Don't Know by Kirsty MacColl so obviously I would like more such songs.

There's a website grooveshark.com which let's you put together your own radio station. I'm not sure how much work it will do for you or how good it is

The entire "Songs of Leonard Cohen" album is like "The Stranger." You might also enjoy songs by Nick Drake such as "The Cello Song" and anything by Jeff Buckley such as "Hallelujah" (a cover of the song by Leonard Cohen), "Lover You Should Have Come Over" and "Lilac Wine."
 
Thank you, Salad. I have listen all the songs of mentioned album. I will listen songs by other suggested artists.
