(CBS News) Mitt Romney's campaign has revealed the former Massachusetts governor's 19-song playlist on music service Spotify, accessible via his Facebook page.

It's unclear to what degree Romney, who carries an iPad on the road, uses the service: A note announcing the playlist on his Facebook page says "A lot of you ask what Mitt listens to on the road. We compiled a list of favorites and put them on Spotify. Subscribe and let us know what you think."

But the list certainly does seem to reflect Romney's tastes. Romney has said in the past that Roy Orbison, The Eagles, the Beatles and Randy Travis are among his favorites. Perhaps more surprising is his fandom of modern rock band The Killers, which he has also referenced in past interviews.

"I like listening to his music," Romney said on CBS Radio in Michigan ahead of that state's February 28 primary. "I don't actually try to sense their personal family values...I listen to a lot of rock music and country music."

Romney's Spotify playlist includes two Killers songs, "Read My Mind" and "Somebody Told Me," as well as two songs from Orbison: "In Dreams" and "Crying."

Also making appearances are The Soggy Bottom Boys, Clint Black, Johnny Cash and Kerry Underwood, as well as Willie Nelson (for "Over the Rainbow") and Kid Rock, who has endorsed Romney and whose "Born Free" is played at his rallies.

Check the full list out below:

Last time I checked, the Commodores were not a white act. And just because Nat King Cole dates from when Eisenhower and the Republicans ended segregation in the Democrat South doesn't mean it's not good music.

It is absolutely amazing that the only black (sort of) artist on the list is Nat Cole.

Great, so not only are you racist, you're ageist!

Also, last time I checked the Commodores were not a white act.

I wonder how long it took Willard's staff to come up with this list. Probably took some work -- they had to make sure they hit at least one song/artist that they thought would appeal to every major demographic and ethnic group. Probably had to do some serious polling. It's ridiculously transparent. If it was real Willard would be the only guy in the country who listens to both Willie Nelson and The Killers.

[R_Tafoya]

That would be Carrie Underwood, not Kerry.

[mattrick78]

haha! nice catch.

[baileyccc]

He don't listen to Hank, Sr. He will be defeated in Alabama and Mississippi.

[Margarita_In_San_Jose]

That would be "Hank." He doesn't need a modifier.

[Ed_the_Ross]

I'm sorry, no. Mitt Romney doesn't listen to "Somebody told me" by the killers. This was obviously added by a staffer in his or her mid thirties.

The reason The Killers are the list is because the lead singer is a mormon. This is the lamest playlist ever.
