I'd echo previous posts recommending Clementine as a music player.
Honourable mention for puddletag, a simple but invaluable app for cataloguing and tagging your music collection.
My other favourite is FastStone Image Viewer. Designed for Windows, it is almost the only reason why I have Wine on my Linux system.
FastStone provides both the facilities to organise photos (numbering/dating/renaming) and a range of options for tweaking images (cropping, adjusting colour, etc). As an organiser it is more flexible and less intrusive than Picasa used to be. As an image-processing app it is hugely less complex than Gimp.
I have tried Shotwell, Ristretto and Digikam, and also XnView. But FastStone offers more versatility and more options than these, while remaining user-friendly. Now if only the FastStone people would develop a version for Linux!
