Would a Free Sheryl Crow Album Make You Register to Vote?

I ain't knocking the effort here - I think it's fantastic that so many celebrities use their fame to try and get people to care about things like presidential elections. And offering an incentive for registering to vote - as Sheryl Crow is offering a free digital copy of her album Detours - is a cool thing to do.

That said, would a free Sheryl Crow album motivate you to register to vote (if you weren't already registered)? If not, whose album would be a good incentive?
