HELP iPod sounds like crap!

In the past 1/2 hour my iPod took all my songs and they now sound like crap! The vocals are almost gone in all the songs. If i run it through iTunes and the computers speaker it's all good but if i plug in headphones it sounds so bad. And we've tried different headphones. So i think it's the jack.

These all have a 1 year warenty right?! What should i do? On the bright side, will apple let me upgrade if i take it back and it needs to be replaced?

Thanks
Twister

it happened during the middle of a song. And the equilizer has been the same for weeks. So i doubt that.

Try stroking it tenderly

No, really, try re-starting it (hold Play and Menu at the same time for some time) and see if that might fix it...it's worth a try...
