Audacious:
* Lightweight & Simple
* Multiple audio support
* Old Winamp alike
* Shorcuts similar as Winamp
* Streaming support & more
* Last.fm Scrobbling

To install it on Ubuntu:

Key in Y and press Enter when you’re asked to install other required packages.

Its alternatives:

2. Songbird – My favourite, read the review.
3. Rhythmbox – It comes pre-installed on Ubuntu
