09/21/2006: "iTunes Shuffle"
Song of the Day: Aurora - The Day It Rained Forever
Over in her Vox blog, J put her media player on "shuffle" and listed the first 10 songs that appeared. I thought it would be interesting to see what happened when I did that, given that I have 14,212 songs, spanning 20 genres and 432 artists (not including those only on compilation albums).
I'm just a little bit obsessed with music, in case you can't tell.
And so, I am randomly given:
Radiohead - Black Star
Lunik - Weather
Live - Voodoo Lady
Despina Vandi - Gia (DJ Gregory remix)
Deborah Cox - Where Do We Go From Here
NSync - I Want You Back
Faithless - Donny X
Feist - Gatekeeper (Do Right mix)
Erasure - Home
The Smashing Pumpkins - Obscured
Strangely, it's a pretty good representation of what I listen to. Some rock, some trip-hop, some dance and electronica, and some guilty pleasure pop. The way my dead iPod used to treat me, I thought for sure that the shuffle feature would go into the tiny number of country albums I own and make it look like that's all I listen to.
