iTunes Meme Party

Scott issued a challenge to see if I could post up a music meme based on iTunes. So, how I did it was to use the Party Shuffle option making sure the 'play higher ranked songs more often' was unchecked, clicked the refresh button three times and got this list:

From a random iTunes shuffle (entire library)…

  1. Jeremy - Pearl Jam
  2. Small Voice (For Speaker in Mouth) - Laurie Anderson
  3. Cure for the Itch - Linkin Park
  4. It's a Sin - Pet Shop Boys
  5. Chorale V (Arama Ivi) - Adiemus
  6. The Downard Sprial - Nine Inch Nails
  7. Maybe We Should Just Sleep On It - Tim McGraw
  8. The Safety Dance [extended version] - Men Without Hats
  9. Sk8er Boi - Avril Lavigne
  10. The Couch - Alanis Morissette

Hey what do you know, Alanis made it on the random list. She should, only have everything she ever published on my iTunes. But then again I have more They Might Be Giants and Tori Amos than her, oh well

What is the total amount of music files on your computer(s)?

Well I have my entire CD collection ripped in archive format (apple lossless) on a 320GB external hard drive but in my actual day to day library that is sync'd to my iPod I have 28.28GB, 4665 Songs that I could listen to 11 days straight without a repeat

The last CD you bought is:

I believe the last physical CD I purchased was FInger 11 because they aren't on the iTunes Music Store. I rarely buy physical CDs anymore. The last iTunes Music Store purchase of a full CD was by The Donnas Gold Medal. I also recently bought I Believe In a Thing Called Love - The Darkness.

What is the song you last listened to before this message?

That would be The Bare Naked Ladies - The Wrong Man was Convicted

Write down five songs you often listen to or that mean a lot to you

  1. Well the most recent 'favorite' would be The Postal Service - Such Great Heights because the first verse reminds me of my wife and me travelling all the time.
  2. Next would be Excuses - Alanis Morissette. Just because I have lots of them, and this lays it out perfectly for me.
  3. Unsent - Alanis Morissette for those times you're feeling like it was better to love and lost then to never loved at all. Kinda weird how it lays out similar to relationships prior to meeting my wife
  4. Drumbone - Blue Man Group. Great 'chilling' song
  5. Precious Illusions - Alanis Morrisette Another one of hers. So sue me. I can listen to this one all the time, not sure why

Name three artists/bands you adore:

God this one is tough

  1. Alanis Morissette (Schocker)
  2. Pink Floyd
  3. They Might Be Giants

Who are you gonna pass this stick to (three persons and why)?

Well there are a few problems with this, is that Scott would be one, Brian another and then I have no idea who to do for the third because if I did it with my wife she would give me lots of crap because I always get annoyed with the 'survey' emails that float around.
