Something Shiny

There’s a new joke email circulating with various humorous observations. As with anything that gets forwarded around, it’s hit or miss. But one of the observations struck me as particularly true as I was listening to my Zune on random:

I like all of the music in my iTunes, except when it’s on shuffle, then I like about one in every fifteen songs in my iTunes.

So, here’s what happens when I leave it play on random for 10 songs, no skipping, songs in gray weren’t available in Grooveshark and therefore not included in the playlist below. In my defense, I have the SXSW sampler tracks loaded so I take no responsibility for some of the tracks (e.g. Colin Gilmore).

1. Faith No More – Crack Hitler
2. The Mood Swings – Generation Y
3. PowerSolo – Pirates of Oblivion
4. Traveling Wilburys – Not Alone Anymore
5. Colin Gilmore – Running Circles in the Yard
6. Duran Duran – The Reflex
7. Pretty Girls Make Graves – Speakers Push the Air
8. Black Box Recorder – The Facts of Life
9. The Doors – Break on Through (To the Other Side) (Live)
10. The Cardigans – Never Recover
