iPodage - stolen from Dr Chingasa
Dr Chingasa posted a list of 13 random songs on his iPod. Despite my not having used my iPod for the past two years, I thought this would be fun. Here goes.
- Chemical Beats - Chemical Brothers
- What I Got (reprise) - Sublime
- Ode to Billy Joe - John Butler
- Rebecca - Pat McGee Band
- Thick ‘n Thin - The Black Crows
- Broken Heart - Spiritualized (WTF? I have no idea what this is.)
- Great Things - Echobelly
- I’ve Still Got My Health - Bette Midler (I promise I didn’t know this was on there.)
- From Despair to Where - Manic Street Preachers
- Harry Bridges - Rancid
- I Know a Girl - soundtrack to Chicago
- Santa Claus is Coming to Town - Tony Bennett (again, WTF do I have on this thing??)
- Heroin - The Velvet Underground
There you go. Now, in light of my recent bitching about music, I am actually pleasantly surprised. I don’t know where some of this stuff came from (I have a plethora of purchased mix CDs so obviously from there with a handful of H’s stuff thrown in), but I seriously expected it to be more depressing than that. In fact, clearly, I need to put this thing on random more often.
In fact, I was expecting to finish up this post talking about what I think is going to be my new years resolution this coming year, which is to make a valiant effort to record ALL of my music and redo my iPod complete with carefully thought out playlists. (This is more complicated and time consuming than it sounds given that H and I intend to have a shared drive with all of our music and this involves moving music, some duplicated, some not, from our individual laptops and then getting iTunes to see another computer, and, well, you get the picture.) And while I still think that is a good idea, I will obviously have to give my iTunes a good looking at. There are more interesting things here than I think there is.
