What's on your iPod?

Ooooh, how fun! It's a shame no one will read this...

Jonny Lang - Darker Side
This is a nice, slow, bluesy song from his debut album. I don't really listen to it very often though.

Kenny Wayne Shepherd - King's Highway
I guess my ipod has the white boy blues today...This one is a bluesy-rock sort of thing in the style of Stevie Ray Vaughan.

Motorhead - Ace of Spades
This one is a classic metal song. Good stuff

Bo Diddley - Diddley Daddy
No offense to Elvis, but Bo Diddley invented rock and roll. A nice groovy little song.

The Beatles - Polythene Pam
I love everything on Abbey Road, and this one is no exception.
 
Let's see. I guess I'll do 5 more...

Kiss - Love Gun
Gotta love it...How they could make a sexual song sound romantic

Metallica - The Struggle Within
Not really my favorite from the black album...But oh well.

The Doors - Indian Summer
Nice, chill stony type song.

Faith No More - Edge of the World
This song has a jazzy, loungy sort of feeling to it. Quite a bit different from the rest of the album.

The Beatles - Get Back
Gotta love that late Beatles bluesy type stuff.
 
My first 5 shuffled songs:

Shut Your Eyes - Snow Patrol [Eyes Open]
X-ecutioner Style - Linkin Park [Reanimation]
That Old Pair of Jeans - Fatboy Slim [The Greatest Hits - Why Try Harder]
Bloof for Wild Blood - Razorlight [Slipway Fires]
Jimmy Kane - Muse [B-Sides & Rarities] (not sure if this is the actual album name)

Out of interest who uses the Ratings for their favourites, and who has a playlist. Personally I start all songs as 3 stars and my favourites go to 5 and those to delete go to 0. If I just want a break from it I put it at 1. I then have 2 playlists in iTunes I sync - 3 stars and 5 stars.
 
The Modern Age- The Strokes
great song, i an't think of a song i don't like by the strokes

If You Were There, Beware- Arctic Monkeys
my favourite song by the arctics at the moment

Song 2- Blur
Cliched, but i love it. still a brilliant song

Alright- Supergrass
My favourite song of theirs for a while now

Common People- Pulp
Haha love this song. the film clips ace

well there's 5
good shuffle for me i reckon :D
 
here's my five from nowhere:

"..." Bobby Bare Jr.

Three seconds of silence. Not a song, but it is what popped up. Kind of a bleak way to start.

"A Raga Called Pat IV" John Fahey

Hmm, from nothing to in your face pretentiousness. My ipod is really out to mark me as a fink.

"Room Full Of Roses" Dean Martin

Lookee, lookee, the real me: a sentimentalist.

"W.O.M.A.N." Etta James

Must be the Beyonce hater in me making a declaration.

"They Can't Take That Away From Me" Wayne Newton

End with a big finish, my mama always said. I'm pretty sure she meant with Mr.Las Vegas.

:confused:
 
Angry Young Man - Michael Cavanaugh - Movin Out

--This is one of Billy Joels' songs in Movin Out. It is awesome.

Living Life - Ben Kweller - On My Way

--A friend introduced me to Ben Kweller. I quite like his stuff.

Wade in the Water - from Alvin Ailey's Revelations

--Alvin Ailey IS amazing! If they come to town, you should check them out. Either way, check out the music!

In Between Days - Ben Folds - Speed Graphic

--A Cure cover. Not too shabby.

These Rhinestone Days - Billy Joel - My Lives 1

--A demo that eventually became I've Loved These Days. I think I prefer the demo actually...

Has Been - William Shatner - Has Been

--This song is hilarious.

Think - Aretha Franklin - The Blues Brothers

--I am quite an Aretha fan.

Really That Bad - The Pipettes - Your Kisses Are Wasted On Me

--If you are into idiotic (and I say that lovingly) dance music, you should check out The Pipettes

Bassoon Concerto in E minor, 3 - Allegro - Vivaldi

--Vivaldi's bassoon concertos are all amazing.

Sympathy for the Devil - Rolling Stones - Beggars Banquet

--Good song.

Material Things ft. Andre Nickatina - Smoov-E
This is a dope track. Has a nice beat and the whistle in it is makes it stick in your head.

Intro ft. Spice 1 - C-Bo
Just an intro from "Thug Lordz: Trilogy" album

All We Do ft. The Confident One - Khayree
This is a song from "The Blackalation" and reminds me I need to listen to this album again.

Stop Snitchin' - Yukmouth
This track takes me back a couple years. Yuk always goes hard!

It Ain't Over ft. Tanu - Too $hort
Comes from Too $horts newest album "Get off The Stage". $hort still has it IMO

First five ( in shuffle mode)

Father of a Honky Tonk Girl - The Austin Lounge Lizards

Dreamers Ball - Queen

Old and Fat and Drunk - The Austin Lounge Lizards

Princess (Morgan Z Remix) - Datarock

Bone Machine - Pixies
 
Dobermann - Dark Tranquillity
I like this song. It's got a nice groove to it, and it reminds me of their older music.

No One Knows - Queens of the Stone Age
I totally forgot I had this song! It's a prettyy decent song that's pretty catchy and reminds me of the summer.

I'm Sorry - Flyleaf
One of my least favorite songs on their album, but I do like the chorus.

Ryoujoku no Ame - Dir en grey
It's Dir en grey, so it's alternative japanese metal. Most of their songs sound the same to me, but that isn't always a bad thing. This song is pretty good.

Rosencrance - Born of Osiris
One of the only talented Deathcore bands, IMO. And this song is awesome, although the song changes rhythms and patterns every 5-12 seconds.
 
First five? Ok.

The Drunkk Machine - Thom Yorke, The Eraser
-I like everything Radiohead really... some of the Thom Yorke solo stuff is lacking but I still like it

The Canyon - Into the Wild original film score
-I really liked the movie, and since finding the score, I've been listening to it a lot. Most songs are very short but they're good.

Hurting and Shoving (She Should Have Let Me Sleep) - Glassjaw
-One of my favorite bands. Their newer stuff is much better in my opinion. Glassjaw always reminds me of home (Long Island)

Justice in a Bag - Disrespect
-Members of Civil Disobedience. Disrespect is pretty awesome. It's strange to think they have a 90's sound. Makes me feel old already

Harvest Breed - Nick Drake
-Not much to say, Pink Moon is my favorite Nick Drake record


That's weird, I have so much stuff and all the mellow stuff I listen to came up first. I listen to mostly hardcore, punk and metal. I actually had to skip songs by the same artist or on the same record. iTunes/iPod shuffle sucks so bad. I haven't been able to get a good, random shuffle in like 8 years.
 
Tragically Hip - Day for Night - Yawning or Snarling
Miles Davis - DooBop - Blow
Pink Floyd- The Division Bell - Marooned
Toni Braxton - Toni Braxton - Breath Again
The Offspring - Smash - Time to Relax (?)
 
On my little orange shuffle - only have Godspeed You Black Emperor's "F#A#infinity" album in its entirety.
 
pulp - do you remember the first time

one of my fave pulp tunes, haven't heard it for ages! thanks ipod shuffle :)

interpol - narc

muse - map of the problematic

sarah blasko - explain

love her, great great song. beautiful voice

death in vegas - girls

perfect way to end the selection. from the lost in translation soundtrack.
 
Okay, the first 5 shuffled on my 32GB iPod Touch;


Shiny Toy Guns - Don't Cry Out
Strangely, this song I stumbled across while catching up on The L Word on youtube. Someone had used it for a homemade music video. It still makes me ugly cry. Reminds me far too much of the one I let slip away.


Johnny Cash - God's Gonna Cut You Down
I am a huge fangirl of The Man in Black. This is the music my parents raised me on. I love the near mechanical beat, and of course Johnny's voice.


Smashing Pumpkins - 1979
One of my favorite songs when I was in high school. I remember to this day sneaking into my quiet place in my High School library and listening to this on my walkman (away from the prying eyes of the nuns).


Frank Zappa - Sy Borg
Heh, I love this album so much (Joe's Garage Acts 1-3). My uncle would babysit me while my mum and dad were at work, he and his friends (who were 17 at the time) would have me listen to Frank, watch Monty Python and read comics with them. I was such a tomboy then -.-


Danny Elfman - Violet Beauregarde
Ahhhh, the Charlie & the Chocolate Factory soundtrack. I love this so much, granted, not as much as the original Oompa Loompa songs, but these're great too.
 
Here Goes...

Gilt Gold Scabs - Dirty Projectors

Interesting work...

Waiting For the Aeroplane - John Psathas

Love this one. Very nice. Apparently he wrote it while waiting at an airport.

Knife - Grizzly Bear

Nice song but not one of my favorites off of Yellow House

Papalon - Squarepusher

Fantastic. jazzy. electronic. Awesome

Piano Concerto No.1 in F sharp minor, op.1 - II. Andante - Rachmaninov

Probably one of his weaker concertos but nice nontheless

Time for a change - Split enz

yip

Say hello to the angels - Interpol

Probably my favourite off the album. Amazing.

In the flowers - Animal Collective

Nice opener :cool:
