iTunes sparks a long, winding trip down memory lane
Jeeze, I didn’t realize just how much money I’ve spent in iTunes (and on CDs) over the years until I decided to make a “smart playlist” and put every alternative, rock, punk, pop, etc genre I have into it. The thing came out with 3348 songs, and a playing time of 9.3 days.
So, what did I do about it? I put the whole thing on shuffle, and hit play. Its like a radio station with music from the past three decades, a mix of heavy metal, and slower stuff, explicit stuff that couldn’t be played on the radio, and a handful of those old “guilty pleasure” songs you’d never admit you listened to in a million years.
And what else am I doing about it? Using iTunes printing feature to post the whole song list in PDF format right here for the world to see. Yeah, I know, some of the songs on there are inviting ridicule, so sue me, it was a different time when I bought those.
I think it’s pretty fitting that the first song on the list after I hit the shuffle button was the most famous phone number in the world since I haven’t heard that song…
