Shuffle your iPod

Post by jmq »

Liamsaunt last suggested this in May 2009. Way overdue for another round, no?

Even if you posted to the last shuffle thread, post again, because your songs will be (should be) different this time!

Rule 1: shuffle your ipod or mp3 player, and post the first five songs that come up. NO CHEATING! No skipping over the potentially embarrassing songs you have on there. :lol:

Rule 2: Purchase all of the awesome new songs you find out about through the forum link at the top of the page!

I'm first...there's only about five songs I don't want people to know about, so the odds are good that I am safe...

(shuffle)

1. Greyhound: I Am What I Am
2. Oh dear....Abba: Dancing Queen :oops:
3. The Shins: Phantom Limb (I got that one from another fourm music thread!)
4. Peter Gabriel: Down to Earth
5. Eva Cassidy: Fields of Gold

Next?
Here goes...
1. Greg Kihn - Breakup Song
2. Stephen Kellogg & The Sixers - Anthem of Our Discovery
3. Squeeze - Up the Junction
4. Amos Lee - Windows Are Rolled Down
5. Television - Days

Next?

Hard Candy - Madonna
Junkie Doll - Mark Knopfler
Wanderlust - Mark Knopfler

Hmmm... my shuffle doesn't seem to work too well, since it gave me two songs from the same album, back to back.

We saw Fourplay at the Keswick Theater back in '04 or so. Good one!

The sixth song seemed to be appropriate for STJ too...

Come Rain or Come Shine - Natalie Cole

Becky, it's interesting that you have Eva Cassidy on your
iPod, as she's not generally very well known in the states. A long time ago a musician friend of mine named Roger Henderson wrote a song that Eva recorded called
" Not a Penny To My Name". Eva never got real big before she died. Anyway, I saw Roger a couple of years ago and he said that he was just about broke when all of a sudden these pretty decent royalty checks started coming in from that song.After all of those years it seems Eva's old albums got pretty big in Europe, and Roger was the lucky one.

I don't have any Frank on CD or mp3 - I think I am violating some kind of local code on that, so please don't tell any Jersey guys whose last name ends with a vowel.

JT I really like Eva Cassidy. I don't remember how I found out about her, but I have all her CDs, which means it was a long time ago. I have not bought any actual CDs since I got my first ipod in 2004.

You didn't shuffle your ipod!
