Reality Check: Greatest Hits

November 8, 2006

The Great i-Pod Experiment

Filed under: Pop Culture — Cheryl @ 12:37 pm

This little game came from Nanette. What are the first ten songs your i-Pod plays in shuffle mode?

For me the game was easy because at the moment I only have an i-Pod shuffle. I hope to rectify that come Christmas. But I digress. Here is what my i-Pod produced when I played yesterday morning…

1. Walk On by U2
2. Naked Eye by Lucsious Jackson
3. Ants Marching by Dave Matthews Band
4. Blister in the Sun by Violent Femmes
5. Never Know by Jack Johnson
6. Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol
7. Open Your Eyes by Snow Patrol
8. My Stupid Mouth by John Mayer
9. How to Be Dead by Snow Patrol
10. Harder to Breathe by Maroon 5

What are your 10? Tell me in the comments…

  9. Your list is great! I especially love John Mayer and Maroon 5, as I’m sure you would have guessed. :)

    If I remembered my iPod today, I’d give you today’s list of random 10, but alas…

    Comment by Nanette — November 8, 2006 @ 6:32 pm

  10. My i-Pod is all 80’s and a few current hits. Total Top 40. I was on the bus the other day and a guy tapped me on the shoulder and asked, “Are you listening to Footloose?”

    Sadly, I was. Bugt it’s better than “Danger Zone.”

    Cheryl, I’m going to take a stab in the dark here. You have 803 songs on your iPod? Am I close? I do love me some Snow Patrol.

  17. Mine is dead right now, or it might have given me the same list, with a few adds of odd PNW bands like Goodness and The Rockfords. Other than that, you have fantastic taste in music, I might add. :)
