most played ever? recently listened to? or what

[Jesusetc84]

most played ever? recently listened to? or what

 

 

Hahah uhh most played recently.

 

My iPod was recently WIPED CLEAN so all of my current most played tracks are just that...Current.

 

 

I guess a recent list.

[tongue-tied]

i'll give you both. i haven't looked at my iTunes for playcounts in a long long time, and i find the results hilarious, here is the MOST PLAYED EVER with some commentary:

 

1) Float On - Modest Mouse - GNFPWLBN

 

maybe why i've been burnt out on MM for awhile now, much more proof later

 

2) Kicking Television - Wilco - A Ghost Is Born EP

 

#1 Wilco song! I like it a lot, but something seems off. It makes me feel a little better to know I've listened to a full 2 minutes more of Spiders than KT, though not nearly as many times.

 

3) Easy - The Beta Band - Heroes to Zeroes

4) Panthers - Jeff Tweedy - bootleg

5) Don't Pass Me By - The Beatles - The Beatles

6) Outside - The Beta Band - Heroes to Zeroes

 

begin the repeats of songs from albums i was big on in high school

 

7) Rousseau - Pinback - This Is A Pinback CD

8) Good Times - Jim O'Rourke - Insignificance

9) Cars Can't Escape - Wilco - YHF Demos

10) Atom Tan - The Clash - Combat Rock

11) Loro - Pinback - This Is A Pinback CD

 

here's another, still a lovely song

 

12) The Late Greats - Wilco - A Ghost Is Born EP

 

While I'll defend the bursting energy of AGIB from those blind to its powers, the EP version did kick this one up a notch. Note this is the first Wilco album song. I should explain that while I've kept this compy for awhile, i re-ripped my favorite albums at a higher bitrate, which obviously excludes a lot of material from this list.

 

13) Be My Head

 

I remember this song binge well, there's something beautiful about asking someone to be your head, i used to start my day with this one

 

14) Blame it on the Tetons - Modest Mouse -GNFPWLBN

 

I sure liked this album when it came out, you'll see.

 

15) Strangers - The Kinks - Lola vs Powerman and the moneygoround

 

No miscalculations here, I love this song - even before Tweedy covered it! I admit I was a little proud when I saw it on the new Golden Smog, it was the first time in awhile that I thoroughly enjoyed something that Tweedy hadn't wrote, covered, or talked about before I got to it. (Though his Kinks fandom did help mine)

 

16) Instant Karma! - John Lennon - Lennon Legend Collection

17) Dance Hall - MM - GNFPWLBN

 

see?

 

18) Black Cadillacs - MM - GNFPWLBN

 

see??

 

19) Fa Fa - Guster - Lost and Gone Forever

 

wowee, haven't listened to them in awhile, another high school standard though. still a damn catchy album.

 

20) The World at Large - MM - GNFPWLBN

 

This would have been a very different list had I re-ripped this one.

 

21) A Magazine Called Sunset - Wilco - YHF Demos

22) Spanish Bombs - The Clash - London Calling

23) The View - MM- GNFPWLBN

24) Satin In a Coffin - MM - GNFPWLBN

25) Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots, Pt. 2 - The Flaming Lips - Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots

 

Yeah, that's right, the most played Yoshimi track is the screaming one. The only one to climb back to the top after receiving a better bit-rate.

 

This is much more than anyone needs to know, but I got nothing but time tonight

[tongue-tied]

and to keep it short my most played as of late is anything off of:

 

Deerhoof - Friend Opportunity

The Kinks - Muswell Hillbillies

Super Furry Animals - Love Kraft

The Raconteurs - Broken Boy Soldiers

Jim O'Rourke - Insignificance, Bad Timing, and others

[jahilia]

# 1 Poison Cup - M. Ward

19 others are by M. Ward, off various albums - I've been on a huge kick lately

7. Neighborhood #1 - Arcade Fire

13. Can't Hardly Wait - Replacements

14. Wolves - Josh Ritter

19. How It Ends - Devotchka

22. 20th Century Man - Kinks
