I'm using last.fm because this is what it would look like on iTunes (which DIDN'T recover play counts after the crash:

 

1-11: Neutral Milk Hotel's In The Aeroplane Over The Sea

12: Wilco - It's Just That Simple

13-25: The Beatles: Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band

 

After the crash I made a vow to only listen to albums the whole way through...and you can tell. Why does Wilco appear in the middle? My iPod is retarded in that when I stop listening in the middle it doesn't like to turn off, so I resort to the that tune which is the only recording I have from late 2007 (it's a live one)...which is why it always gets played. I play It's Just That Simple, let it end, and then, for one reason or another, my iPod decides to let me turn it off.
