Kottke posted his top 5 most played songs from his iTunes library, and it got me curious what mine are. Not what I expected at all:
Craig Armstrong - Childhood / 28 plays
Craig Armstrong - Weather Storm / 27 plays
Peter Gabriel - Mercy Street (William Orbit Rmx) / 26 plays
Weekend Players - Pursuit of Happiness / 26 plays
Cocteau Twins - The Thinner the Air (Massive Attack Rmx) / 25 plays
Given that I now have nearly 1/4 of a Terabyte of music on my various hard drives, it doesn't surprise me that my most played tunes would only have 25+ plays. What does surprise me is that my entire Top 25 list is downtempo. The only explanation I have for this, I guess, is that it is what I spent the last 4+ years listening to while I studied. But still... I would have thought either Sasha's Airdrawndagger or Involver albums or one of my own mixes would have made the Top 25. Weird.
