It's backward, but I just went with how everyone else was listing it.

That's how the titles come up on iTunes for me -- title first, then artist.

Happy to move to Vespers if y'all want me to. It's here in GenDisc because that's where DotD started it.

Thong Song - Kyuss
You Wish - Unida

There seems to be a message there, Syl.

How I wish I had every song here as a playlist!! And yes, I love juxtaposing songs. Makes them fresh. I don't get to buy music often.

And feel free to move to Vespers... I thought of it more as a social game than a music discussion which is why I put it in GenD.

That's what I thought, too. If there's a groundswell, I'll move it.

Here's my second set. I went back and checked *all* the music, which includes the Christmas stuff...

1. Pilgrimage to Santiago: Txalaparta -- the Chieftains
2. Fire at Midnight -- Jethro Tull
3. 30,000 Pounds of Bananas -- Harry Chapin
4. Renegade -- Styx
5. Setting Sail/Muineira de Frexido -- the Chieftains
6. Symphony No. 3 in F maj, Op. 90, Movement III (Hadyn, I think) - Marin Alsop (don't remember which orchestra, tho)
7. A Christmas Song -- Jethro Tull
8. It Doesn't Have to Be That Way -- Jim Croce
9. Merry Christmas Darling -- Carpenters
10. Blow My Chanter -- beolach
11. Spanish Sun -- Young & Rollins
12. Bolton St/The Millstream/Loophead Lighthouse -- Lunasa
13. Maneo -- the Chieftains
14. Follow Me -- John Denver
15. All You Need Is Love -- the Beatles

To explain: Almost everything I've got in iTunes is from albums that I dubbed to CDs. Most are albums that I copied to keep in the car; others are rescued from the last of my cassette tapes (which included a Christmas music mixtape from the early '80s). The only things I've actually purchased were Toto IV and some classical tracks from Amazon.

It might be Brahms… (did a google check on the number and F major. Most Haydn symphonies that are played are usually No. 70+)

Sorus wrote:The State of Massachusetts - Dropkick Murphys

I have a friend who loves the Dropkick Murphys. Every year he sends an event invite for when they are playing in Milwaukee.

I used all the music in my library - 1042 songs - but oddly only a small subset of genres turned up on my first 15 shuffle, some of which I don't listen to regularly:

Joyful Sign by Girlyman
Ein Li Devar, written by Liat Yitzchaki sung by Har'el Moyal
Mauvais Song - Khaled - Arabic Groove album
Leiley - Dania - Arabic Groove album
wrong son - Girlyman

See You Space Cowboys - Seatbelts - Cowboy Bebop
Rain - Seatbelts - Cowboy Bebop
At Sheli Ani Shelach sung by Eyal Golan
The People's Song - Les Miserables
Cat Blues - Seatbelts - Cowboy Bebop

She Loves You - The Beatles
Kama Ahava Yesh Be'Enayich by Mayan Katz, sung by Gameboys
Mar Narkis by Naomi Shemer
Bad Dog No Biscuit - Seatbelts - Cowboy Bebop
Milford Lake - John Cameron Mitchell/Stephen Trask

Might have been -- and yeah, Haydn's London symphonies seem to get the most attention. I honestly don't remember. It was a freebie track from Amazon from some knockoff "greatest classical hits" album.

Sometimes a shufflizer will go on a jag, and start playing a certain artist very frequently for a while. One of tech life's little weirdities. I just tell myself that the player has a "thing" for whoever-it-is today.

Handel - Organo ad libitum Adagio

Al Stewart - A League of Notions

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers - Even the Losers

Vangelis - Echoes

Moody Blues - Eyes of a Child

Sky - Dance of the Little Fairies

Vangelis - West Across the Ocean Sea

Moody Blues - I Never Thought I Ever Live to be a Million

Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers - You Tell Me

Moody Blues - Higher and Higher

Moody Blues - Hole in the World

Al Stewart - The Ear of the Night

Chris de Burgh - The Moonfleet Finale

Sky - Chiropodie No. 1

(Not sure if this implies that you do as well, but I have found that I greatly enjoy mixing the LOTR soundtrack in with my other music on random-play. Sometimes the juxtopositions can be quite entertaining.)

I recalled your post, WF, as i just heard "Into the West" followed immediately by "One Week" by the Barenaked Ladies.

Here's my "next" 15:

i - Lee Campbell (acoustic guitar instrumental)
