Put your Ipod Itunes or phone on shuffle

[Rickles 0]

I have loved the music video thread the RP started. I want to take it a step further. I think a great way to get to know someone's music tastes is just to have them put their Iphone, Ipod, or ITunes on shuffle and list the first 5 or ten songs that show up. So let's hear yours. Do a favorite play list, or just your whole library and put it on shuffle. List the artist, title, and album of the first 5 songs that pop up. Be honest, don't cheat just because a song that pops up isn't a favorite. Give us a real idea of what will pop up. I will start.

 

This is from a playlist I keep on my phone called best of the best. It's a big playlist with more than a hundred songs from lots of different genres. Here are the first ten songs that pop up.

 

1. Artist: Pac Div (a California based hip hop group), Song: Broccoli, Album: Don't Mention It

 

2. Gungor (A really creative contemporary Christian musician), Song: Late Have I Loved You, Album: Beautiful Things

 

3. Radiohead, Fake Plastic Trees from The Bends

 

4. Blackalicious, The Craft from The Craft

 

5. N*E*R*D (Love me some Pharrell), Bobby James from In Search Of

 

6. Mob Deep, Quiet Storm from Murda Music

 

7. The White Stripes, Seven Nation Army from Elephant

 

8. Marvin Gaye, Ain't Nothing Like the Real Thing from Anthology Disc 1

 

9. A Tribe Called Quest, Buggin' Out from The Low End Theory

 

10. Nirvana, Lake of Fire from MTV Unplugged

 

I'm looking forward to hearing from people!

Your music taste is very similar to mine

[jaxbeachpackerfan 770]

I've got a lot of weird stuff in my library.  It's not necessarily what I listen to most.  I'm not an earbud music in my ears kind of guy.  I listen in the car (sirius xm channels) and music channels on the TV/Home Theater.  So my playlist is more the unique things I like from time to time.  So, the 10 songs I just came up with on Shuffle are:

 

Rock around the Clock --Bill Haley and Comets

No Mercy for Me--The Zawinul

Where's My Lucky Star--My Scarlet Life from their awesome Buzzbomb Album

Suspicious Minds--Elvis Presley

Be Here to Love me--Norah Jones

High How the Moon--Ray Brown Jr, with Ella Fitzgerald

She Takes More than She Gives--Walter Trout

Everyday People--Sly & the Family Stone

Working Man Blues--Merle Haggard

Three Cigarettes in an Ashtray--Patsy Cline

Just Like a Butterfly that's Caught in the Rain--Diana Krall

Let it Grow--Eric Clapton

Coconut Telegraph--Jimmy Buffet

 

Oops--13, can't count

Theoo,

We do both have a penchant for the Hip Hop. You seem to dig the southern stuff a little more than me. I have mainly older east coast stuff. I think that is a product of where we grew up. You definitely can't go wrong with Kanye and Jay Z. I think the last full album I bought with my own money was Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy. I also am psyched to see Pusha T on there. I love Clipse and I was born, and my Dad still lives, pretty close to where Clipse and Pharrell  are from. I was psyched to see them make it big.  

 

Jaxbeachpackerfan,

You have good taste. Lots of super good song writers there. The country you have listed is exactly the kind of country I like to listen to.

Agreed, different time. I tend to like more lyrical content than just loud bass and such. I think thats why i stick to the east coast and more freestyle rappers than just the guys who can put out a hit. 

 

Great idea for this thread too, im glad none of my embarrassing songs came up during the shuffle lol

[whiskey golf 61]

The Catalyst- Linkin Park

Bark at the Moon- Ozzy Osbourne

Out of My Way- Seether

Thunderstruck- AC/DC

Knights of Cydonia- Muse

The Last Fight- Velvet Revolver

American Woman- The Guess Who

Stairway to Heaven- Led Zeppelin

Let Me Love You- Ne-Yo

Come As You Are- Nirvana

 

All my songs are rock and some metal and some alternative type rock, not a fan of pop, rap, or anything related. But as shown, there are a couple songs that are exceptions. I don't know what Ne-Yo is doing on my Rock/Metal playlist though.

This is fun. keep up the good work boys.

 

That's a lot of classic rock for such a young guy whiskey.

 

Barbajo: That was a lot of good stuff.

 

Dru: good mix of obscure stuff and some good classics. Not to mention a very eclectic mix.

My music is way out there in the eyes of most people my age. I take pride in listening to what I think is good music compared to some of the trash that is out there. I'm not saying everything modern is bad but it's just not for me.

The funny thing about that list, is that it is far less eclectic than I expected knowing what else is available to the playlist.  I don't like repetition so I use the not played criteria to make it so that for the most part I only hear a song in the playlist about once every 7-10 days.
