Because my blogging hasn't been vapid enough today, an iTunes meme

Open up iTunes, if you have it (if not, improvise), and answer the following questions:

How many total songs?

3207 songs, 41.2 days (I think the timing is wrong), 14.97 gigs


Sort by song title - first and last

Abandoned Masquerade - Diana Krall
99 Luftballons - Nena


Sort by time - shortest and longest

Shortest: Silence by Klaatu (really just the sound of a mouse getting caught in a mousetrap): 4 seconds

Longest: Glenn Gould's 1981 Goldberg Variations: 51:19.


Sort by Album - first and last

First: Abba Gold
Last: 1 (Beatles)
(followed by a bunch of tracks for which no album is listed)


Sort by Artist - first and last

First: Aafje Heynis
Last: 69 Charger


Top five played songs:

You Know I'm No Good - Amy Winehouse feat. Ghostface Killah
I'll Feel Amazing By Tomorrow - Lenlow
Mercedes Beck - Lenlow
Ugly - Bon Jovi
Freakshow - Ani DiFranco

(I don't think this thing counts times played on the ipod, only on itunes)


Find the following words. How many songs show up?

Sex: 39 (30 of which are due to the presence of Eddie Izzard's Sexie album, 2 of which are due to the presence of The Sex Pistols. Sorry to disappoint you if you were looking for music about sex, but then all music is really about sex)
Death: 4
Love: 158
You: 327
Home: 18
Boy: 46
Girl: 63

First five songs that come up on Party Shuffle

Just A Girl - No Doubt
