All right. I will do this shit. It will make up for not getting around to doing that letter thing. I will even abstain from cheating and I will listen to all the songs.
1. Turn on your favorite media player and turn your shuffle feature on.
2. Hit "play" and keep track of the next 10 songs that come up. (If you have iTunes, you can make a smart playlist that will automatically list your most recently played selections.)
3. Post your 10 shuffled songs, along with these instructions. You are not allowed to lie, omit tracks or otherwise try to make your musical taste seem hipper than it actually is.
-----------------
1. Marty McParty and his Filthy Reds - "Jojoj Johnson's Theme". This is a good song that my brother wrote. "Washed up on a street corner / Eating raw Velveeta, drinking mustard juice." But the best part is the whistling solo.
2. [DARYL] - "(Instrumental)". Meh. The first track on The Technology. It has violins and beeping sounds and is 1:21 long. Now it is almost over and I want to listen to the next song on this album instead of whatever iTunes gives me next.
3. Of Montreal - "My darling, I've forgotten". Wow, this song is really depressing. Time to get a gala apple out of the fridge.
4. Lionel Richie - "Jesus is Love". Aw shit. I've never actually listened to this song before. It's on some compilation of his that I ripped from my mom. iTunes, you suck. Actually, this song is better than I would have expected. I like Lionel Richie. Next time, give me "You Are" or "My Love" though. 3 minutes down, 3 to go. I will probably not ever listen to this song on purpose. This is a pretty good apple. All right. This song is starting to get tiresome around the 5 minute mark.
5. XTC - "This is Pop". Live version from the Transistor Blast box set. I have said that if I ever stumbled upon a time machine, the first thing I'd do would be to go back to the late Cretaceous and capture a struthiomimus and bring it to an XTC show in 1979. If you have a better idea, let me know.
6. XTC - "New Town Animal in a Furnished Cage". From that same show. iTunes, you know what I like.
7. Crystal Waters - "100% Pure Love". Oh god. Why is this on here. iTunes, you don't know shit about dick. The sad thing is that I had this song stuck in my head the other day. On a serious note, though, if you haven't heard "Come on Down" by Crystal Waters, check it out. STG. Is Crystal Waters this chick or the name of the group? "In me you will find a ho-o-o-o-omo." This song has no business being over 3 minutes long. Can you put apple cores down the garbage disposal? I guess I'll just put it in the trash since Meghan just broke hers. Oh god. The last 40 seconds of this song are hilariously bad.
8. The Smashing Pumpkins - "Glass / Alternate Version". I was wondering when they would come up. :/ What's up next, iTunes? Radiohead? I still put on the Smashing Pumpkins every once and a while, and sometimes I'm pleasantly surprised. I used to love the fuck out of them in high school. This song is boring though. Oh hey, there was a pause and then they just started tearing shit up again. I'm cool with that.
9. Legendary Crystal Chandelier - "Million Miserable People". These guys are not bad, but I have always hated this song. It's just dumb. When it came on, I thought it was REM or some shit. I don't think I have any REM on here though. To be clear, it's not shitty because it sounds like REM. It's because Peter Schmidt sounds like a dumb asshole. Yeah, this song just keeps getting worse and worse. And worse. All right, the lounge outro with sexy Portuguese or whatever is pretty good.
10. Ween - "She's Your Baby". All right, I don't think I've listened to this song either. I downloaded this album one night and forgot about it. This song is pretty boring. Certainly no "Mister, would you please help my pony?" Fuck it. I'm going to listen to that one instead. YEAAAHHHHHHH.
