My Top 25 Most Played

I read this post on my friend Hotel Manager's blog and thought it might be fun (and mostly embarrassing). I also listed play counts, which should only add to the embarrassment.

1. Pull In Town from Napoleon Dynamite, 643,625 plays*
2. Closer by Nine Inch Nails, 130 plays
3. Pledge of Allegiance by Louis XIV, 120 plays
4. Coming Undone by Korn, 101 plays
5. Something To Be by Rob Thomas, 94 plays
6. Bossy by Kelis, 93 plays
7. Work It Out by Jurassic 5 and Dave Matthews Band, 91 plays
8. Romeo and Juliet by Dire Straits, 88 plays
9. Control by Puddle of Mudd, 86 plays
10. Never My Love by The Association, 75 plays
11. All My Life by Foo Fighters, 75 plays
12. Hard To Concentrate by Red Hot Chili Peppers, 73 plays
13. Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol, 73 plays
14. Collide by Howie Day, 65 plays
15. Whiskey In The Jar by Metallica, 65 plays
16. Baby, Now That I Found You by Alison Krauss, 62 plays
17. You Shook Me All Night Long by AC/DC, 57 plays
18. God Only Knows by The Beach Boys, 55 plays
19. Ain't Nothing Wrong With That by Robert Randolph and the Family Band, 52 plays
20. The Blower's Daughter by Damien Rice, 49 plays
21. Stronger by Billy Squier, 48 plays
22. Bop Gun (One Nation) by Ice Cube, 47 plays
23. Wonderwall by Oasis, 47 plays
24. Loving You by Paolo Nutini, 43 plays
25. Ah! Leah! by Donnie Iris, 42 plays

*This is a four-second sound byte from the movie "Napoleon Dynamite." I like to mute my speakers and set it to play when I leave the office for the weekend (when I leave the office for the weekend) just for fun (when I remember to have fun) (I also realize that if this is my definition of "fun" then I need to get out more) and to artificially raise my play count. Ty has informed me this is not right. There is a part of me that does it because I know he doesn't like it.

If anyone is still reading this blog, I think you should do it, too and post a link to your blog in the comments.

Ahem.
15. Underwater Secrets by Abigail Doyle 5 plays

20. The Glow Worm (Cha Cha Cha) by Jackie Davis 5 plays
21. Is She Really Going Out with Him? by Joe Jackson 5 plays
22-25 all are John Williams' Harry Potter movie soundtrack songs.

I blame the shuffle function for not playing Never There every other time I listen to Flossie.

[Trina]

I have no ipod.

I have no itunes.

The only songs I recognize out of yours or GAF's are the Harry Potter songs, and I recognized them all before the actual reference to Harry Potter.

I know what LUMOS means.

I'm feeling a little depressed over this, but I'll cheer right up once I find my "Anne Murray's Greatest Hits" cassette tape, pop it in my van's deck, and sing to "Danny's Song" all the way to the grocery store. Yeah baby!

[Tusk]

Is there any way to figure out the most plays using WMP?

[Jerilyn]

I have no idea, Tusk. Sorry!

[DanaLee]

I wasn't going to play because my songs make me realize my true goober status. Also, my play counts are low even though I have had my Ipod and therefore Itunes for about 18 months. I mostly use my Ipod and not Itunes so I imagine my Ipod list would vary signficantly. Also, I will admit I am slightly neurotic about Christmas music, and played it basically non stop last year starting mid October. So I cannot say I am surprised at how many of those tunes showed up in the top 25.
1. Girls Like Me: Mary Chapin Carpenter: 33

2. My Heaven: Mary Chapin Carpenter: 29

3. Crying:Roy Orbison and K.D. Lang: 29

[Sean]

My list is here.
My blog entry on how I'm totally not embarrassed by the songs on my list is here.

[Joyce]

I listed the soundtrack to my life a few weeks ago on my blog...I can't count and I have no iPod so here it is.

[Stephsterr]

I put mine up on my blog. Coming soon to a KF CD near you... ;)

[Meghan]

I can't count my most played songs because I don't have a nifty ipod thingy but I did do a top ten list on my blog a while back!

[Ty]

I've now posted my top 25. Hey, Jerilyn, it's been a while, eh? I was happy (if a little stressed) to see that you've still been working on artificially raising your play counts. I've got a great file for you if you want it, you can seriously make for a high play count with it.

[Ty]

and have I confessed that I've crossed over and artificially inflated my play counts? Not quite as much as to achieve a play count like yours, but I've fast forwarded to the ends of some songs to register them as played even if I've only listened to half the song! I'm a hypocrite.

[Kiari]

Um...Yeah. My ipod is still charging...but here are some songs I like, In no particular order

Fat Lip (Sum 41)
Kryptonite
iGeneration(MC Lars)
Home(Three days grace)
Because of You (NIckelback
Headstrong(Trapt)
Boulevard of Broken SOngs(Greenday vs. Oasis)
Crawling (LIncon Park)
Numb(Lincon Park)
In The end (Lincon Park)
Breaking the habit( Lincon Park)

and the ending Naruto Shippuden song....I dunno what its called or who its by, but if you do, tell me plz!
