Your Most Played Songs on iTunes

[SickTangerine]

Hey all

I know not everyone has iTunes, but if you do, post your top 25 played songs or something, it's just nice to see what people have listened to a lot.

My own:

Black Dog - 107 plays

The Lemon Song - 93

Gallows Pole - 81

What is and What Should Never Be - 79

Whole Lotta Love - 79

Rock and Roll - 77

When the Levee Breaks - 77

Achilles Last Stand - 74

Misty Mountain Hop - 73

Tangerine - 72

Dazed and Confused - 71

Communcation Breakdown - 71

Heartbreaker - 71

The Battle of Evermore - 68

In My Time of Dying - 68

White Room (by Cream) - 66 (One of the few non zep songs in my top 25 played )

How Many More Times - 60

Good Times Bad Times - 58

The Ocean - 57

The Rover - 57

Death on Two Legs (Queen) - 56

Fat Bottomed Girls (Queen) - 55

Living Loving Maid - 53

With a Little Help From My Friends (Beatles) - 52

Hey Joe (Hendrix) - 52

Phew! That was a lot of typing, probably could have just print screened it, but ah well.

Please note that all the songs I have on my iTuneshave probably been listened to (especially the zep ones)countless times on my various MP3 players or iPods across time.

There's a lot of non Zep that's nearing into that list though!

Top 5

All Along the Watchtower JH- 40

Highway Star DP- 37

Tuesday's Gone LS-36

Hey Joe- JH - 35

Sunday Bloody Sunday U2-35

I've never really checked this out before. It is ironic that Jimmy Hedrix's version is no. 1. Back in the day we used to battle with the other patrons in our local watering hole to maintain Along Along the Watchtower as the top selected jukebox song. It cost use quite a few 2 bits.

[Quix]

Achilles Last Stand - 33

The Rover - 28

Kashmir - 28

Nightrain (GN'R) - 25

Trampled Under Foot - 24

Carouselambra - 21

In the Evening - 20

I don't use iTunes, so the 'play count' specifications might be different.

Nothing from Nothing - Billy Preston

I don't have an iPod.

[Virginia]

Please don't laugh; all 5 of us share an account and most of these numbers come from my daughters (even my running playlist!)

My running playlist:

#1 Tonight I Wanna Cry/Keith Urban: 41

#2 Love Song/Sara Bareilles: 37

#3 Wake Up Call/Maroon 5: 36

My first Zeppelin song comes in at #13, after several by the Clash and Peter Frampton (Trampled Underfoot: 24)

The entire music library in our home is even worse:

#1 Because of You/Kelly Clarkson: 166

#2 Don't Cha/The Pussycat Dolls: 154

#3 Roses/Outkast: 147

(Just had to boost Dead Leaves and the Dirty Ground after seeing it only had 1 play).

2. Alison Krauss- Down to the River and Pray& When You Say Nothing at All
3. Dave Brubeck- Take Five
4. Miles Davis- So What
5. Higher Ground- Stevie Wonder
6. Sam&Dave- I Thank You

23. Georgia on My Mind- Ray Charles and Count Basie
24. Live in Boston- Chris Botti
25. Love and Happiness- Al Green

*The blessings of maturity provide me (with no shame) in revealing that it's very likely that through out the year you can catch me playing " O Holy Night" by Charlotte Church, Celiene Dion, or Martina Mc Bride*

It's hard for me to understand these playlists. I embrace new music and old and listen to cd's.

I might play a new cd more than once soon after I get it, but usually, I put it in my collection and it goes in a rotation with about 1500 other cd's so it takes awhile before I might here it again. My playlist wouldn't have a song more than 2, at most 3, times on it in a month's period. I'd have to have a playlist covering 10 years or more to have any one song show up 25 times or so like so many here have listed.

I just have too much music to listen to one cd, or one song that many times in a short time period.

I just have too much music to listen to one cd, or one song that many times in a short time period.

With such a large collection it's ofc a lot easier to not end up hearing the same songs that many times in a month for an example. It also depends on how you approach new albums that you buy. I usually end up listening to new albums I buy quite a few times in a short timeframe. Usually when I'm absorbing a new album or two I hardly listen to anything else. For instance when I bought High Violet by The National I'd often listen to it 2-3 times a day for the first 2 weeks or so. Lately I've been listening to Kid A by Radiohead about once a day. The same happens with individual songs. There's a couple of songs by Sufjan Stevens that I've listened to atleast 2 times a day lately (usually once with my iPod sometime during the school day and then I listen to the full album later at home).

Somehow I just don't really get sick of the songs or albums. About 6 months ago I used to often get bored of a certain album after a while because I bought new music so infrequently. I've been buying a lot more music lately which ofc gives me a greater variety of songs to listen to. I do revisit albums from time to time but I just haven't felt like doing that in the last couple of months. Led Zeppelin for an example is at the moment something that I just can't see myself listening to.
