What songs did you listen to last year? Sandy over at Slowcoustic took my year end list quite seriously and listed his top listened to songs of 2009. I was curious, I just looked up albums and did a calculation in my head of what I listened to and put them in order when I made my year end list. Sandy actually got technical and got down to individual songs! So here’s my version of Sandy’s version of my …. oh you know what I mean, right?

P.S. I really fucking hate itunes, and I never, ever, link this blog up to the itunes store directly because I hate the way it automatically opens the program on your computer. It’s such a behemoth of a monster of a piece of software and if you’re on anything but the most modern and cutting edge piece of machinery it fouls up your whole day just opening the piece of shit crap software. So… with great reluctance I use it to do this post. And truth be told, until I got an iphone I used other programs to organize and listen to my music (actually until apple put out the 3gs or whatever it was that MediaMonkey hasn’t caught up to yet)… so, that’s my rant on itunes and my explanation on why I never link to it. If you use it you know perfectly well how to find music on it. And if not, then good for you! xo

oh please, you knew were a sap from the beginning :p
and wow, jadiid – they moved up the charts pretty quickly
I KNOW, I’m surprised as you at Jadiid… but fuckme, that album is really good.
sap, pfft!
+1 for your well justified hatred of the steaming pile of crap that is the arse of a program iTunes.
Who? What? I don’t know any of those tracks! Maybe you could make a playlist on last.fm (if they have any of them available – they only had 4 of my top 20.)
I’m guessing you’re using iTunes on a Windows PC? They never quite made it work properly. Still, I think there are some settings either in iTunes or Windows to prevent it opening automatically when you don’t want it to.
Playlist, hmmm…. yes, I’ll do it tonight. Good idea!
And is there really a way to disable the blasted thing? Well… let me know. It’s a monster, untamed! xo
Ok, here ya go
Playlisted, with as much info as I can give ya!
Have you ever heard of Rhapsody? I use this with my little 4gb Philips Gogear Vibe. It’s like ituns but much better (in my opinion). I never cared for itunes, tho I’ve been tempted to use it just for the free Steve Dahl podcasts lol. You could also just look at the start up options on itunes (and your computer) and change them.
