Every now and then, I like to look on what songs have made it onto my Top 25 Most Played list, on my iTunes. Have you ever done this? I’m assuming anyone who uses iTunes has this list automatically generated.
I realize as I look at this list, my daughter had a huge hand in the first few songs, because they were on a mix she used to listen to every night before she went to sleep. The rest of the songs make total sense for me: Another Lonely Day, by Ben Harper; Four Seasons in One Day, by Crowded House; and Here Comes the Flood, by Peter Gabriel. Classic heavy rotation tunes.
But what I’m really confused about is how number 13 got that high. Don’t get me wrong, I once had something similar to this on my bedroom wall when I was 11 years old and I knew every single word to The 12th of Never, and I’m not even Mormon. But really, who’s playing Puppy Love 86 times in my office? Is there something Dan’s not telling me?
So, what’s number one on your Top 25 Most Played? (And while you’re at it, your number 13, too!)
And yes, if you say Puppy Love I will be sufficiently freaked out.
JenniB says
Hey Cathy –
My number one currently is “Never Loved you More” by Nichole Nordeman. My number 13 is “Baby I’m a Star” by Prince. ๐
Happy Day!

I’m new to the Ipod world. I got mine for Christmas, and have been obsessed with it ever since. I’m in L O V E. ๐
My #1 tune is ‘Better Way’ by Ben Harper.Such an amazing song!
And no ‘Puppy Love’ (LOL!) for me.. my # 13 is ‘Show some Emotion’ by the great Joan Armatrading. ๐
Michele says
My number one is “Hurts so good” by John Mellencamp, and number 13 is “Lonely ‘Ol Night” by the same artist….I think my husband has something to do with that. (We share the same Ipod library). Thanks for all your posts!
Jennier says
This is how lame and sad I am…I’ve never even noticed there is a top 25 most played songs list on my iPod. So when I read your post I went and checked it out. I was really impressed with this list! I have great taste in music. The number one song is Don’t Feel Like Dancin’ by the Scissor Sisters. I love this song and it’s impossible not to dance when you hear it.
This was very cool…thanks for bringing it to my lame attention!
Lyn says
I don’t have a top 25 because I don’t “do” Itunes ..but it sounds like to me that the Chipster listens when visiting! LOL!
Shelley says
this cracked me up. i see i am infatuated with John Mayer and Regina Spektor… hmm.. i need some NEW music!
Cara says
My number 1 on my Itunes is Breathe (2am) by Anna Nalick (grey’s anatomy music…I love it) and my #13 is Fix You by Coldplay. I think I need to sync my Ipod today. I am sure this will change. I have been obsessed with Josh Grobin’s version of Ave Maria lately. I am sure that will become my number 1.
I love this post… you always make me laugh.
Kari says
Number one for me is Song for a Winter’s Night by Sarah McLaughlin and number 13 is Upside Down by Jack Johnson. My daughter has discovered the world of play lists and I’m guessing these songs are both on her most recent list. Most of the other songs are the ever popular (if you’re 5) Welcome to Andyland songs by Andy Z.
sharon says
WOW! My Number one is MLK by U2.. Number 13 is 40 by U2.. Actually 19 of the 25 are U2 songs.. I apparently am a bit obsessed..in need of a new band to be in love with!
Amy Nabors says
my number one was Miracle of the Moment by Stephen Curtis Chapman and my number 13 – Upside Down by Jack Johnson. Thanks for sharing this. I had never taken the time see that the top 25 were on a playlist.
Tracey says
#1 is Up Periscope by Drake Bell, and yes, that’s me listening to him, not my kids. :p And then #13 is Change of Heart by Cyndi Lauper.
jen says
CATHY!
Where did you get Sinner Live Acoustic? That is my current fave song. Ok, so it’s tied with She will have her way and I am in love… but still? WHERE??
Elina says
Number 1: Lehtivihreรคt – Ei meitรค kukaan kaipaa (Finnish band)
Number 13: My Chemical Romance – The Sharpest Lives
Merideth says
no ipod (sob) but we have music going at almost all times. i can tell you the top 100 songs in our home (and car) are veggie tales songs, alphabet songs, nursery rhyme songs, imagination movers songs, dan zanes songs, ralph’s world songs, johnny cash and george strait. my 2 year old is obsessed with all of the above – especially johnny and george. (sigh. i’d rather have 70’s and 80’s music.)
Kristen says
#1 What Are You Looking For by the Sick Puppies and #13 How Far We’ve Come by Matchbox 20 Fun!
Terri says

13: Feeling This by Blink -182
Debbie Wearn says
#1: Summertime – Kenny Chesney (I wish!)
#13: Crying Shame – Jack Johnson
jen paddack-hyde says
I think others in my family have been listening while I’m not at my desk because
#1 Goldigger by Kanye West and #13 Since You Been Gone by Kelly Clarkson would not have been in MY top 25…LOL.
Sharon says
I took that list off of my iTunes but it is easily seen when you use Play Count in your music browser. I can see why I don’t have it as most of the songs are not my favorites but the boys. #13 is Rolling O by They Might Be Giants.
Karen says
My #1 is Fix You by Coldplay & my #13 is …Tougher than the Rest / Bruce Springsteen.
Q: I had to count to work out what was # 13….how do you get the #s column?? I tried right clicking the bar with the column names, but couldn’t get the #s.
Thanks,
Karen
Brek says
Hi Cathy –
My number one is ‘The Polar Express’ by Tom Hanks from the Polar Express soundtrack. Number 13 is ‘Here Comes Santa Clause’ by Bing Crosby and The Andrew Sisters, again from the Polar Express Soundtrack. My kids had me playing the whole album over and over starting about Halloween, and my youngest just asked for it again as I am typing this. Funny thing is, I don’t get tired of it.

it has been a long time since anyone in my household updated their iPod so I think this is kinda outdated…..
#1 Welcome to the Black Parade from My Chemical Romance
#13 Forever from Papa Roach
other than that Linkin Park, LoveHammers, and 3 Doors Down dominate the Top 25.
Kim says
I’m sure Puppy Love got up there so high due to Donny Osmond’s unbelieveably great hair!!!!
Laura says
My #1 is “If You’re Gonna” by Natasha Bedingfield. It was my anthem my freshman year of college, so it got played more than any song on earth should. My #13 is Home by Michael Buble.
Tracy says
I use Napster, so no top 25… ๐ I thought I would share from my “Recently Added” instead…
#1 – The Hand that Feeds by Nine Inch Nails
#13 – Diggin’ Your Scene by The Blow Monkeys
I feel fairly certain there aren’t many songs that are further apart on the music spectrum than these two… ๐
Relly says
#1 – The Other Side of the Moon – Don Tiki remixed.
#13 (oh help!) Milk Monkeys – by Charlie and Lola
(www.charlieandlola.com). i blame my small son.
suetreiber says
I laughed so hard at Puppy Love. Not out of judgement, just out of sheer delight.
And my list is scary.
#1 Stupid Girls by Pink
#13 Criminal by Fiona Apple
I have no excuses. I can’t explain it.

Seriously – check out The Doves (uk Band) Both There goes the Fear and Pounding are right up you alley (if I may be so bold)
Jennifer says
#1: Straighten Up and Fly Right (which was the big number in my 9-y-o son’s winter concert so we listened to it together a lot — recorded by Suzy Bogguss — an unfortunate name no matter how you slice it)
#13: Alanis Morrisette/Hand In My Pocket
Personal fav: Peter Gabriel and Afro Celt Sound System — When You’re Falling
Alli says

#13 – Tell Me ‘Bout It (Joss Stone)
are you reading all of these comments saying “made ya look!” ?
Michelle Payne says
I don’t have an ipod by choice but DH has created a playlist for me from my favorite downloads onto the computer. My choice of music is so different from everyone elses and if you knew me you would be like, I had no idea you listened to that type of music! It’s something my friends say all the time.
Number one song right now is Cyclone by Baby Bash
Number 13 song is Crank That by Soulja Boy
mb says
I believe I have you beat with a”phantom iTunes player”…. apparently my #2, … is the banana splits theme song… it has been played close to 200 times! Scary part is, this computer is in my office and I have NEVER heard the song — really should check on my teens before I go to bed — wondering if they are on the internet after mid-night listening to the banana splits…? (The banana splits adventure hour theme song — Disney…)… and the number 13… is appropriately… The Riddle – by Five for Fighting…. curious, yes?
Shelly says
#1 is My Brilliant Feat by Colin Hay and #13 is Honestly by Cary Brothers. Great list you got there, by the way!
Surcie says
My number one is “Come Dancing” by the Kinks, because my little boy lurves it. (He’s also responsible for #2, The B-52s’ “Rock Lobster.”).
#13 is definitely mine–“You Haven’t Done Nothin'” by Stevie Wonder.
Robin says
# 1 is I’ll Be, by Edwin McCain, (1,182 times)!!!

I think Donny and Marie are subconsciously getting in to people’s itunes list ๐
My #1 song is How Soon Is Now by The Smiths
My #13 song is Orinoco Flow by Enya
Weird…I dont remember listening to either one of those songs all that often!
catherine says
my husband obviously has too much access to the ipod no. 1. is Vicarious by Tool and no. 13. is The Pot by Tool. Hmm I don’t remember ever playing that. I do have some good stuff in the top 25… just not at no. 1 or 13 LOL ๐
Christine Campbell says
No puppy love here, LOL
My #1 – Far Away – Nickelback

Oh dear Lord.
I just scared myself.
Lori N says
I have only been listening to music on my iphone (don’t hate me!) for a couple of days – and it’s been on shuffle the whole time, so my top 25 doesn’t mean anything – everything has only been played once!
But…my very first concert was Donnie & Marie. All I remember is watching Marie do a quick costume change while waving at us poor saps stuck at the side of the stage the whole time. Sweet girl. (& I’m not mormon, either)
Barb Congdon says
Gone, Gone, Gone by Robert Plant/Alison Krauss is my number 1 played and 13 is…………….Southern Man by Neil Young.

Dawn Priestley says
Wow – Thanks for this Cathy!!! I forgot how much I loved Donny Osmond in my younger days (I had to explain to my girls ages 15 and 9 that Donny was the Zac Efron of the day!)
My #1 is Jump by Madonna – my theme song these days. And my #13 is Home by Michael Bublรฉ – our good old Canadian boy! Cheers.
Kim says
I haven’t used iTunes on my computer much lately, but on my iPod, #1 is Heavenly Day by Patty Griffin and #13 is Shout Out Loud by Amos Lee. Love them both. And there’s a lot of other good stuff in between.
Rozanne says
#1 City Beneath the Sea by Harry Connick, Jr. (A very appropriate song given that I live in New Orleans…)
#13 Banana Pancakes by Jack Johnson
MelissaL88 says
My #1 is Dancing in the Street by Van Halen
#13 is Sweet Emotion(Live) by Aerosmith
It’s fun to see how it changes over time. I’m surprised, though, that there is no Christmas music in my Top 25. I guess I didn’t listen to it that much.
Stefanie says
I was a little hesitant to check my Top 25…….I was (still am) addicted to Donny Osmond’s new album. But my #1 is Sunday Bloody Sunday – U2 #13 You – Candlebox.
Lauren says
My #1 most played song is “The Boy With the Thorn in His Side” by the Smiths, played 386 times in 7 months. #13 is “Right Now” by Van Halen. Hmmm…
Rachel says
#1 is “Friends in Low Places” by Garth Brooks
#13 is “Always Look on the Bright Side of Life” from the Spamalot Musical
Danielle says
Hi Cathy- it’s an awesome question and I love answering to things like these. I listen to a lot of country and folk music,so my number one song is “These Boots” by Eric Church (s great song!) and my number 13 song is “My Love Will Keep” by Adrienne Young and Little Sadie (an even better song!).
Heather Johnson says
My #1 — Merry Christmas to You by Bing Crosby
My #13 — Thanksgiving by George Winston
Both of these influenced by baby. In those first few days/weeks when I thought I was going to die from sleep deprivation, Bing was the only thing that could put me to sleep. George was good for when I was pregnant. I listened to it every night to meditate….what I would give for a nice quiet night to meditate now!
Christine Villacarlos says
my #1 is Ever After by Bonnie Bailey. Well, no surprises there! But i’m definitely surprised by my #13, haha! Yo Vivire by a Celia Cruz (???) What’s up with that!
Cass H says
#1 is “Breathe Me” by Sia
And #13 is “Won’t Give in” by Finn Brothers (freaky because you love Neil so much and it’s one of only two Neil songs that make my Top 25 at the moment – the other being “Fall at your Feet”)

Kiera says
I pulled up mine and I actually laughed out loud because I thought it’d be much hipper than it is.
#1 is ‘Float On’ by Modest Mouse (at 186 plays) and
#13 is ‘Simon Smith and his Amazing Dancing Bear’ from The Muppet Show (and #7 is Kermit singing ‘Happy Feet’).
heather says
I’m thinking that on the iTunes list online, it factors in all of our ipods (mine, dh, and the 3 kids) . . .surely that’s right. Because ALL of the top 25 are songs my kids listen to! So, on here . . .
#1 Move It Like This by the Baha Men
#13 I Love by Tom T. Hall (this song is who knows how old . .. I sang it in the 6th grade at the school talent show!)
I’m gonna have to hunt down my iPod to see what’s the top 25 on it. Surely I’m more hip there!
Karalyn B says
My #1 is “Popular” from the Wicked Soundtrack…and #13 is “Stealing Kisses” Faith Hill
Shelly says
Okay, I am Mormon and while my #13 isn’t Puppy Love, it is ‘I’m trying to be like Jesus’. #1 is Sou-gan. I need to sync my ipod as I listen to Josh Groban or Clay Akin more than anyone.

Jennie says
#1 Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol (disappointed in myself)
#13 Fortunate Son – CCR (that’s better)
Jen Laughlin says

My #1 is The Pretenders “Don’t Get Me Wrong,” which is a bit of a surprise, and #13 is “Bohemian Like You” by the Dandy Warhols from the Flushed Away soundtrack. That movie was soooo underrated.

Ummm… I play itunes through my stereo a lot with the kids, so I’d be embarrassed to tell you. Well, okay… #1 is Elvira by the Oak Ridge Boys. Strange.

Ha! #1 Cupid Shuffle by Cupid. Not proud of that one. I had family here for the holidays and they insisted I teach them the dance for my uncle’s wedding in February. #13 Who She 2 U by Brandy. Love this song!

fun posting – loved seeing what everyone was listening to! i just reinstalled itunes (new laptop for christmas!) – so my counts are only 2 weeks old – #1 is honey & the moon by joseph arthur (guess thanks to my 16 year old daughter who is/was obsessed with the O.C.) and #13 is la vie en rose by louis armstrong from the something’s gotta give soundtrack – a favorite for scrapping, which I did a lot of these past two weeks
artcricket says
My itunes plays “Heaven/Where True Love Goes” by Yusef Islam (formerly Cat Stevens) twice in a row all by itself -that is a learned behavior. For a blast from the past I listen to Amie by P.P.L. (Pure Prarie League). For giggles it’s Hey Eugene by Pink Martini and for spinning around the room, Section 9(Light and Day) by Polyphonic Spree…..
Lisa says
i rue the day all of my kids ipods got connected to mine. first–my 11 year old thought that the itunes songs were free and spent $35. on ashlee simpson. ug. second–out of my 25 most played songs i only have six that are mine.
#1–you’re so true–joseph arthur–shrek 2
#13–shimmy shimmy quarter turn–hellogoodbye
neither are songs i know.

#1 We are the Dinosaurs by Laurie Berkner #13 Jump into the LIght by Jana Alayra. Apparently my kids use the ipod more often than I do. Sad, actually… ๐

Not really related to this post, but sorta…I was reading Family Fun magazine today and saw that some Neil Young songs are featured on this album. Since you’re the only person I “know” (and not even in real life!) that loves Neil Young, I thought it my duty to make sure you knew about it. I’m sure you do. But just in case, it’s called “Down at the Sea Hotel” and is at Amazon:

Hey Cathy
I am sure puppy love is in my top 25… plus a lot of other cheesy love songs… I can’t check because I am just listening to my ipod at work, and itunes is at home… surely Donny occupies at least a couple of spots… have a happy

Here is a link to my blog with my top 25 tunes. Pretty good variety. Well, it could be better but it’s funny what songs you will listen to over and over. I think I’ll do this again in a couple of months to see if I’ve switched to different songs or if most of them stay the same. I would guess it’ll change depending on my mood.

my #1 song was U2’s Sometimes you can’t make it on your own
my #13 song was Sarah McLachlan’s Fallen
Thanks for posting this as I listened to a few new artists from the comments ๐

Kathy,
I laughed so hard at your post! My top song of the hour is a live rendition of Depeche Mode’s “Higher Love”. That song grips me, turns me inside out. I put the video of it on my blog is you are curious (creationsceecee.blogspot.com). I can’t get enough of it. In fact, I am totally obsessed with it.
Hmmmm, my #13? Oh, I don’t want to talk about it; it’s worst than yours. “So Sick: Remix” by Neo featuring LL Cool J… that’s really bad (hangs her head in shame).

I stumbled upon your blog from Ali Edwards’ blog (I think…I’ve been blog hopping all morning!) and I love your post.
My number one most played song is Music Is My Hot, Hot Sex by CSS and number 13 is Look After You by The Fray. And just for fun, since my favorite number is 5, number 5 is No One by Alicia Keys.
