What’s on your Top 25 Most Played?

January 3, 2008

What’s on your Top 25 Most Played?

Top25

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.

    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. ๐Ÿ˜€
    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. ๐Ÿ™‚

    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!

    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!

    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.

    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.

    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.)

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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!).

    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!

    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”)

    #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’).

    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!

    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…..

    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:

    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.

    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).

    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.
