Nunca fui de fazer listinha de top isso ou aquilo. Mas olhando para as minhas músicas mais ouvidas no Last.fm eu percebi que eu ouço muita música no pc. Ela reflete bem as músicas que não importa humor, época, local ou companhia eu sempre tenho um desejo incontrolável de ouvir e com certeza vou apreciá-las ao máximo.
Esta lista no entanto não bate necessariamente com as minhas top 10 ouvidas no Last, mas chega perto.

10 - Don McLean - American Pie: Devia ter avisado desde o começo que essa lista terá alguns clichês. Pode me xingar, chamar de antiquado, falar que é óbvio, que eu estou tentando não me arriscar. Tudo isso pode até ser verdade, mas é inegável que esse clássico de mais de oito minutos é nada menos que maravilhoso. Com sua letra indecifrável, mas com muitas possibilidades de interpretações alegóricas. É a música perfeita para enterros, Amazing Grace que me perdoe.
09 - Pixies - Monkey Gone To Heaven: Desde que eu me conheço por gente eu sou ateu. …

Si hay un grupo que me hace recordar con nostalgia los 80 esos son los 10000 Maniacs; tengo pocos recuerdos de esa década (nací en el 1981), pero cuando escucho alguna canción de ellos me vienen a la mente recuerdos nostálgicos, aunque mas que recuerdos lo que realmente me ocurre es que se apodera de mí cierto sentimiento nostálgico agridulce, pero reconozco que me gusta. Aunque mas bien cuando hablo de los 80 me estoy refiriendo a cuando comencé a tener uso de razón, mis recuerdos más antiguos creo que serán sobre el 87, por aquel año fui ingresado en el hospital a causa de una meningitis... Because The Night (pedazo de canción)

DIRECTIONS:Put your iTunes or whatever music application you use on random. Write down the first 10 songs that play here. Then, write a random fact about that song (Where you first heard it, how you started listening to it, any emotions it evokes.. ANYTHING!) And pass it on!

1. Pink Floyd - Careful With That Axe, Eugene
this song brings me back to when i was just beginning to delve deeper into pink floyd's body of work, roughly november 2004-february 2005. this song is featured on pink floyd: live at pompeii, which i borrowed from my friend nadia and subsequently bought because i loved it so much...and in remembering live in pompeii, i'm reminded of my obsession with David Gilmour and his secksiness in the film ;D

2. The Exies - My Goddess
this song reminds me of the time just before and overlapping with the last song - the fall of 2004, my junior year of high school. not the best time of my life, but not the worst either. this was track 6 or 7 on the mix cd i burned in early october. …

Well I reached 30,000 songs yesterday. I've done this for the first 2 thousand, so here we go. My 30,000th song was Because the Night (classic Patti Smith cover). It's interesting how much some things in the charts change, while others stay pretty much the same. :)

My Top 20 as of now:
1. The Beatles 386
2. Dusty Springfield 336
3. ABBA 319
4. t.A.T.u. 270
5. Lesley Gore 251
6. The Cardigans 228

Hallo, ich bin's (wer hätt's gedacht)!

Ich hab mal wieder 2 neue Spielereien gefunden, einmal ein Library-Game und ein Last.fm-Game (Juhu!!! Wie abwechslungsreich!)...

Kommen wir zum ersten, das Last.fm-Game:
Man nehme seinen Top-Artist (in meinem Falle Bloc Party) und picke bei den "Similar Artists" den ersten heraus, dann nimmt man bei dem wieder den ersten "Similar Artist" und so weiter und sofort. Sollte sich was wiederholen, nimmt man einfach den 2. oder 3.. Das macht man dann 50 mal oder so, je nachdem, wann einem die Lust vergeht. So, aufgepasst hier! Wir starten:

01. Bloc Party
02. The Arcade Fire
03. Sufjan Stevens
04. The Decemberists
05. The Shins
06. Death Cab For Cutie
07. The Postal Service
08. Bright Eyes
09. Elliot Smith
10. Iron & Wine
11. Neutral Milk Hotel
12. Of Montreal
13. Architecture in Helsinki
14. Belle and Sebastian
15. The Flaming Lips
16. Beck
17. Radiohead
18. Coldplay
19. Oasis
20. The Killers
21. Franz Ferdinand
