Rules: take your iPod (or MP3 player of choice), select All Songs, and then hit Shuffle Play. Post here a list of the Title and Artist for the first ten songs that play, in order. The aim is to see what obscure stuff you've got in your music collections, and how eclectic your tastes are......
EDIT: New rule on page 4 - you need to also say what track you like best from the previous list!
Here's mine this morning:
1. Sadness Part 2 - Enigma 2. Stranded - Alien Ant Farm 3. Stories For Boys - U2 4. Keep On Skanking - Bob Marley 5. Hey Child - East 17 6. Angie - Rolling Stones 7. Little Wing - Jimi Hendrix 8. Imitation Of Life - REM 9. We Are So Fragile - Gary Numan 10. One Tree Hill - U2
