Put your iTunes on shuffle and make a list of the first 25 artist's - to see your different music taste.


This first list I put together using my entire music library. It's not a very accurate result based on that, given that I've copied the majority of the CD's belonging to my younger brother and his family, not to mention my parents CD's as well. So, I have a lot of music, but it's not all necessarily to my taste ;) This did show me that I have music I like, but forgot I had though.

1. Tenacious D.
2. Jim Brickman.
3. Gin Blossoms.
4. Santana.
5. Hot Water Music.
6. Goo Goo Dolls.
7. Hollies.
8. Brand New Heavies Feat. Jamalski.
9. Mariah Carey.
10. Supertramp.
11. Sailor Moon.
12. Bruce Springsteen.
13. Soundgarden.
14. (Mamagubida 07) Tryo - La misére d'e [Song Title - artist not listed].
15. Metallica.
16. Eve 6.
17. Martina McBride.
18. Various Artists[I've got more of those than I thought...].
19. Charlie Rich.
20. John Lennon.
21. Blue Man Group.
22. A*Teens.
23. Baha Men.
24. Bing Crosby.
25. Eminem.

This list I made using my "Master" playlist that I listen to when I'm not looking for a specific artist/song/mood. Right now this playlist has 591 songs, and is a much more accurate sampling than the 9484 songs/other stuff in my library.

1. Queen.
2. Baha Men.
3. Ray Stevens.
4. Smashmouth.
5. Sharpay & Ryan.
6. Stevie Nicks.
7. Train.
8. Lit.
9. Grace Potter & The Nocturnals.
10. The Doobie Brothers.
11. Coldplay.
12. Matchbox Twenty.
13. Jonas Brothers.
14. Aaliyah.
15. Jessica Simpson.
16. Hannah Montana.
17. Pointer Sisters.
18. The All-American Rejects.
19. Nick Lachey.
20. The Ditty Bops.
21. Weird Al Yankovic.
22. Ash.
23. Jeff Foxworthy.
24. Porcelain Black.
25. Lynyrd Skynyrd.

Even though the second list is more accurate, I do think that specific songs give more away about a person's music tastes, but since most artists tend to have a similar sound across their works, I suppose it works well enough.

I'm still in the process of adding the rest of my CD's to my library. I had them all on there before but when my mother's old system kicked the bucket, it kinda of messed with my master list. We got most of the songs on the external hard drive but not everything made it on there. I'm just grateful that the songs I actually purchased from iTunes was alright or I would have screamed. I don't even want to discuss the amount of money I've wasted shopping on iTunes.

I agree, I was ever so glad that I had a back up of the stuff I've purchased on iTunes, cause as you said, the amount of money put into it, for a digital file....yeah.

supposedly apple is working on getting the rights to allow people to re-download music that they've previously bought from iTunes, should something like that happen to them, but I'm not sure where they are with that.
