Post your random iPod song

[Groundhog]

This game is simple. Grab your iPod, set it to shuffle, and post the first song that plays.

For me:

Ween - Buckingham Green

[TheOhioStateUniversity]

Stay Fly Remix (3 6 Mafia)

[MJ4H]

Code Monkey - Jonathan Coulton

[Joe]

Here Comes the Sun (Beatles)

[Craptacular]

I don't have an Ipod, but when I put the WMP playlist on my work computer on shuffle on Friday, the first song that came up was "Winter Song" from Crash Test Dummies.

[vex]

Wire by Third Day

[Groundhog]

Actually, let's step this baby up a notch. Let's construct a random, 12 track album from your playlist.

Including the first one I listed about, this is Groundhog's "Random 12" album:

1) Ween - Buckingham Green
2) Tool - Reflection
3) System of a Down - Attack
4) Jade Warrior - Rainflower
5) Beethoven - Piano Sonata No.8 in C minor
6) Les Claypool and the Holy Mackerel - Granny's Little Yard Gnome
7) Gotic - Historia d'Una Gota d'Aigua
8) The Beatles - Polythene Pam
9) Outkast - Knowing
10) Red Hot Chili Peppers - Can't Stop
11) William Shatner - Real
12) White Willow - Paper Moon

Interesting. Starts out pretty, gets heavy with some Tool & SoaD, then slips in to relaxation mode with Jade Warrior and Beethoven, before a real mish mash of remaining tracks.

[Celeval]

1) Noldor (Dead Winter Reigns) - Blind Guardian
2) Chapter 14: The Triumph of the Witch - C.S. Lewis (audiobook)
3) Forest Lake - The Glengarry Bhoys
4) Visit The Zoo and Letters from Hogwarts - John Williams (Harry Potter Soundtrack)

9) Ordinary - The Alternate Routes
10) Have You Ever Needed Someone So Bad - Def Leppard
11) Do You Hear What I Hear - Mannheim Steamroller
12) Misery - Trans-Siberian Orchestra

[Celeval]

Dola... probably more representative if I shuffle my 3+ star playlist:

1) Notes / Prima Donna - Andrew Lloyd Webber
2) See Thru Me - Soul Miner's Daughter
3) Lost Horizons - Gin Blossoms
4) It's Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas - Bing Crosby
5) Time Stands Still (At The Iron Hill) - Blind Guardian
6) Cross Ties - Soul Miner's Daughter
7) If I Were a Rich Man - Zero Mostel

9) Hero Takes a Fall - Bangles
10) Piano Man - Billy Joel
11) Are You Lonely? - The Alternate Routes
12) Old City Bar - Trans-Siberian Orchestra

Hm... iPod has a thing for pulling from the one Blind Guardian CD I have, and ending with TSO tonight.

[Butter]

12) Sugar Water - Cibo Matto

If you've never seen it, YouTube this video. Very, very good.

[John Galt]

If you've never seen it, YouTube this video. Very, very good.

Yeah, it's a Michel Gondry video which is generally a good bet. For those of you who don't know Gondry, he got his break directing some Bjork videos (along with many other famous videos like "Fell in Love with a Girl") before getting into movies including directing Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.

A video that is probably dissimilar, but seems related in my mind for some reason is God Lives Underwater's "From Your Mouth." I just checked and it is on YouTube if you are interested.
