Cafe Society

I think your tastes are most in line with mine of those who’ve posted so far.

22

And I always join in. >_>

  1. Blur - Charmless Man
  2. Blur - On Your Own.
    (Hmm…is this properly shuffling?)
  3. Ishikawa Chiaka - Utsukushi Kereba Sore de Ii
    (Apparently so.)
  4. Alice Cooper - This Maniac’s In Love With You
  5. Aoiro 7 - Aoi Sports Car no Otoko
    (Definitely shuffling well…awful lot near the beginning of the alphabet, but since my music folder isn’t entirely properly alphabetical…)
  6. Tommy february[sup]6[/sup] - Everyday At The Bus Stop
  7. Oingo Boingo - I’m So Bad.
  8. Alice Cooper - Bye Bye Baby
    (Hrm…I think I’ll go to 11, with these artist dupes…)
  9. MALICE MIZER - Brise
  10. Night Ranger - Sister Christian
  11. Blur - Essex Dogs
    (OH, WHAT THE HELL? 12!)
  12. Deborah Gibson - How Can This Be?
23

Sounds like fun! I’ll try adding Youtube links for the songs that come up, assuming I can find any:

  1. Yasunori Mitsuda – Is Kirite Burning Up?
  2. Rammstein – Los
  3. Peter, Paul and Mary – Light One Candle
  4. Enya – Pax Deorum
  5. Red Army Choir – Echelon’s Song
  6. E.S. Posthumus – Antissa (Thanks, this thread! :D)
  7. Nikolai Massenkoff – Korobeiniki (I couldn’t find a Massenkoff rendition, but here’s the legendary Ivan Rebroff filling in)
  8. Luca Turilli – Black Dragon
  9. Pinetop Seven – High on a Summer’s Tree
  10. Keiko Matsui – Forever, Forever

And one more for good measure, to make, um, a baker’s ten:

  1. Poets of the Fall – Carnival of Rust

Nothing really embarrassing came up in the first 11, which is surprising, since I know I have a lot of it in there. A fair amount of Cher, for example. And ABBA. Not to mention the entire soundtrack of Fiddler on the Roof. I make no apologies for the John Denver, though. :wink:

24

**Shooting Star - Boyzone **(It’s from a Disney soundtrack :frowning: )
Wild Thing - Jimi Hendrix (My Zune, for whatever reason has a crush on Jimi. The shuffle plays him way more then it should)
Set The Controls for the Heart - Pink Floyd
The Story of Nothing - The Aquabats! (great ska band if you’ve never heard of them)
Ring Them Bells - Heart (Heart can do way better.)
Crawlin’ King Snake - John Lee Hooker (There’s something about those blues songs. They depress me.)
Blah Blah Blah - Hüsker Dü
Hard to Handle - Otis Redding (Badass.)
One More Saturday Night - Grateful Dead
Pills - Gary Jules (Guess it’s on the album with his Mad World cover)

It’ll be interesting to make a list and then a graph out of all the songs that show up. I might have to do that in a few days after the thread starts to die down.

11.Whoa, it’s like Queensryche meets City of Lost Children.

Makes me want to dig up a youtube list with my mp3 player.
Right quick though, ten from winamp on my old computer(more likely to be wierder and/or more embarrasing stuff).
1)No Diggity - Black Street ft Dr Dre

3)Peanut Butter and Jelly Time - Don’t know who did it, but damn them!
4)*Duck Tales Theme *(Woo-Oo!)

7)*Cows With Guns *- Unknown
8)Behind The Walls(remix) - Kurupt ft Shyne
9)Forever My Lady - Jodeci
10)Seether - Varuca Salt
…I suppose the PB&J and DT theme are pretty bad, but it could’ve been much worse.

37

“Chewbacca, Chewbacca, Lake Titicaca. Chewbacca’s on a scooter man, holy crap!”
Oh yeah. Return of the Aquabats was one of the first two ska albums I’ve ever got(Mustard Plug’s Evildoers Beware!, the other).

The first [del]ten[/del]dozen* from my iRiver that are on youtube…

1)Lynguistics- Doseone
2)Civil Obedience- Sage Francis
3)Fable Salt - Qwel (I love this song!)
4)Say Hello To Heaven - Temple Of The Dog (Kind of a curve ball after the first three, but a good song)
5)Fire For the People - Blue Scholars(hereis the album version, but the other video really captures what the Blue Scholars are about; a small, semi-impromptu, live performance- “BAYAN USA Picket in front of LA Philippine Consulate”; though I’m not sure what the specific protest is about)
6)Remember The Time- Michael Jackson (“… The Time” sure, but damn, can’t believe I forgot about that video)
7)Man I Use To Be - K-os
8)Fearless- Saul Williams
9)Hold On - Tom Waits (Cool, I never realized there was an actual video for this song)
10)Ordinary Guy - Blue Scholars
11)Revival- Soulsavers (Amazing song and video)
12)Scarecrow - Grayskul(Bookends my first list)

*a two-fer artist, the bookend, and a streak of songs actually on youtube at the end; I cheated and added two.

38

1.) Outkast - Rosa Parks
2.) Gatsby’s American Dream - Just Like Heaven
3.) Our Lady Peace - Somewhere Out There
4.) The Jerky Boys - Breast Enlargement
5.) The Dubliners - James LArkin
