What are the top 10 on your iTunes play count list? It’s a marriage of preference and randomness.
Mine are…
I really wish I could’ve saved my play counts when I wiped my computer when I came home from university. It’s not a bad list but everything is a little too “new”.
Both my husband and son also have iPods, so they have added to the play counts.
1.) This Is How I Disappear - My Chemical Romance
2.) Stricken - Disturbed
3.) Rock You Like A Hurricane - Scorpions
4.) Helicopter - Bloc Party
5.) Crushcrushcrush - Paramore
6.) Crazy Train - Ozzy Osbourne
7.) Hells Bells - AC/DC
8.) Life Is Beautiful - Sixx: A.M.
9.) Throguh The Fire And Flames - Dragonforce
10.) Can’t Be Saved - Senses Fail

Not a bad sample, since I’ve had this computer for less than a year. My iPod play count list looks pretty different - there Dear Prudence is the most-played Beatles song, and The Clash and The White Stripes are represented pretty heavily.
Jello, I like your tastes in music. You have a good bunch of songs on your iPod it seems.
The computer that had all my music died but I was able to copy most of what I had to my newer one. Lost my play counts in the process; here’s my top 10 from back in May.

Coldplay - Fix You
U2 - Who’s Gonna Ride Your Wild Horses (The Temple Bar Mix)
U2 - Running to Stand Still / Dirty Old Town (Live at Point Depot, Dublin, 31 Dec '89)
Coldplay - The Scientist
U2 - I Still Haven’t Found What I’m Looking For (Live at Point Depot, Dublin, 31 Dec '89)
David Usher - The Music
U2 - With or Without You
Live - Lightning Crashes
U2 - One
Chantal Kreviazuk - All I Can Do
Play count ranges from 631 to 580. I suspect the new Coldplay album will move it’s way up the charts eventually but it may take a little while. In case anyone’s wondering, I have U2 playlist that gets altered every now an again. Those five generally find their way onto the list with the numbers 2 and 3 on there every time.
I suppose this is pretty representative. I listen to a ton of movie soundtracks but I have so many of them that it’s tough for any one to find their way onto the list. The same goes for classical music.
Taking The Farm - The War On Drugs
On The Water - The Walkmen
Arms Like Boulders - The War On Drugs
Gamma Ray - Beck
Oscar The Grouch - The Cool Kids
For Agent 13 - The Besnard Lakes
One Two - The Cool Kids
Politics - Frog Eyes
Old Man October - The Childballads
MIA ft Gorilla Zoe and Santogold - Get It Up
The new War on Drugs and Walkmen albums have been fighting The Cool Kids for play time. Frog Eyes refuses to give up a couple spots…
Dance With Me Tonight - The Wonders
Pancho & Lefty - Emmylou Harris
My Back Pages - Bob Dylan with Freaking Everybody
Baby Don’t You Break My Heart Slow - Vonda Shepard
Tarkio Road - Brewer & Shipley
All Night Long - Jefferson Starship
Through the Fire and Flames - Dragonforce
Fanfare For The Common Man - ELP
My Love Will Not Let You Down(Live) - Bruce Springsteen
Like A Hurricane - Neil Young
Interesting - I’ve never ranked them by play count before.
Okay, here’s mine:
Anna Stesia - Prince (92)
And God Created Woman - Prince (86)
Da Bang - Prince (72)
Damn U - Prince (69)
The Dance - Prince (66)
Get Loose - Prince (64)
Chelsea Rodgers- Prince (62)
Back to the Matter - Bedouin Soundclash (61)
Don’t Play Me - Prince (61)
The Greatest Romance Ever Sold - Prince (59)
and a bonus track so it doesn’t look like all I ever listen to is Prince - My Love by Justin Timberlake (57)
Hmm. Didn’t think I listened to Prince THAT much!
I’ll tell you one thing about Prince - as you can see, I’ve listened to these songs a fair bit, and reading the list, I want to hear them again. Not bad, eh?
Yes, they are all Danish except two (and all bubblegum dance), why do you ask?

I had to force myself to stop. This is too much fun. Apparently, I listened to Nick Lowe’s 2007 album, "At My Age, " a lot.
Play counts range from 59 to 45, although I’ve heard some of these songs and others that didn’t make the iTunes Top 10 many more times than that.
I was going to start this thread last night…seriously!
Not a lot of variety here…
Despite what you see here my library is very diverse. Apparently I just don’t listen to most of it.
