So I have been absent blogs for some time. It's not that I haven't had anything to talk about, it's just that I haven't found the time.
So after seeing a fellow tweeter twitter.com/@staceinspire tweeting a simple blog I thought I'd follow suit.
So I promptly went to my computer, switched on my iTunes and hit shuffle. At this stage and prior to pressing play I realised that this could be very interesting. Essentially the aim is to write down the first 10 songs your system plays on random. There is no reason for this, no deep meaning, no interesting analysis to be found. It is a simple but fun quickie!
Now my iTunes library has over 3000 songs. A total of 8.8 days playing time, it is an eclectic mix and could have thrown up some surprises.
So here's the list as it happened, no cheating, no hiding...
1. The possibility of life's destruction - Machine Head from The Blackening (Special Edition)
2. Slow Burn - Atreyu from Leads Sails Paper Anchor
3. Begging For Mercy - Bullet For My Valentine from Fever
4. Just because I can - Seasick Steve from Man from Another Time
5. You'll follow me down - Skunk Anansie from Smashes & Trashes
6. Away from the Sun - 3 Doors Down from Away from the Sun
7. Harder than you know (Acoustic) - Escape the Fate from This war is Ours (Deluxe Edition)
8. The little things give you away - Linkin Park from Minutes to Midnight
9. Utrydd dei Svake - Kvelertak from Kvelertak
10. Mutiny - Pendulum from In Silico
At least it didn't find any of my Rascal Flatts tunes or Gaga tunes :-0
So there you have it, it's worth a try, you might find some surprises in your library, perhaps rediscover some old favourites.
On a completely separate note and to aid my rehabilitation, I have deleted and purged all ties to Made In Chelsea - series 3 is way too scripted lol
