There's a few songs that always get played. Some songs you skip through on the old ipod, but some songs get the nonstop play. So I decided to look through my itunes library and see which ones get the most plays. I was actually surprised. Escpecially since I go through musical waves. For instance, this week it's all about Action Bronson. But two weeks ago, I had a lot of De La Soul playing.
So here are my top played songs according to my itunes library:
1. Fast Car by Tracy Chapman. No question that this is probably one of my all time favorite songs. It was one of the first songs I ever tried to play on the guitar. To this day, I still can't play it though....or any other song for that matter.
2. Blister in the Sun by the Violent Phemmes. I loved this song when I was in high school. It was one of the few non-rap songs I had on most mixtapes.
3. Best of Burden by The Rolling Stones. Such a good tune. I really can't say much more. Normally when this comes on, I gotta play it all the way through.
4. Silent Treatment by The Roots. Single handedly, my favorite song of all time. During my middle to high school years, I don't think there was ever a time where I didn't play this song and think about the new girl I had a crush on. I remember very vividly playing this as I sat in my room drawing graffiti sketches of her name. Looking back now, I can probably understand why they gave me the silent treatment! But damn this song has such a cool feel to it. Do You Want More!?!?! is probably one of my top three albums of all time. Overall, the whole thing is just classic.
5. Lovin' It by Little Brother. Little Brother is by far and away my most favorite group since 2004. The remind me of a newer Tribe Called Quest. I used to play this jam all the time on the way to college. This was pre-day song almost every day in 2005.
6. Tan Leather by Action Bronson. Anyone who can rap about "Bone marrow roasted/spread it on the rosemary bread lightly toasted/drizzle with the vinaigrette" is solid in my book. He is absolutely my new favorite rapper.
7. Wild Side by Lou Reed. Again, this was one of those songs that I used to play a ton as a kid. I loved it when Tribe sampled the song for theirs. It's just got one of those good song stories and a great rhythm.
8. Stay by Lisa Loeb. Nah, just kidding. It's actually Charlie Chaplin by Asher Roth. I play this song a lot when it's just one of those good days. Nice weather, nice morning, nice breeze.
