My Top 12 Played Songs on iTunes (and my theories on why)
I took out duplicates of the same artist, so its just the first song on the list by them...
And here’s the final countdown (do do do do, do do do do do....):
12.“White Tooth Man”--Iron and Wine
Theory: Whenever I listen to Iron and Wine I generally put it on shuffle. Clearly this is the one that just happened to pop up the most often. To be honest, this isn’t my favorite song by them but it appears to be my computer’s favorite...
11. “Sic Transit Gloria...Glory Fades”--Brand New
Theory: I kept replaying this song over and over when I was learning it on bass. And it’s just an amazing song anyways.
10. “C’est La Vie”--B*Witched
Theory: Louisa and I were so amazed by the dirtiness of the lyrics and the fact that it was played on Disney channel that we kept listening to it. And making other people listen to it. And by the time we had done that enough it was so stuck in our heads we couldn’t stop listening to it..
9. “Uh-Huh”--Munchausen By Proxy (Zooey Deschanel & Von Iva)
Theory: This song is awesome, I’m sure I’ve had it on repeat once. Or the Soundtrack it’s from on repeat. Something like that.
8. “Why Don’t We Do It In The Road?”--Dana Fuchs
Theory: Because Across the Universe is amazing. As are the Beatles. And Dana Fuchs. I listen to this soundtrack constantly, this just happens to be the most played song from it.
7. “Don’t Go Away”--Buckcherry”
Theory: I’m actually not sure why this song is played so often. Maybe because I just saw them in concert and had it stuck in my head after?? Oh well. Good song I guess. Haha.
6. “Bo ‘Fo ‘Sho”--Bo Burnham
Theory: When I first got this, I listened to it on repeat. Enough said.
5. “Butterfly”--Jason Mraz
Theory: Jason Mraz is awesome and catchy.
4. “On The Way Down”--Ryan Cabrera
Theory: I didn’t expect this one to be so far up on the list.... That’s slightly embarrassing. Okay, not really. Not at all. :)
3. “Wore Me Down”--Rachael Yamagata
Theory: This is one of 293289832 Rachael Yamagata songs on my top played list. I love love love LOVE her music. Because she is amazing and this song is pretty much the epitome of her amazing-ness. Along with like 10 other songs....
2. “Dear God”--Avenged Sevenfold
Theory: I heard it in concert and loved it. They’ve actually succeeded in combining country and rock... And I think I was trying to learn it on guitar for a bit so I had it on repeat.
1.“Jizz In My Pants”--The Lonely Island
Theory: I’ve listened to this so many times because a) its catch b) its funny and c) it constantly comes up in conversation. I just wrote this list and I jizzed in my pants. Yesss.
