Schizo Ipod

I just reviewed my last 20 itunes purchases and there is a distinct possibility that I am going mad.

Come on Get Higher: Matt Nathanson
Just Dance: Lady Gaga
Go On Say It: Blind Pilot
The Story I Heard: Blind Pilot
Oviedo: Blind Pilot
One Red Thread: Blind Pilot
Running Down A Dream: Tom Petty
Work It: Missy Elliot
My Prerogitive: Bobby Brown
Single Ladies (Put A Ring On it): Beyonce
Hot N Cold: Katy Perry
Are You Gonna Go My Way: Lenny Kravitz
Viva La Vida: Cold Play

Keep Breathing: Ingrid Michaelson
Tell It to My Heart: Taylor Dayne
What's Up: 4 Non Blondes
Walking In Memphis: Marc Cohn
My Boo: Ghostown DJ's
Alive and Kicking: Simple Minds

As well as the entire Yo Gabba Gabba soundtrack which I figured didn't really count, since I don't really listen to it. Except for the Ting Tings song and the Family song. But besides that...it's for the children.

But really, take a look at this list.
I heard Blind Pilot on NPR and I loved them so I downloaded a few tracks and have not regretted it. They are great. But from Tom Petty to Missy Elliot to Bobby Brown to Taylor Dayne back to Ghostown DJ's, Marc Cohn and finish it off with Simple Minds? I might need a MRI.

Shout Out

If you haven't downloaded iTunes 8.0 yet...go do it now.
Over the weekend, I discovered the genius of the Genius setting in iTunes 8 and I love it passionately. For example? I have been loving the song Mr. Brightside by the Killers for running. I clicked on the song, then clicked on the Genius button and a whole playlist was created from my library of music of like minded songs. I decided to give it a listen while running today and I pumped out 4 miles in 32 minutes. 8 minute miles people. Not nearly as fast as I was in college, but for a 30-year old mom...I'll take it.

Mr. Brightside-The Killers
Don't Look Back in Anger-Oasis
Dare You to Move -Switchfoot
Lovesong -The Cure
Bigger Than My Body-John Mayer
We're Going to Be Friends-The White Stripes
