I Usually Eschew Such Memes




But this one's kinda fun:

Your instructions
Step 1: Open your MP3 [CD] player.
Step 2: Put all of your music on random.
Step 3: Write down the first 20 songs it plays, no matter how embarrassing.
Step 4: Profit!

Let's see what comes up..

1. A snippet of me singing "Devil's Pie", for some reason
2. PJ Harvey - "Oh My Lover"
3. Vince Guaraldi - "Linus and Lucy"
4. Prince - "Controversy" (Live in Japan, 9/9/86 - his last show ever with the Revolution)
5. Oscar Peterson - "Volare"
6. Rosa Passos - "Inutil Paisagem"
7. Memphis Bleek w/ Freeway and Just Blaze - "Just Blaze, Bleek & Free"
8. Prince - "Lady Cab Driver" (same concert as above)
9. Wilson Simonal - "Nem Vem Que Não Tem"
10. Gangstarr - "Mass Appeal (instrumental)"
11. Jackie Mittoo - "Black Organ"
12. Dynamic Corvettes - "Funky Music Pt. 1"
13. Biggie - freestyle over Casual's "I Didn't Mean To" (courtesy of DJ Mister Cee)
14. Lewis Taylor "Electric Ladyland"
15. Brian Auger and The Trinity - "Tiger"
16. Prince - "Sex" (b-side on the "Scandalous" 12-inch)
17. BDP - "We In There" (downloaded so I could take that sample for my "Unicorn" song)
18. Antônio Pinto & Ed Cortês - "Estória da Boca"
19. Gilberto Gil - "Queremos Guerra"
20. George_Harrison - "Here Comes the Sun" (Live at the Concert for Bangladesh)
21. Dr. Dre and Royce the 5'9 - "The Way I Be Pimpin" (reworked into "Xxxplosive" after Dre and Royce had their falling out)
22. Peter Tosh - "Here Comes the Sun" (I DL-ed about 15 versions of this when George died)
23. Dan the Automator - "My Guru" (from the "Bombay the Hard Way" album)
24. Slave feat. Steve Arrington "Nobody Can Be You" (BEST SONG EVER)
25. Pretty Purdie & The Playboys - "Funky Mozart"

No way I could stop at 20 with all these dope jams popping up.

What y'all got?

Well I guess I better get some more snappy commentary going in here! :)

I saw Dan Bern opening for Ani Difranco once.

Posted by: jay smooth at February 20, 2004 6:03 PM

Thanks for the idea, here is my list.

Posted by: Matt at February 21, 2004 12:47 PM

I'm thoroughly impressed. About the first other person I ever run into who's even heard of Dan Bern, and it's a guy with a hip-hop blog.

Friend of mine hung out with Dan at a bar once and said he was a nice guy. But I heard he's not on speaking terms with Ani Difranco anymore; apparently she did some things he didn't like to the album of his she produced.
