TT: In case you think I'm a total highbrow
My new iTunes program contains a screen called "Top 25 Most Played" that tells me which songs I've listened to most frequently since I installed it. Here are the tracks at the top of the current chart:- Erin McKeown, "A Better Wife"
- Frank Sinatra, "Witchcraft"
- George Strait, "I've Come to Expect It from You"
- Toto, "99"
- Marvin Gaye, "Got to Give It Up"
- Ahmad Jamal, "New Rhumba"
- Couperin, "The Mysterious Barricades" (played on guitar by Göran Söllscher)
- Jo Stafford, "Early Autumn"
- Suzanne Vega, "Caramel"
- Zero 7, "In the Waiting Line" (from the Garden State soundtrack, of course)
For the past couple of days, though, I've been too tired to decide what to play, so I've been putting iTunes on "shuffle play" and allowing it to supplant my free will. At the moment it's serving up Count Basie's "Jive at Five," immediately preceded by Elvis Presley's "Jailhouse Rock."
Go figure.
