All Time Greats!

This is just a random post...about a lil something that i did a few days ago...

I have 952 songs in my whole music library...and they are somewhat random in terms of language and genre...there isn't much pattern that can be deduced by analysing them except that:

1- Sorted by artist, i have almost all Jay Chou songs, and quite good collection of Siti Nurhaliza songs too.

2- Sorted by date added, each time i add songs, the songs will have a particular theme. For example, one night i thought of the movie top gun, hence i downloaded some songs, and they all are from top gun. another night i am in the techno mood, and all songs downloaded are hence techno.

Anyway, a long long time ago, i decided to create playlists, and there was this playlist i created called 'All Time Greats', where i planned to put in only the greatests songs by my standards.

For a long long time that list was empty as i was lazy to browse my playlist one by one to evaluate their 'All Time Great'-worthiness.

one day last week, i stood up and said to myself, i'm gonna do it. not that i literally stood up or said anything, but, something like that lah...so i sorted my library via artist, and started listening one by one...evaluating, and then putting them in the list if they are worth it.

it was a long and arduous night...but finally i managed to settle the list once and for all...then i checked the list...419 songs...out of 952...that's FRIGGIN ALMOST HALF of the whole library! might as well just play my whole library rite? i would average about 1 click of the 'next' button per song i play....that's WAYYYYY easier than setting up that list...and plus...kononnye the list would be 'exclusive'...well, if half of my library made it into the list...exclusive lahhh sangat =P

but hey, since i set up the list, and play them regularly, i find that everytime i play em i will feel happy...coz its back to back songs that i like of all times...

for example, just now was 'Ya Zi' by Tarcy Su (this is a hit song during primary school years), then 'End of the road' by Boys 2 Men, then Tui Hou by Jay Chou, then Broken by Seether, then Feng by Jay Chou, then Dance Floor Anthem by Good Charlotte, then Wonderwall by Oasis, and now its Ghetto Superstar by Mya & Wyclef Jean....not bad for a random play aight?well, definitely very good for me =)



i'm happy...for the moment at least =)
