Ipod survey for the really bored people
..like myself.

Open iTunes. Go to your library. Answer, no matter how embarrassing it is!

Number of Songs: 383 (puny, i know. But I've only had my ipod since last Christmas)

Sort by song-
First Song: "(Don't Go Back To) Rockville"-R.E.M.
Last Song: "Your Heart is an Empty Room"-Death Cab for Cutie

Sort by time-
Shortest song: "Fell in Love With a Girl"-The White Stripes (1:54)
Longest Song: "Down by the River"-Neil Young (9:20)

Sort by artist-
First Artist: 'NSYNC *cringes*
Last Artist: (The) White Stripes

Sort by album-
First Album: "#1's"-Destiny's Child (should I cringe or not?)
Last Album: "Young for Eternity"-The Subways

Search the key word and see how many songs appear:
- sex: 0
- death: 15, but they're all Death Cab for Cutie, though.
- love: 14
- you: 45
- me: 98
- drugs: 0
- hate: 1

Do The Shuffle!
Shuffle your library and list the first five songs. No padding your playlist you hipster, you. Be honest!!

1. "Sick Cycle Carousel"-Lifehouse
2. "Like a Rolling Stone"-Bob Dylan
3. "Letter Never Sent"-R.E.M.
4. "What I Say and What I Mean"-The Like
5. "Kissing the Lipless"-The Shins

Yay for surveys!! =)
