The iPod Shuffle
Not an "iPod Shuffle." My iPod in
shuffle mode.
I have an iPod. On this iPod I have music. And I
must say it is a rather ecclectic collection of music. I have Ray Charles, and
the Chemical Brothers. Allman Brothers and Eminem. And a couple movie
soundtracks...but not only music. I also have a few podcasts and some sound
effects that somehow made it off a sound effects playlist on my Powermac (the
one I use for editing).
Sam has an iPod. On it she has music. That's it. Music. And she has this handy feature called SHUFFLE SONGS that will just randomly play a song on your iPod, ignoring playlists. So it is like listening to a radio station with all your favorite songs. I have always been jealous of that function of her iPod. But she has the iPod mini and I have a full sized 3rd generation iPod...the one with all the buttons. I thought it was a feature of the mini
I recently updated the software on my iPod and discovered the SHUFFLE SONG feature has been added. SWEET! Now I too can have my own personal radio station...K-SHANE! I navigate to that option and press the select button.
Let the wonderment that is the stuff on my iPod BEGIN! Here is what my iPod played...in order:
1) The Countries of the World sung by Yakko of the Animaniacs
2) Statesboro - Allman Brothers
3) Tension - Requiem for a Dream soundtrack
4) Jaime's Cryin' - Van Halen
5) KCRW Movie Review podcast
6) Complicated - Avril Lavigne
7) Chapter 10 of ANGELS AND DEMONS by Dan Brown, the guy who wrote THE DAVINCI CODE. Oh, yeah, I have books on tape too.
8) The House is a Rockin' - Stevie Ray Vaughn
9) Homeless - Paul Simon
10) Airports I - Brian Eno
11) The Adventures of Dr. Floyd - Podcast...a very fun one too.
12) The Finale music from THE LORD OF THE RINGS-RETURN OF THE KING
13) The Gambler - Kenny Rogers. I forgot I even had this. Not in any playlist. This was a pleasant surprise.
14) St. Jimmy (live in England) - Green Day
Wow...OK...that was...interesting.
