Meme, as prompted by christiffer:

Put all your mp3s into Winamp/whatever and randomise them. Tell me the next 20 tracks you get. No cheating - be honest :)

Mine, from 4,779 tracks in my iTunes collection. I'm actually pretty happy with this as a representative sample of my music:

Plan 9 Channel 7	The Damned
Diddy Wah Diddy	Lydia Lunch
We Hate the Kids	The Indelicates
On The Turning Away	Pink Floyd
Plague of Ghosts: i) Old Haunts	Fish
I Feel Alright	The Damned
Krupa	Apollo 440
Sleep Together	Garbage
Chelsea Monday	Marillion
Truth, Rest Your Head	Gene
The hut of Baba Yaga (2)	Emerson, Lake & Palmer
Who The Fuck?	PJ Harvey
G-I Blue	Lydia Lunch
America Is Not the World	Morrissey
Oxygen	JJ72
Cindy Of A Thousand Lives	Billy Bragg
Lenny	Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble
Red Alert	Lydia Lunch
Torches	Webb Sisters
Mourning Sun	Fields of the Nephilim

PS: I'd also like to say how much I love Apple software; I just guessed that if you highlighted the tracks on the screen in iTunes and and copied and pasted into TextEdit, you'd end up with all the details of the tracks as text. And it worked. Smart.

ree_ and I saw PJ Harvey Live at the manchester festival a month or so ago. Absolutely superb!

I only had one real "odd one out", which was the Webb Sisters track -- one of those iTunes "free downloads of the week" and I hadn't even listened to it when I posted the list!

I'm always amazed at how little of other people's music I've even heard of, let alone heard, but at least with yours I've heard of the Deftones, Johnny Cash, Diana Krall and Phish :) Some good track titles there, too; the kind of names that would probably predispose me to liking the music *grin*
