A Trivia List

A list of the 10 most listened to songs on my iPod

1. Dance, Dance - Fallout Boy
2. Sugar, We're going Down - Fallout Boy
3. Where is the Love - Black Eyed Peas
4. Talk - Coldplay
5. Fix You - Coldplay
6. Ayesha - Death in Vegas
7. Closer - Nine Inch Nails
8. Hard to Handle - Black Crowes
9. Pride - U2
10. Little by Little - Oasis

Im loving the Falloutboy album at the moment (From Under the Cork Tree). Im quite surprised there aren't more u2 songs in there, and although Oasis are a little bit hit and miss for me, I love 'Little by Little' and 'Half the World Away'

Maybe some readers (I call them Luddites) don't know what an iPod is, so here is a picture of one.


An iPod is basically a portable music player, that is manufactured by apple and has won many design awards. There are many different 'storage sizes'. My own iPod is a 3rd Generation 15GB which will allow me to store around 3,500 tunes on there. Frankly I don't have 3,500 songs, but Im approaching that limit. However, if I was to listen to them end to end, it would take me over 8 days to get through them all (although the Lou Reed section would be quite difficult to get thru!). I understand you can get 60GB (that gigabytes, Evo) versions, but surely no one has that much music? :-)

Are you serious??

Thanks for the update.

I may have a look at them. How do they read your CDs though?

You can't beat the crackling sound of vinyl though. Am I right?

You see the round bit at the front evo? You press a button and your cd's go into a slot there :-)

And these things are so sophisticated these days (well it is the digital age, after all) there is a setting you can select to make your cd's sound just like vinyl
