I've had my iPod for years, but I never realized that it keeps track of your 25 most played tracks. I made this discovery earlier today. I don't have a list of all-time favorite songs, but this was my top five according to my iPod. Feel free to share your whole top 25 most played if you'd like. I'm not even sure why I'm even making this thread, other than it's 4am and I cannot sleep!!

Mine are all Beatles tunes:

1-Eight Days A Week
2-A Hard Days Night
3-Help
4-I Me Mine
5-She Loves You

Well, you can download iTunes quickly and then it should recognize your iPod anyway, and you theoretically should be able to view the details of your songs on your iPod.

You'll probably like #2 if you like #1 and #5. You probably won't like numbers 3 and 4 (significantly heavier).

I got a new iPod so I have a new top 5, but these are interesting results

Swinging From the Castles 3:04 Awolnation
M1 A1 4:01 Gorillaz
5/4 2:42 Gorillaz
MF 3:21 Awolnation
Kids With Guns 3:46 Gorillaz

I can see Swinging from the Castcles, MF and M1A1, but 5/4 and Kids with Guns seem sort of random.

1. Cannabis - Serge Gainsbourg
2. Less Sucettes - Serge Gainsbourg
3. Friend is a four letter word - Cake
4. Arco Arena - Cake
5. 3's and 7's - Queens of the Stone Age

I really am not a huge fan of Neon Bible... I think Funeral and The Suburbs are by far superior albums.
