Cá estou, quase 10 meses depois do último post em que fiz uma avaliação dos meus... como dizer... costumes musicais? Enfim, pego-me novamente em situação parecida.

Apesar de não ter mencionado da última vez, continuo sem um fone de ouvido próprio e portátil o suficiente para poder conviver com a música tanto quanto gostaria. Não preciso mais me preocupar em levar um "kit salva-ouvidos" para a faculdade, visto que tenho passado pouco tempo lá, mas ela bem que encontrou um substituto adequado.

Lá no estágio, meu pc não acessa o last.fm... por algum problema de rede que não me interesso em descobrir. Imagina a cena:
"Chefe, eu já tô ouvindo música aqui há um tempão. E nada de dar scrobble... o que tá havendo?"
e ele: "Acho que se você inventar de trabalhar, fica tudo certo."

Bem... de fato há um lado positivo, pois posso escutar Xuxa e Molejo sem ser julgado erroneamente. Mas eu diria que minhas charts estariam um pouco diferentes se eu pudesse dar scrobble de lá.

O que aconteceria?
Joss Stone e Radiohead provavelmente subiriam alguns degraus na minha escada da fama.
Travis, Billie Holiday, Creedence Clearwater Revival e os artistas da trilha de Cowboy Bebop, como 菅野よう子 faria alguma aparição decente por essas bandas.

Pois é... dessa vez eu optei por não levar as minhas próprias músicas. Assumo que não por uma razão muito heróica, mas mais por preguiça de enfiar tudo num pendrive e levar pra lá. Mas vamos ao que interessa:

Top Artists até então:
1)Regina Spektor
2)Belle and Sebastian
3)Pizzicato Five
4)Radiohead
5)Arctic Monkeys

Acho que vale explicitar 2 espécies de mérito aí:
- À persistência: A Regininha, Pizzicato e B&S... Vocês continuaram no páreo. Talvez a liderança seja apenas resultado da bagagem prévia, mas ainda tão aí, né? xD
- Aos newcomers: Radiohead merece o meu respeito por ter chegado só em Agosto, como quem não quer nada, passar meses levando uma pisa de Regininha e Belle e agora estar aí, como candidato ao topo e liderando minhas charts semanais. Arctic Monkeys, oi o/

Top Tracks até agora:
1)All I Need
2)Samson
3)Women's Realm
4)Get Me Away From Here, I'm Dying
5)Mushaboom

Engraçado, Samson manteve a segunda posição. O resto mudou completamente. Mas posso dizer que hoje reflete bem mais a realidade. Women's Realm é a minha música preferida de B&S, falo sem medo xD As 2 primeiras têm um significado extra-musical pra mim :) E posso dizer que Feist promete. Promete desbancar muita gente aí, hehehehe

Unfarely Placed Track:
Busy Doing Nothing

Não vi essa música nas primeiras posições... Pensei: "a coitada, não saiu na primeira página... deve estar em logo abaixo.". Ingenuidade minha. O diabo da música estava em 109º!!! É absurdo! Outrageous! Love Is All assusta de tão foda e essa música é pra balançar a cabeça e gritar junto com Josephine. O clip dela é péssimo, mas é o jeito mais rápido de vocês ouvirem a bichinha: Busy Doing Nothing

Ficou enorme isso aqui! Mas valeu a pena =D

I went to my dashboard and was pleasantly surprised to find all 15 of my friends just listened spots occupied with "just listened". First time I'd seen this in the year that I've been here!

They have been chosen as contestants in my 10 Tracks contest.

Fear not there is no physical activity on your part involved. All you have to do is hope the first ten songs played on your radio score enough points to achieve the highest score.

Artists will be rated based on my top 500 artists as such:

Artists that appear between 101 and 200 will be given 7 points
Artists that appear between 201 and 300 will be given 5 points
Artists that appear between 301 and 400 will be given 3 points
Artists that appear between 401 and 500 will be given 1 points

Artists that do not appear on my list will be disqualified and not eligible for any points whatsoever!
However, I have captured a list of bonus artists/song (by any artist) that will give a total of 20 bonus points if the artists/song (by any artist) happens to play during the first 10 songs played.

An image with your last.fm name and your bonus artists/song (by any artist) (along with the bonus artists/song (by any artist) of your competitors) appears below. If the song in the list below is played by the artist listed below you just bagged 40 points!
