That title says it all, really. I saw it somewhere on last.fm (for the life of me, I can't remember where), and since I'm a bit bored, I thought I'd make this my first journal entry. *trumpets!* Oh, and before I begin: these are of course the charts of today, they might change over time. I haven't had this profile for very long, and the charts are also a bit off, because I've been on a holiday and moved, like, four times... Bear with me.



1. What's your favorite song by 15?
Snow Patrol - I hate that I have to make a choice here... I guess I'll go with Run, because that's the song that got me into them in the first place, and even though I've listened to it a gazillion times, it can still make me cry if I'd let it.

2. How did you get into 20?
Maxïmo Park - I'd heard the bandname buzz around for a while before I actually heard one of their songs. It was Our Velocity, I think, and I was addicted straight away!

3. Who is your favorite member in 1?
Acda en De Munnik - Well, there are only two :p. I guess I'll go with Thomas Acda, because he also does some acting on the side, and he has impeccable comic timing. Plus, a rather thick Amsterdam accent, which I love.

4. Whats your favorite lyric bit by 29?
Kristin Chenoweth -
Taylor the latte boy!
Bring me java, bring me joy!

5. Have you ever seen 22 live?
Klaxons - Sadly, no. I'd love to though.

6. What's your favorite album from 10?
Dr Horrible cast - Technically, there isn't one (yet!).

7. Do you own any merchandise from 3?
Kate Nash - No. I do love the 'Kate Nash? What do I know? I'm a mouse' T-shirts, but they're way too big for me.

8. What is a good memory you have of 7?
David Gray - Oh, so many! I've seen him live twice and he was just brilliant, I love him so much. Also, cycling home in the snow to Disappearing World. Magic, I tell you, magic!

9. Is there a member of the same age as you in 2?
Sondre Lerche - Nope.

10. When did you first get into 8?
Regina Spektor - A friend of mine was really into the song Samson around the time that Soviet Kitsch had just come out, and then I got curious. so I downloaded (God have mercy on my soul) the 11:11 album, and I fell in love straight away.

11. Who likes 4 along with you?
Jason Mraz - I'm almost embarassed he's that high up, but I just love singing along to his songs, especially when I'm cooking or doing the dishes, they're so damn catchy! Anyway, a former classmate, Laurie, is absolutely obsessed with him.

12. Which song did you first hear from 16?
Interpol - Slow Hands. A friend said I had to hear 'this hot new thing'.

13. What song made you fall in love with 5?
Coldplay - Yellow. Good times...

14. Which song do you not like by 18?
Carla Bruni - I must admit, I don't listen to all of her songs, just the ones that caught my fancy straight off the bat, like Raphaël, so I don't really have an answer to this one.

15. Why do you like 14's songs?
Franz Ferdinand - They're catchy, the lyrics can be both silly and serious.. Pure entertainment. Plus, they were my first step into the world of British guitar bands (well, okay, after Coldplay). I'll owe them that forever.

16. Where did you first hear 6?
Gomez - On a holiday a veeeery long time ago. It must've been around the time that Bring It On had just come out, because my brother had just seen them at Pinkpop, bought the CD, and insisted on it being played constantly, along with I Am Kloot. Annoying little sister as I am/was, I kept whining that his music was boring and I wanted to listen to Robbie Williams (in my defense, I was young, and Sing When You're Winning is a pretty good album, so shut up). Of course, I found myself falling in love with Gomez (and I Am Kloot, come to that) despite all my struggling.

17. How long was 19 a singer before you liked them?
The Postal Service - Oh boy... I honestly can't say in what year I started to really get into them... I guess about two years ago, which would be 2006. Last.fm informs me that The Postal Service started out in 2001, so that would make it five years. Wow. That's... Slightly embarrassing.

18. Does 13 have a song that gives you a bad memory?
Muse - Hysteria. Mind you, it's not their fault, I love that song to bits. Anyway, I was going to see them live at Pinkpop a couple of years ago, and on the day it was finally going to happen, my parents suddenly said I was too young to stay at the festival that late when there was school the next day (I think I was 15/16). So as I walked out of there, they started playing Hysteria on the main stage. I was angry and sad and INCREDIBLY FRUSTRATED. Haunts me till this very day, especially since I missed them again two years later. But that's a story for another time.

19. When did you get into 17?
Unkle Bob - Quite recently, someone on Livejournal recommended it to me.

20. How long have you been into 9?
Death Cab for Cutie - I started listening to their music when A Lack Of Color was used on The OC, then I kind of lost track of them for a while, and then, a few months before Narrow Stairs came out, I fell in love all over again.

21. If 11 had a concert 300 miles away, would you drive there to see them?
Turin Brakes - If I had the means and the time... Absolutely. I love Turin Brakes, but they never seem to leave the UK, if they go on tour at all.

22. How many CDs do you own of 12?
Kaiser Chiefs - Two. Because they only have two.

23. Does 21 have a song that makes you cry?
The Weepies (oh, the irony!) - The World Spins Madly On, but a lot of their songs are kind of melancholy.

24. Does 27 have a song that makes you happy?
Marike Jager - Yes! Hide And Seek and Fling Flack Toodah! Insane in the brain, they think it should be treated! Well, I don't think so, doctor, I'm just hard to understand!

25. Does 23 have a song that makes you smile?
Damien Rice - Amie. It's sort of nostalgic, I love it.

26. What's the last song you've listened to from 28?
The Wombats - Let's Dance To Joy Division

27. Is there a song by 32 that you've listened to more than 30 times?
Psapp - I think I must've listened to Hi or About Fun more than 30 times, even though that wasn't scrobbled.

28. What is a song from 50 that you've only listened to once?
Ben's Brother - ...Any song, except for Stuttering (Kiss Me Again)/Kiss Me Again (Stuttering). Seriously, which one is the right title?

29. Is there a song you are sick of hearing by 24?
The Beatles - Let It Be. I used to be in this choir, and we rehearsed it over and over and over, until I got sick of it. As I got older, I joined another choir... And they sang it too. I even had a solo. Sigh.

30. What song got you into 40?
Ghosts - Stay The Nights.

31. What is your favorite single by 25?
The Wombats - Let's Dance To Joy Division. I don't really like any of their other singles... I know I'm alone on this one, but I just like this song and Tales Of Girls, Boys And Marsupials. Please don't shoot me.

32. If 49 hated you, what would you do?
The Shins - Wonder what the hell I did wrong, they seem pretty peaceful to me.

33. What would you say if 42 or one of the members from 42 asked you out?
Editors - Well... There's a bit of an age gap.

34. Would you care if 41 had a boyfriend/girlfriend?
Ghosts - Couldn't care less, really.

35. Who has the best voice in 46?
Joshua Radin - ...Yeah.

36. Do you think 26 is/are good looking?
Air Traffic - *googles* Yeah, I guess they're alright.

37. How many times have you listened to your favorite song by 36?
Maroon 5 - Oh boy. I don't really have a favourite song, but I used to really be into them a few years ago, I had that CD playing on a loop at my house for months.

38. How many CDs do you own of 30?
Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly - Two. Downloaded, sadly, but I will make up for that soon.

39. Is there a song from 38 that makes you mad?
Patrick Watson - ...No.

40. Which member from 31 do you want to see go solo? If 31 is only one artist, what would you do if they joined a group?
The Last Shadow Puppets - I love everything Alex Turner's done so far, so who knows... But I like both Arctic Monkeys and The Last Shadow Puppets, so I can't say I crave for him to go solo or anything.

41. What does your favorite song from 48 remind you of?
Amy Winehouse - Back To Black. Well, of a mistress whose lover has gone back to his wife/girlfriend and is miserable because of that. Not really original, but, you know.

42. Did you hate 43 at first?
Arctic Monkeys - Nope. The first song I heard was A Certain Romance, and I quite liked it, so I decided to check out the rest of the album.

43. Does your best friend also listen to 33?
Air - I don't strictly have one best friend, but no, I think I'm alone on this one. Can't say I mind, though.

44. Do you think your parents would like 37?
Eric Hutchinson - My father would quite like him and whistle along from the kitchen, probably, but I think my mother would think he's a bit boring and poppy.

45. Does 47 have a song that makes you want to dance?
Dan Le Sac vs Scroobius Pip - Not really dance, but more or less bob along, sure.

46. Have you ever seen 34 in person?
Justice - Nope.

47. Do you like 44's name?
I Am Kloot - I don't know what 'kloot' means in English, but in Dutch it means 'balls', or, technically, 'ball'. I don't know if it's intended, but it makes me giggle like a twelve year old.

48. Is there someone in 45 that you want to go out with?
Radiohead - They're brilliant and all, but... No.

49. Do you know anyone that hates 39?
Belle and Sebastian - Not personally, no, but I'm pretty sure there are a lot of B&S haters out there.

50. Have you ever danced to a song from 35?
Solo - No, their songs aren't exactly fit for dancing.

it's 6 months since one of the most irritating trolls has been banned. and it seems now that epic lulz are gone with the new lastfm so let's all have a moment of silence in rememberance of the great persona he was!

I miss you MrWInczakos :(

ps old lastfm sucked.

ps2 new last fm sucks.

ps3 will there be another mighty troll just like him and R.I.P. Octember (also known as Strictly Diesel) and Pagan_Winter (also known as - too many names, cant remember them all)? who knows. maybe someday.

Saw a couple other people doing this and thought I'd give it a try (I'm doing by top 50, rather than 25, b/c I am just that cool)...

I don't watch a lot of commercials, since almost everything I watch (aside from sports) is from my DVR, but even with the small amount of commercial breaks I tolerate, I've noticed that a lot of the music I listen to has been showing up in advertisements. Some music snobs look at the increased presence of indie rock in commercials with disdain, rejecting artists that choose to allow their music to be used in ads as sell outs. To those people, I can only say: grow up.

We live in an age where many music fans get their music without paying for it, where radio playlists have been reduced to about 25 songs a day, and the channels on television that used to play music videos now play reality television instead. So if a band feels the need to get a guaranteed pay day for their efforts, while taking a shot at exposing their music to a wider audience, who are we to begrudge them (of course, there are some that can't enjoy any music that is exposed to wider audiences, and to them I repeat: grow up).

So inspired, I decided to make a playlist of songs in my collection that have appeared of late in commercials. I call this mix "Commercial Songs that Aren't Necessarily Commercial". Click on the link to see the full track list, along with clips of the commercials in which they appear.

17. The Yeah Yeah Yeah Song - The Flaming Lips

18. The Sun is Out - The Apples in Stereo
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/v/TTdWV3HLk4g&hl=en&fs=1[/youtube]

Okay... I'll admit The Flaming Lips one is a bit embarrassing (Kraft? Really?), and we're all sick of the UPS ads, but the rest are solid uses of music in decently crafted advertisements. I'd say the Pink Moon Volkswagon ad is the best in terms of perfectly melding the mood of the song with the mood of the commercial. I'm also not too proud to say that I was introduced to some of these songs because of these commercials, so mission accomplished (well, at least for the ones I actually spent money on to listen to, that is).

Also, this list is by no means definitive. I left some songs out in order for the playlist to fit onto one CD (which I have burned to give to a friend, which was the other impetus for this list). I already have some songs waiting for a sequel playlist that should probably be ready in another two Apple product launches.
