Not a single song over 5 minutes.

Rubbish.

[Waris]

From end of May, foobar only, mostly on shuffle


I like most songs in my library but sometimes I skip from those I don't want to listen to atm

@Alias: Because songs need to be over 5 mins to be any good?

I probably worded that wrong, I more meant that while some people don't have the attention span for long songs, I don't have too much taste for short songs (there are some exceptions though, such as quite a few Beatles songs) as almost anything fit in under 3 minutes just feels really crammed and the music doesn't have enough room to breathe.

Listen more grindcore.

Something in these words hit a note of truth in me. That said, most songs over 7 minutes feel a little overstretched and those I have as such I skip through the first minute of buildup etc. Here's info from my Last.fm account:


P.S scrobbling seems a bit off so this list shouldn't be 100% representative of what I listen to.

Really depends on the song. I have plenty over 10mins, some over 20 and none seem stretched.

[Ixonoclast]

Oh my god, Scope, you have wrongly tagged tracks in your list! Argh! Sorry, I'm completely autistic about wrong mp3 tags.

As for the length of tracks... It doesn't matter. If a track feels too long or too short, then the artist sucks at songwriting.

only the last 6 months.
overall most played song is "Electric eye" by judas priest with a whopping 124 plays

Edit: Also i realised that theres not a single Iron maiden song in there oO (might be because i own most stuff and dont listen to it on last fm )

This:

[Waris]

Wait the duck up. You bought a kickass HP to listen to that most of the time?

[ΓΛPTΘΓ]

Oh.... wait.

Did I?

Not really, you know how some random tune can stick to your mind for hours and you can't turn it off even its only 128kbps D:

[Ixonoclast]

Far superior to ΓΛPΤΘΓ's one.



TANGO DOWN!

Keep on the topic of "Your most listened" please, less random videos

Thanks.

Drastic change since my first post, which occured as my iTunes got wiped. :|

]: Lilith wanted to posted here, but recently a file from system32 disappeared on her computer and she ended up losing all her files..
If this thread is still alive in a few weeks, she'll post.
She currently has 2.39 GB of music. Since her music has all disappeared about 6 times since acquiring her current computer, she's taken to using her mp3 player as more of a storage device for her music, so she can recover it whenever something bad happens. Sadly, the mp3 player only can contain 1 GB of music. |:!
Constantly having to cut down the music her library contains has proven to be rather frustrating.

Oh wow, Nidmeister... Deftones. That brings back memories to middleschool.

Now what did he say about ''room to breathe''

@lil, if you only have like 2,5 GB of music, just burn it to a DVD.

Deftones are awesome, I just keep failing at getting Ion Cannon well into them
I'm going to see them at Reading Festival at the end of August (Pronounced red-ing, not reading, people keep making that mistake )

[Waris]

Around the Fur is one of those albums that I never get around to listen to for a long time.

Please point them out And I know some are in need of fixing but that's what happens when you don't rip music CDs.

Check your Lord of the Rings soundtrack...

Time to resurrect a thread I found rather interesting.

My tastes have diversified a fair bit since last time, however I recently got hold of 320kbps versions of Dream theater + Symphony X's discographys, so its a prog phase atm. I also really liked some songs on lostprophets new album as you can see. This is my list since early January.
