Well, here I am on the last day of my 30 day Desert Island Music Challenge. I made my list, and for the last 30 days I have only listened to the music of 10 CD's I chose (see earlier posts). I will admit, over the last few days there are a few songs, and albums I have started to tire of. Ironically, the ones that are wearing on my most are the two rock icons, Pink Floyd's Dark Side of The Moon, and the Who's Quadrophenia. Don't get me wrong, I am still huge fans of these albums, but Pink Floyd especially, and the Who also are very hard to listen to on shuffle (which is how I usually do my music) since a lot of the songs on these 2 albums flow into each other...makes for a choppy shuffle.
Also as we go into day 30, I look at my 25 Most Played playlist (which iTunes automatically formulates based on what songs play) 21 of the songs on this year's list are now from my desert island list. What is interesting is that only 9 of the 10 albums show up in the top 25, which is strange because I thought the shuffle was giving everything fair play. But somehow Simon & Garfunkel is missing from top 25...So when I leave for work in a few minutes, I will make sure they get some play.
Talk to you soon with what I listen to tomorrow when I'm "off the island".
