if I don't feel like I'm in the mood I'll skip a track. I'm all for totally random as I know my albums much too well.
Know the feeling although my collection is paltry... about 1500 songs
I have 6 discs of beethoven on mine, which are too often skipped but sometimes its nice to hear the pastoral symphony then the opening riff to walk.
Id reccommend Duke Special if you're looking for something different. Irish Folk I forst heard on Jools holland.
My perfect playlist has
one of the AC/DC greats - albums high voltage -> back in black
Today it was the version of whole lotta rosie from if you want blood, but it will be something else tommorrow.
Lets build a home (live) - The White Stripes - this one i stole from a youtube vid of them on some chat show
You really got me - the kinks - the kinks
I wanna be your dog - The Stooges - The Stooges
Thriller - MJ - Thriller, I have the no 1s album
Help! - The Beatles - I got it on the best of 62-66 double album
Ziggy Stardust and the spiders from mars - David Bowie - The rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the spiders from mars
All these things that I've Done - The killers - Hot Fuss
Citizen erased - Muse - The origin of Symmetry
Because I want you to - Placebo
And some smiths to finish - what difference does it make, although I'd have the queen is dead over their debut any day.
