Whats on My Shuffle?
In Which GN tries not to think about when he might get a job offer (maybe today?),
I received an Apple Shuffle for Christmas. It isn't as famous as the iPod but it's essentially the same thing only in a much smaller package and without a screen. Mine will hold a little over 100 songs - more than enough for me.
Over the weekend, I was browsing the Apple iTunes store (DRM is un-american and I hate it but I'm a music junkie.) and I came across the "playlists" of various celebrities. It's interesting to read although I suspect the songs listed aren't really on the celebrity's playlists. Instead, they are songs the celebrity wants people to think are on their playlist.
Since I've been trying really hard not to think about the fact that I might get a nice job offer today or tomorrow, I thought I would share what's on my Shuffle at the moment. (Yes, this is really what's on my shuffle.)

What's on my shuffle?
- Beverly Hills, Weezer - These guys are geeks, but they're geeks who rock.
- Let's Roll, Neil Young - IMHO the best 9/11 inspired song of them all. From the lyrics for the song,
No one has the answer but one thing is true
You got to turn on evil when it's coming after you
You gotta face it down and when it tries to hide
We gotta go in after it and never be denied. - Some other Neil Young stuff, mostly from the CD, Harvest Moon.
- Various Jars of Clay songs including,
Blind, Like A Child,
I'm Alright and Faith Enough. - Molly Hatchet, Flirtin' With Disaster - Reminds me of high school and it's a great rock and roll song.
- Jack Johnson, Waiting, Hoping, Wishing - I never heard of this guy before I saw his video but I've downloaded a couple of his songs and I'm thinking of buying the whole cd. The video for this song is one of the coolest I've seen in a long time and it's here
- Various Styx songs including,
Blue Collar Man, Renegade, Mr Roboto, Don't Let It End, and Too Much Time on My Hands - Various U2 songs including, 4th of July, Homecoming, Where the Streets Have No Name, Mysterious Ways, and Numb
- Various Tom Petty songs including,
American Girl, Running Down A Dream, Free Fallin', All The Wrong Reasons, Don't Come Around Here, and Honeybee - Various Switchfoot songs including, Company Car, There's Gotta Be Something More, More Than Just Okay, and a single released off their upcoming album due to be released in September. The single is called Stars and I like it.
