Comment:

By far my most superficial, idiotic mix to date, this is quite literally a list, via the song titles, of things I love. Like I love walking barefoot (in grass), I love sea shanties, I love playing the drums, I love lists, I love silence, etc. I compiled this a year ago or so, and just recently my computer basically imploded from some virus or whatever, so now that I'm re-building everything, it seems that I have no way of transferring my old iPod data to my new version of iTunes on the new computer. I know, there are many ways, but apparently none in this scenario that allow me to keep all the data (star ratings, playcounts, playlists), despite my efforts. I'm thankful that I at least have my library of songs backed up, but it's depressing to think I have to start all over with the statistics, which I love so dearly....oh well.

Anyway, in the meantime, I still have all my old data on the iPod itself, so I thought I'd rummage through my hundreds of playlists and maybe put together a few that I'd only conceptualized but never actually recorded, before I eventually delete the entire thing. This is the lamest one I could find, so I'll start here.

It seemed cute enough when I first thought of it, but the end result, based on what titles worked (I had to find basically noun-based names to keep the idea direct and easy to understand), is a bit sophomoric - "wow, you like Mickey Mouse, pirate ships, chocolate? What a fascinating, mature fellow!" :( But what the hell, I already made it, and the songs are fun to listen to, and it's always refreshing to come up with a new blending of the same old music. The End.
