Open iTunes/iPod or Windows Media Player to answer the following. Go to your library. Answer, no matter how embarrassing it is.

Longest track: Greg Maguire's 'Son of a Witch', first half (7:30:11)

Top Five Most Played tracks (each of these has played less than 20 times - there are also a couple of hundred tracks that claim to never have been played at all, which I think is due to the way I sync my iPod):

1. Ben Lee - Whatever It Is
2. Bright Eyes - Landlocked Blues
3. Mates of State - Girls Singing
4. Neko Case - Set Out Running
5. Rainer Maria - Situation : Relation

And, in the "proof that random is, kinda" (I know it's not actually, and the iTunes random selection function is at once more simple and more complex than true randomness) camp...
First track that comes up on Shuffle: Rainer Maria - Feeling Neglected?
Last track that comes up on shuffle: Rainer Maria - There Will Be No Night

That was fun.

Egads! You have that "Hollaback Girl" song on your music collection! Dead to me! :)

I love seeing what other people are listening to.

Yah, I know, but I like it! I need more music... but I have only had my computer for 3 months!

Pshaw... I've only had mine since late July, and I have almost 3X the music on it. Course, that's actually now a small fragment of my CD collection. Hee.
