Sort by song title – first and last

First: “A.D. – B.C.” – Ken Tamplin/Shout. This is a rarely listened to tune from an artist that I enjoyed a great deal in the 90′s.

Last: “99 Luftballons” – Nena (Greatest Hits of the 80′s vol. 4.) Now I can’t get this out of my head.

Sort by time – shortest and longest

Shortest: 0.20, “Pad Tai” – One Bad Pig (I Scream Sunday.) There were several shorter “songs” that were really more like musical interludes. This was the first that could classify as a true song.

Longest: 14.23, “Free Bird (Live)” – Lynyrd Skynyrd (All-Time Greatest Hits.) I had a Staind song that was 21 minutes long but it’s almost all dead air so I recalibrate it to end at 4 minutes, therefore I didn’t count it here.

Sort by Album – first and last

First: Audios – The Greatest Hits, Audio Adrenaline. I have all the albums except maybe one greatest hits from Audio A. This one had an unreleased song so I felt compelled to buy it.

Last: 7even Year Itch: Collective Soul Greatest Hits 1994-2001. I have all the Collective Soul albums too, again this one had an unreleased song. This was before the days of iTunes where you could purchase only one song from an album.

Sort by Artist – first and last

First: A-Ha, “The Living Daylights” from the James Bond Theme Song Soundtrack.

Last: The 5th Dimension, “Aquarius/Let The Sunshine In”, from the Forest Gump Soundtrack. Odd how the previous question both were greatest hits, and this one both are soundtracks.

Top five played songs

109 – “Get Me Bodied”, Beyonce. I only have two Beyonce songs. I love this one the most.

103 – “I’m Shipping Up To Boston”, Dropkick Murphys. The only song by this band, again, a really awesome song.

95 – “Just Like Paradise”, David Lee Roth. And again, the only song I own from DLR. This was popular my Junior year in high school. Always brings back memories.

95 – “Follow You Home”, Nickelback. I love Nickelback.

91 – “Animals”, Nickelback. No really, they rock.

Find the following words. How many songs show up?

Sex: 1 song. I found this comforting.

Death: 13 songs. I found this disturbing until I realized that all but two of them come from a P.O.D. (Payable On Death) album.

Love: 340 songs. I found this enlightening.

You: 654 songs. Who me? Or you?

Home: 68 song. This includes 22 songs from Collective Soul’s “Home” album and 14 from Michael W. Smith’s “I’ll Lead You Home” album.

Boy: 229 songs. This includes 55 Beach Boys songs, 126 Newsboys songs, 18 Pet Shop Boys songs. Take those away and I got 30 songs about boys.

Girl: 41 songs. That’s better.
