10 Songs I Didn't Choose

Following Steven's Notebook, this is much more fun than a chain letter...

Step 1: Open your mp3 player. (Musicmatch was easier than my empeg player to retrieve a list)
Step 2: Put all of your music on random.
Step 3: List the first ten songs it plays, no matter how embarrassing.

Not only 10 songs I didn't choose; 10 songs I wouldn't choose. Not because they're all songs I don't like, that would be a pretty unfortunate snippet of my music collection. Just not songs that I'd have thought "ooh, yes, let's include that" . Just for fun, I'll find each of them on my Empeg and that'll tell me how many times it's played them, how many times I've skipped the track, and when it was last played.

1. Who Got The Camera - Ice Cube (played: 3, skipped: 0, last played: 7/7/2002)
2. Dream On Dreamer - Brand New Heavies (played: 3, skipped: 0, last played: 1/6/2002)
3. Sweet Love - Mongo Santamaria (played: 0, skipped: 0, last played: Never)
4. In The Midnight Hour - The Commitments (played: 2, skipped: 0, last played: 2/7/2002)
5. Accelerator - Quest (played: 1, skipped: 0, last played: 14/6/2002)
6. Nails In My Feet - Crowded House (played: 1, skipped: 0, last played: 15/2/1970... presumably there was something wrong with the clock when that got played, or did I miss the time-machine option?)
7. Is It Wicked Not To Care? - Belle & Sebastian (played: 1, skipped: 0, last played: 16/2/1970...)
8. Original (Live Dub) - Leftfield (played: 1, skipped: 0, last played: 17/6/2002)
9. Let Me Show You ('99 Remix) - K Klass (played: 4, skipped: 0, last played: 14/7/2002)
10. Hellbound - The Breeders (played: 0, skipped: 0, last played: Never)
