This is another Facebook meme, to whit:
(1) Turn on your MP3 player (or iTunes). (2) Go to SHUFFLE songs mode. (3) Write down the first 20 songs that come up--song title and artist--NO editing/cheating.
I don't normally bother with these sorts of things but this one was right up my alley so I couldn't resist. I wanted to post the list here so I could add links to tracks and video clips for your listening and viewing pleasure. Also I'm pretty proud of this list, it's a great cross-section of what's on my MP3 player and all pretty damn fine if I do say so myself. Not a single track I'm ashamed of.
