Echo and the Bunnyment " Stormy Weather. " I have been trying to tab out this song, so I have had it on repeat for days.

Halloweenhead off the Easy Tiger album from Ryan Adams (204 plays).

It's interesting to look at the play counts. I have about 280 songs I haven't even played.

Under Playlists.
I don't know if I deleted that one or what, but I set up a new Smart Playlist and got it going. Looks like I listen to Joe Bonamassa, Merle Haggard, Junior Brown and Amy Winehouse the most.:D On the iPod, anyway.

Where do I find this most played list?

It ships with iTunes, but you can make it yourself.

File -> New Smart Playlist

Create a rule that states "Playcount - is greater than - 0"

Limit to 25 items, selected by "most often played"

Now save this and give it a good name. If you sync it with an iPod, then it shows what songs are most played ON THAT IPOD. Makes a difference, in my house there are 5 iPods!

That does it. You can add other rules, such as excluding items like podcasts and audiobooks, etc.

Dylan, any vintage of Dylan, is usually first. but recently I played "It's Hard to Kiss the Lipps at Night That Chew Your Ass Off All Day Long" by Vince Gill.....yes-it's real and it's true.

I'm almost scared to post mine. On my Zune, my most played song is Suspended by the Throat - Job for a Cowboy. Don't worry I always follow that one up with Good Lord Mr. Ford :)

Patty Loveless, Dreamin' My Dreams album. I've been a fan of hers forever, she can do no wrong in my view. But this album has convinced me that after 55 years of listening to country music she has no equal. She is by far the most soulful country singer to have walked the planet.

When I Get Where I'm Going by Brad Paisley. It hits me everytime because it makes me think of my lost loved ones I listen to that probably twenty times a week.

Just looked that up on YouTube. You're right, it's pretty scary.

I refer, of course, to Lord, Mr Ford. Job for a Cowboy on the other hand may end up on my iPod.

Don't have an iPod; don't have iTunes.

Tons of MP3s, though, mainly from Amazon's weekly freebies. Great way to discover new artists! Today I was enjoying songs from a sampler of Scandinavian bands.

Also been digging an MP3 album I bought off Amazon -- collaboration between Pete Yorn and Scarlett Johansson. Supposedly inspired (in part) by an old collaboration between Serge Gainsbourg and Brigitte Bardot (!!!), which I've never heard of. Now I gotta track that one down!
