These play counts are insane.... Did you know that they would collectively add up to about ONE YEAR of non-stop listening to Taylor Swift...?

They get terribly low at the bottom. :( I love those songs though, but I love the others more. Does that make me a bad fan? Answer honestly, PLEASE!

Surely you must be lying here...how can you even do this to yourself? Even the most amazing music in the world gets tiresome after a few dozen plays.


I disagree. I'm not sick of one single Taylor Swift song yet. I know of a Taylor fan who played Mine over 14,000 times!

Wow, that's insane.

I have no idea how many times I play my favourite artists (that's plural, rather than just 1 singer) but I bet my most played song is still under 100 times.

Oh wait, I did have a phase of playing CDs to help me get to sleep (actually I still do that, but I use radio shows on CD instead as the speaking voice is better than singing for trying to sleep) so I guess a few of those songs might top 100 (though probably not by much). If I remember correctly at the time I mostly played The Bends [Radiohead], Who Killed the Zutons [The Zutons], Asleep in the back [Elbow], Cast of Thousands [Elbow], and Parachutes [Coldplay].

I suspect I have probably played fewer tracks in my life than you have played your top ten Taylor tracks.

Indeed.

I don't really think Coldplay did anything wrong until the X&Y album (with the possible exception being Green Eyes from Rush of Blood to the Head). I don't listen to them that much anymore instead searching for new stuff and listening to more electronic sounds on Spotify, but it's rare I'll skip across early Coldplay when I play a random selection. (Especially Clocks, which was my favourite song for quite a while)

Oh, I forgot to mention Absolution [Muse] and The Milk-Eyed Mender [Joanna Newsom] in the list of albums I listened to back then.

(But how do you check play counts on itunes?)


Disassemble your computer and send you hard-drive to apple, and a few weeks later they will send you back you play count list. It costs $30 which is a little pricey, but it is soo worth it!

I think it'll probably take them more than few weeks after going through my 10k+ tracks in my library...


10k tracks? Oh, it could take months or perhaps years in that case.



OT: I think my top played song on itunes only has 27 plays...
