Not sure if this has been done on this forum, but anyway, couldn't be simpler.

1) Grab your iPod or preferred medium of playing music.

2) Put ALL of the said device onto shuffle/random (no missing out that embarrassing record).

3) List the first 10 songs that come up in order.

4) Highlight in bold your favorite of the selection.

5) Next person comments on your list to make it interactive and initiate banter/mocking of the above persons list. Comment on your favourite song from the list, simply state that you've never heard any of that junk or ridicule the fact that a 20+ male has a Britney Spears song on their iPod.

Anyway I'll start us off, enjoy!
 
Radiohead - Pyramid Song
The Dø - Aha
Method Man - 4:20
Madlib - Full Figure Pockets (Pay Jay)
Sage Francis - Runaways
Onra & Quetzal - Ya Fohi (interlude)
Johnny Cash - Would You Lay WIth Me (In A Field Of Stone)
Sonic Youth - Star Power
Raphael Saadiq - Never Give You Up
Lush - Sunbathing

Easy choice for my favorite.

We had a somewhat similar thread about creating poems from the first lines of songs selected like this. Weird stuff :P

1. Carl Orff - Reie
2. U2 - Wake Up Dead Man
3. Pink Floyd - Learning to Fly
4. Mark Mancina - Chasing Through Time
5. Howard Shore - A Knife in the Dark
6. Queen* - No-One but You (Only the Good Die Young)
7. Bear McCreary - The Cylon Prisoner
8. Bear McCreary - Passacaglia
9. Sphere - REALOVEREALIFE
10. Bear McCreary - Starbuck Disappears
*Or rather, a cover by Kerry Ellis.

And, while you said not to, I left out about 230 songs scattered all over my computer. (Game soundtracks.)
So that left me with about 650 songs, 153 of which form the Battlestar Galactica soundtrack, 57 of which make up the Lord of the Rings soundtrack, 25 of which make up the Carmina Burana, 33 of which make up the Blood+ soundtrack... I like soundtracks :P
 
This is out of 5,660 tracks, a total of 352 hours of music.

1. Tali - Kabuto the Python & B.C
2. Summer's Not Hot - Selena Gomez & The Scene
3. Hallelujah - Man On Fire
4. Euphemistic Reason - Carved Inside
5. Forseen - The Livid
6. If You Can't Live Without Me, Why Aren't You Dead Yet? - Mayday Parade
7. Nightmare Village Milm (A Good, Unknown Anxiety) - Noriyuki Iwadare
8. 愛は棺の中に - D
9. Civil War & Isolation: Thirst - I Am Ghost
10. Daylight Thru The Nightlife - Sienna Skies

Honestly none of those are really favourites. Kind of embarrassing to have Selena Gomez there, but ah well.
