New Wave Outpost Forum

Now that I've been able to exchange my 20gig iPod for an 80gig (always buy the insurance at circuit city when purchasing an iPOd so you can do this, too....they even almost encourage you to break your iPod on purpose if you want to upgrade just as long as you bought the 2 year warranty/insurance).....

Now, the iPod game will begin again (and we all know how much I love this game. I am a nerd...)

Rules are: 15 song limit. Press shuffle and list the first 15 artists and songs that come up (no cheating....and don't be embarrassed by what you've got stored in your iPod or in iTunes on your desktop)

Here's my first iPod Shuffle for Christmas 2006:


NAKED EYES/Fortune And Fame

THE BLUEBELLS/Will She Always Be Waiting

THE BOOMTOWN RATS/(I Never Loved) Eva Braun

MADNESS/Turning Blue

JAMES REYNE/No Secrets

ROBERT PALMER/Sulky Girl

GINA X PERFORMANCE/Hom Intern

MUDDYHEAD/Style It Takes

DEXYS MIDNIGHT RUNNERS/Dance Stance

JOE & MIKE NOLTE (The Last)/Difference (Acoustic)

SQUEEZE/Cool For Cats

SQUEEZE/Someone Else's Heart (Odd that 2 Squeeze in a row and both sung by Chris Difford!)

ELVIS PRESLEY/For The Heart

MISSING PERSONS/Walking In LA

SQUEEZE/Woman's World (myPod obviously likes Squeeze!)


I've got 6212 songs in my iPod (I check and clean out the duplicates, if any, a few times per week). I've got thousands of CDs in this room waiting to be added. They'll have to wait a week or two since I'll be a bit busy!

I'm such a sucker for this...

Ride - Black Night Crash
Orbital - Satan
Anberlin - Paperthin Hymn
Gleaming Spires - A Christian Girl's Problems
New Order - Dub Vulure 12"
Lotus Eaters - The First Picture of You
Peter Marlow - I Just Want to Dance
Minor Detail - Others Need You
The Clean - Getting Older 7"
DJ Vadim - London Mind State
Jimmie Haskel - A Shot in the Dark (lounge)
Bauhaus - Terror Couple Kill Colonel 7"
The Chameleons - Return of the Roughnecks
The Korgis - Everybody's Got to Learn Sometime
Innocence Mission - Mercy

I got a very cool thing that lets me play my ipod in the car via a weak FM signal! I took an extra long ride today.

Clash - Up in Heaven (Not Only Here)
Shona Laing - Sovet Snow (Razormaid mix)
New Order - Temptation
APB - One Day
Sue Sadd & the Next - Gimmie Love/Gimmie Pain
20/20 - Cherie
Pat Benetar - I'm Gonna Follow You
'Til Tuesday - Believed You Were Lucky
Rich Kids - Hung Up on You

Just to prove that my iPod is not as New Wave oriented as my last run through would suggest, I'm trying it again. I'm not embarrassed by the fact that it picks only '80s stuff, but I swear that there is more to me than new wave:

THE BEATLES/Across the Universe
ADAM & THE ANTS/Physical (You're So)
BMX BANDITS/Come Out Of The Shadows
FALCO/Fascinating Man
DEPECHE MODE/Photographic (Some Bizarre Version)
THE ENGLISH BEAT/Click Click
SPLIT ENZ/Hello Sandy Allen
THE BEATLES/Michelle
SQUEEZE/Revu
ELVIS PRESLEY/His Latest Flame
LEVEL 42/Dream Crazy
THE FIXX/Two Different Views
ICEHOUSE/Trojan Blue
STATUS QUO/Bellavista Man
ULTRAVOX/Time To Kill


Maybe I'm wrong? Perhaps myPod is as stuck in the '80s as I am?

It would be so much better if it was the 1927 tune (at least I would feel hipper [:)]). But, no, it's Glass Tiger...

One of the great things about playing this game is seeing what other people have loaded into their iPods. It usually reminds me of what/who to load into myPod next.

As I said in a different post, going from 20 to 80gigs has allowed me room for another 15, 000 songs or so. And I'm working on it!

Cant' waste this post by NOT playing the game, can I?

XTC/Real By Reel
GINA X/Vendor's Box
THE EXPONENTS/Close
THE BEATLES/You've Got To Hide Your Love Away
CHINA CRISIS/Blue Sea
DEPECHE MODE/Fly On The Windscreen-Final
ELVIS PRESLEY/If I Can Dream
DEPECHE MODE/Any Second Now (Voices)
THE DICKIES/Dummy Up
FALCO/Mutter, Der Mann Mit Dem Koks Ist Da
TIM FINN/Salt To The Sea
MARSHAL CRENSHAW/TMD
CHINA CRISIS/Bigger the Punch I'm Feeling
ADAM & THE ANTS/Don't Be Square Be There
HALL & OATES/Out Of Touch


Now that I've got 6,287 songs in myPod, I was hoping it showed more variety but why complain!

Looks like someone should make their Santa feel really bad over the next few days and have them rush out and buy you an 80gb iPod right away before 2007 hits!

In the meantime, you can download iTunes and start building your catalog so it's ready to go when your significant other finally feels bad enough to buy you an Ipod!
