I'm listening to all the songs on my iPod in alphabetical order by artist. You may think this is really weird and completely arbitrary. It is. I'm doing it to figure out what I should take out and what I should keep, and listening to it at work helps with the boredom. I realized that I ripped most of my CDs with iTunes' proprietary format instead of mp3s or oggs. Bleh.

I have a lot of songs from "Various Artists". Most of that is from the set of Japanese soap opera theme song CDs that I got for my best friend one Christmas. There are a few good ones.

I think I kind of hate Moby now. I don't know why, but I got bored listening to him, and then irritated.

I don't have any hiphop newer than Nappy Roots. (Need to get more.) I think I will love Mos Def and Jurassic Five until I die.

I still love Poe.

I'm keeping Shonen Knife just for the "Catnip Dreams" song.

I really like songs with random animals in the title.

I'm over J-rock. Ah, boys in goth drag.

I'm very attached to my Canto-pop. I cannot have an objective opinion about it, especially when I spent the first half of my life absorbed in the awards shows, the silly videos, the gossip around the singers, not to mention the karaoke. I wish I had the Andy Lau song "The Toilet is My Hero". I only have it on VCD.

I love Wong Kar-Wai's soundtracks more and more every time I hear them. They're just so perfect.
