I recently saw this meme on a friend’s Facebook, and though it’s not a new concept, I’ve never done this.

Procedure: go to iTunes. Set to shuffle. Post the first 15 songs that come up in order. NO CHEATING.

HERE is what I came up with — with links to a video or MP3 for each. It’s like 15 of my Sweet Tunes Thursdays in one post. Enjoy!

1. Home (She & Him)
2. Speechless (Lady Gaga)
3. Broken Face (The Pixies)
4. Live to Tell (Madonna)
5. B-Movie Scream Queen (Murderdolls)
6. The Sinister Minister (Bela Fleck and the Flecktones)
7. Off the Wall (THE KING OF POP — Michael Jackson — you should probably watch this video because it’s a live performance and he was amazing.)
8. Wendy Clear (blink-182)
9. Third Eye (Tool)
10. Planet of the Apes (Frankenstein Drag Queens from Planet 13 — no video/mp3 but the lyrics are HILARIOUS)
11. Dread and the Fugitive Mind (Megadeth)
12. Jeremy (Pearl Jam)
13. Erection (The Faint)
14. Line by Line (Ms. John Soda)
15. God Send Death (Slayer)

Hmmm … a little less hard than I expected. Maybe this shows an apparent shift in my music taste that’s happened in the last year or two?

I was futzing around on iTunes the other day and adding some key albums to my wishlist, when I remembered that a couple bands that I’ve done album art for have their albums on iTunes.  I didn’t find one of them, but I did find my friend Flip’s band, The Half Hearts.

So cool to see your artwork somewhere so public!

Although … I can’t take credit for the illustrations. Those are my friend Kim‘s.
