Desert Island Songs
Starting at the end of 2008, I began "scrobbing" the tracks I play at home and work with LastFM. The major intent of this was to have a software independent means of tracking my favorite songs. I use the "Loved" button on my playlists for the stuff I play that I like the best. Unlike most people I listen to albums, so I listen to stuff I "like" but not necessarily "love" as a result.
This list is inspired by BBC Radio DJ John Peel, who had a box of 45 RPM singles that he kept separate from the 100,000 pieces of vinyl and CDs in his collection. Thanks to the digital age however I can make my collection known and I can add to it more easily. I keep a separate folder with these tracks copied into it as well so I can easily burn a couple discs or download it to an mp3 player (if I ever buy one). I also have a list of Desert Island Albums with my favorite albums.
This list is updated about once a week, or however often I remember. There are 6667 songs currently listed. If you have any questions/comments/suggestions you can always contact me.
