Hey, I got tagged for a meme. Well, normally, no biggie, except that this one is about music, and my musical tastes run from, well, "lame" to "eclectic" (and back). But, hey, what the hell. Thanks loads, Les.
Total volume of music on my computer:
I've ripped all of our music CDs (in fact, that's pretty much the only source of my music -- downloading tunes, legit or not, isn't my cuppa). According to iTunes for Windows (my MP3 player of choice, for various reasons), I have 9,069 tracks, which would play continuously for 19.5 days, taking up some 21.14Gb.
Which, as you might recall, was one of the problems I ran into when my hard drive crapped out and I had to backup and restore onto a smaller drive temporarily.
NB: It appears that I've managed to pick up a bunch of duplicate entries in iTunes. It's by no means doubled, but that number above is inflated.
The last CD I bought:
If we're talking CD per se, it would be Adams Vs. Jefferson: The Tumultuous Election of 1800. But that's a book-on-disc. The most recent music CD was ... hmmmm ... a cheapo collection of bluegrass-style Christmas tunes from one of those annoying "press the button to hear a music sample" kiosks at the mall. Before that, it was ... hmmmm ... the soundtrack to Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade sometime last year.
Song playing right now:
"Not Given Lightly" (Frente!, Labour of Love)
Five songs I listen to a lot, or that mean a lot to me:
Hmmmm. That's tough. Let's try; these (and, often, their accompanying album) have gotten pretty heavy rotation at various times:
All for very different reasons.
Five People To Whom I?m Passing The Baton:
Heh. Heh, heh, heh.
Actually, I've seen this floating around so much, I've lost track of who's done it. Hmmmm.
So, picking five bloggers-who-read-here out of a hat, let's say Doyce, Anne, Julia, DOF, and, oh, Marn ...
... come on down! (And leave a comment or trackback to here.)
(And if you've already done it, sorry for my crappy memory, and if you haven't, no pressure.)
