Gah! These chain blog posts! I don't usually answer these type of surveys, but I was interested in seeing what Phil had on his computer. So here we go:
Total volume of music on my computer
3,222 songs from 1,072 artists, taking up 16.14GB and making for nearly 8.8 days of 24-hours-a-day listening.
My work computer (the playlists rarely overlap)
1,320 songs from 512 artists, taking up 6.05GB and making for nearly 3.7 days of 24-hours-a-day listening.
The last CD I bought
Black Cab's Altamont Diary, as I'd liked the two tracks I'd found on an mp3 blog. An Australia-only release, I found it used and had to manually order it using back-n-forth email with the shop owner.
Song playing right now
Thievery Corporation playing live with a full band on KCRW's Morning Becomes Eclectic
Five songs I listen to a lot, or that mean a lot to me
That changes every day, so currently it's:
Hot Chocolate - Everyone's a Winner
Junior Senior - Itch You Can't Scratch
Nerina Pallot - Everybody's Going to War
Parry Gripp - Do You Like Waffles?
Go Home Productions - Girl Wants (to say goodbye to) Rock And Roll
For those in the know, look for these on MILLS2005PTONE
Five people to whom I'm passing the baton
Mostly because I want to know how many gigs they're using: Peter Nacken, William Mellot, Danny Gregory, Patrick Benny, and Jean Snow.
