On your music platform of choice (Spotify, itunes, Amazon etc), select the shuffle option on your entire library...

What 10 songs come up when you press next? (this may include a few Eurovision songs :p And no skipping! No matter how embarrassing ;))

Here's what I got:
1. Dreaming by Blondie
2. Hand in Glove by The Smiths
3. Train in Vain by The Clash
4. A Bar in Amsterdam by Katzenjammer
5. Sweet but Psycho by Ava Max
6. Is This the End by Miss Li
7. Vicious by Lou Reed
8. Breathe by Jax Jones & Ina Wroldsen
9. Ain't It Fun by Paramore
10. That'll Be the Day by Buddy Holly

EDIT: Oh I like how people are including the flag of the country that the artist is from! And then occasionally the genre/ release date/ it's Eurovision links too!

Nice idea! :D I got awesome songs, despite adding over 3,360 tracks to one single playlist, from all kinds of genres. I even added all the mainstream songs I had, but that shuffle worked its magic around them somehow, haha! Bless you Winamp! xheat

01. :uk: "The Great Battle" - Geoffrey Burgon [BBC The Chronicles of Narnia OST]
02. :fi: "Those Were The Days" - Turisas
03. :de: "Farewell" - Avantasia
04. :de: "Woad To Ruin" - Hans Zimmer
[King Arthur OST]
05. :us: "Libera Me" - Elliot Goldenthal [Interview with the Vampire OST]
06. :us::uk: "Loreley" - Blackmore's Night
07. :ca: "The Dark Night of the Soul" - Loreena McKennitt
08. :de: "Eweroun" - Falkenbach
09. :it: "Non Ho L'età" - Gigliola Cinquetti
10. :uk: "You'll Be In My Heart" - Phil Collins


So Scores/Soundtracks, Epic Metal, Folk-ish stuff and a little Eurovision thrown in for good measure! :D xheart The type of music I love listening to most of all anyway. xlove

Nice idea. Eurovision songs are bolded. It saddens me most of the list comes from the United States and only one song is not in English. Statistically talking, my library consists of more European songs than American and probably half of songs aren't in English.

01 :ca: Les Cowboys Fringants - Paris Montréal (535 Plays)
02 :us: Tessa Violet - On My Own (246 Plays)
03 :us: Katy Perry - Chained to the Rhythm feat. Skip Marley (393 Plays)
04 :be: Warhaus - Love's a Stranger (160 Plays)
05 :ee: Jüri Pootsmann - Play (315 Plays)
06 :us: Echosmith - Over My Head (186 Plays)
07 :us: Michael Jackson - Billie Jean (151 Plays)
08 :us: Todrick Hall - Papi feat. Nicole Scherzinger (357 Plays)
09 :nl: Waylon - Outlaw in 'em (112 Plays)
10 :us: Fleet Foxes - Mykonos (158 Plays)

This was so much fun, I had to do it again! This time I ended up with a couple of Eurovision songs, a few WorldVision hits, and a Melodifestivalen classic, among others.

01. :fi: "Satojen Merien Näkijä" - Johanna Kurkela
02. :ie: "If My World Stopped Turning" - Chris Doran
03. :hr: "Sad Kada Došla Si" - Bosutski Bećari & Klapa Cambi
04. :cy: "S.O.S." - Elena Patroclou
05. :us: "Seven Bridges Road" - Dolly Parton
06. :us::uk: "Past Time With Good Company" - Blackmore's Night
07. :pt: "Scorpion Flower" - Moonspell
08. :ph: "Itanong Mo Sa Mga Bata" - Asin
09. :se: "Svart" - Joacim Cans
10. :se: "Om Igen" - Lena Philipsson


ohh cool, I've got a 'hits' folder on Spotify with over a 100 songs in it, so this it what came up from that:
The point was to include your entire library though, and not just a specific niched playlist/folder. Hence why the thread starter said that you had to include whatever came up, even if it was a bit embarrassing. ;)

It's my largest concentration of songs in one place, it's not huge as I didn't get spotify until recently and been adding to it bit by bit. Any other folder just has a couple of random songs from here or there, 95% of which are in this folder. Trust me there is some embarrassing things in there. ;)

This was a lot of fun to do. I mostly use Spotify these days but I don't really make big playlists there (I just listen to albums individually) so for this I used Itunes where I have a lot of songs (12,346 songs, 32 days of music to be precisexfaint). Nice to hear songs and artists again that I haven't listened to in a very long time. I Go Shopping is still the bop it always wasxyes

It's going to be hard for me not to want to do this again..... like later this evening or something.

I concur, this is too addicting! :D

01. :de: "La Primavera" - Sash!
02. :ca: "Seeds of Love" - Loreena McKennitt
03. :yu: "Ljubim Te Pesmama" - Extra Nena

10. :se: "Jag Vill Ha En Egen Måne" - Ted Gärdestad

A '90s Dance hit, a beautiful Celtic Folk song, three great Eurovision classics back-to-back, a Hip Hop classic, a couple of Movie Scores with a wonderful Breton artist in between, and a Swedish '70s classic. This time it actually proves I genuinely added every single track I had on my computer to this playlist, and not just from my usual preferred genres of Metal, Celtic/Folk, New Age/World and Scores. :lol:
