My Top Ten Songs

I’ve been using the site Last.fm to track my listening habits since April of 2004. While my current username has mostly been scrobbling tracks since November of 2009, I never really finished scrobbling to my old username until June of 2011.

Since opening the account associated with my current username, below are my top ten most played songs; links open the track in Spotify.

  1. Billy Talent – Saint Veronika (35 plays)
  2. Metallica – …And Justice For All* (27 plays)
  3. Billy Talent – Viking Death March (27 plays)
  4. Alter Bridge – Blackbird (26 plays)
  5. Slipknot – Dead Memories (25 plays)
  6. Muse – Supremacy (25 plays)
  7. Muse – Hysteria (24 plays)
  8. Billy Talent – The Dead Can’t Testify (24 plays)
  9. Muse – Follow Me (24 plays)
  10. Thom Yorke – And It Rained All Night (22 plays)

* This song is artificially elevated to #2 status as it would appear at the top of my library and start playing by default on my Android phone… which I experimented with for almost a year. My #11 is Alice In Chains – Would? and should actually be my #10 song.

Love Is Blindness by U2

Love is blindness
I don’t want to see
Won’t you wrap the night
Around me
Oh my heart
Love is blindness

In a parked car
In a crowded street
You see your love
Made complete
Thread is ripping
The knot is slipping
Love is blindness

Love is clockworks
And cold steel
Fingers too numb to feel
Squeeze the handle
Blow out the candle
Love is blindness

Love is blindness
I don’t want to see
Won’t you wrap the night
Around me
Oh my love
Blindness

A little death
Without mourning
No call
And no warning
Baby…a dangerous idea
That almost makes sense

Love is drowning
In a deep well
All the secrets
And no one to tell
Take the money
Honey
Blindness

Love is blindness
I don’t want to see
Won’t you wrap the night
Around me
Oh my love
Blindness
