iTunes DJ sucks

joey — Mon, 04 May 2009 21:10:10 +0000

iTunes DJ replaced Party Shuffle in version 8.1. It’s basically the same thing (with some iPhone crap thrown on), except when you double-click a song to listen to it, it moves that song to the top of the list instead of skipping to it. WHY WOULD YOU CHANGE THAT????

SoundCloud

Check It Out by joeynelson

SoundCloud seems pretty cool, kind of like Flickr for music. And like Flickr, it’s totally crippled if you aren’t willing to shell out some cash. Unfortunately, 59 euros a month for unlimited tracks doesn’t really sound like a bargain to me. Nice widget though.

(If I Fell Into A) Coma

At the risk of overpromoting the best comedy podcast on the internet, I feel obligated to point you towards (If I Fell Into A) Coma, the latest track from The Ben & Joey Show.

Yeah buttons would have been easier but come on, this has a laser.

The Gimmes

Typing “gimme” into the search box in iTunes ended up giving me a great playlist:

Clap Your Hands Say Yeah – Gimme Some Salt
Dabrye – Gimme Lowlands
KMD – Gimme!
Notorious B.I.G. – Gimme the Loot
Rolling Stones – Gimme Shelter

Since the lyrics to the Clap Your Hands song are completely unintelligible, I actually looked them up the other day and discovered that they’re pretty bleak.

In the Navy

I had somehow never heard the Village People song “In the Navy” until we started listening to the 70s music station on our digital cable. Now I’ve heard it about 5,000 times and I feel qualified to say that it’s the most retarded song ever recorded.
