10 random tracks on your media player

Chrissie Hynde did a version of "Angel of the Morning"? Cool. I know a lot of people have done it, but I mainly know the Juice Newton version (which I liked).

Winamp doesn't do the most-frequently-played thing
It does, at least in version 5, in the media library there is Most Played and History, I think most played it kept for a month by default.

Using 5.3 and not seeing it...

07) AC DC and Def Leppard Dance Remix
Blasphemy!

Hardly. Go back and listen to, say, Highway to Hell. A lot of those songs have danceable beats, and the drums are out front in the mix. As for Def Leppard, I gather they started out metal, but Mutt Lange turned them into a much more pop proposition. (I never much cared for them either way, whereas I have a couple of AC/DC albums.)
 
Yeah, judging by the Winamp site, looks like that's new to 5.56. Maybe it's time to upgrade.

In the meantime, here we go, one more time:

  1. David Murray, "Jasvan," Ming
  2. Basic Channel, "Phylyps Track," BCD-2
  3. John Foxx, "Swimmer I," The Garden
  4. Benga, "Crunked Up," Diary of an Afro Warrior
  5. Steven Brown, "Waltz," Music for Solo Piano
  6. Ultravox, "Some of Them," Systems of Romance
  7. Maximo Park, "Russian Literature," Our Earthly Pleasures
  8. 10-20, "sA," 10-20
  9. Jesu, "Medicine," Conqueror
  10. Heralds of Change, "Sittin On the Side (instrumental)," Sittin' on the Side / Rock with You EP
Looking at that list, it wouldn't surprise me much if no one else here has much of that. Jazz, minimal techno, new wave, dubstep, modern classical, new wave, new wave/Britpop revivalism, IDM, shoegazer metal, and wonky hiphop... still, there must be some people here who are familiar with Ultravox, Maximo Park, and Jesu, at least.

Chrissie Hynde did a version of "Angel of the Morning"? Cool. I know a lot of people have done it, but I mainly know the Juice Newton version (which I liked).

Yeah, she actually performed it on an episode of Friends and my resourceful wife tracked it down on Limewire for me. It's a beautiful cover....
