2011 playlist
for the last 2 years i've been making a smart playlist in itunes of all the songs i listened to in that year.
it's a slightly flawed attempt at getting a snapshot of my musical year. between that and my last.fm charts, i have an approximation of what kind of music i've liked, what the big hits were for me and how behind i am on pop-culture and actually listening to new music.
ok, so maybe it's a bit weird and self-obsessed to do that. i'd like to blame age conte and russell davies, both of whom talked about lists of songs they listened to using last.fm and itunes. but the reality is that i've kept it up long after they wrote about it...
which just makes me a sad sack, with not enough self-obsession to do it properly, and not enough reason to not do it at all. lucky i like myself for a whole bunch of other reasons :)
here's last year's list (you should be able to click to enlarge)

*it's slightly flawed because i keep forgetting to reset the play count, and it doesn't include songs i play on my iphone (which is increasingly the bulk of my listening these days).
