IPOD SHUFFLE

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

the shame :oops:

Taxi Driver - Hanoi Rocks
Lucky Day - Flesh For Lulu
Since I Met You - The Damned
Chameleon - Cockney Rebel
Preacher Man - Fields Of The Nephilim
Day In Day Out - David Bowie
Foil - Autechre
Suffragette City - Frankie Goes To Hollywood
A Dolls House - John Barry
War - Laibach

have to admit that i would probably skip almost all of them if they came up during the course of normal listening :lol:

a quick reshuffle gives a much better list:

Billy - King Kurt
Atari Baby 97 (remix) - Sigue Sigue Sputnik
Toi Du Monde - The Young Gods
Che - Suicide
Wardance - Killing Joke
Severance - Dead Can Dance
Lucifer Sam / Astronomy Dominé - Pink Floyd
Rip Her To Shreds - Blondie
Neurochasm - Ozric Tentacles
The Supermen - David Bowie

;D

that's using the "iTunes DJ" feature of itunes, which is basically a shuffle of your entire collection, which claims to be ~16,000 songs (of which less than a quarter are sisters bootlegs, i might add :P)
