Random Rules November - Submissions

[Brad]

Welcome to November's first Monday...

It's time for Random Rules!

All you need to do is submit your list of 10 random songs - the next ten that come up via the random generator on your entire music library. We'll pull them all together then start the next part in a couple days (48 hours or 10 lists, whichever comes last), then start the elimination process to create the Random Rules Jukebox for November.

Bring on the dancing horses... start posting!

Oh yeah! I look forward so much to these threads.

Hey, we should do predictions for each of our own lists. From mine I'd probably have to say Whole Lotta Love, or Fly Me to the Moon if not that. I really hope History Lesson Part II makes it from Nassim's list though, I love that track.

I personaly skip skits, intros and such things when I make my playlist !

De La Soul - WRMS: Cat's in Control <---heh, as if this is going to get very far

I personaly skip skits, intros and such things when I make my playlist !

I include them, but haven't hit any really bad ones yet (although one of my selections this month may definitely qualify as "bad"). I have a lot of sound effect "dub plates" (like gun shots and yodelers, for example) on my itunes courtesy of People Like Us. Again, though, none of these have popped up yet.

We have 11 lists already, so elimination will begin tomorrow.
Still plenty of time for more lists - I'll keep this open until 10am EST tomorrow!
