What I’m listening to
Kung-Tunes is an OS X program that makes it possible to generate a list of your most-recently-heard iTunes tracks, and post them automatically on a web page. So, with some script help from Tim’s Bandwagon, I’ve got the thing up and running on this very page. Look in the menu bar (scroll down) to see what I’ve been listening to, and try not to be too appalled at my taste in music. I’ve been listening to an awful lot of cheesy pop from my junior high years lately. That’s what the iTunes music store is great for — buying the singles you’d otherwise never touch in album form.
(If it seems that the Posies are playing an awful lot… well, I have an… unusual amount of Posies tracks. For obvious reasons.)
Ah, cheesy pop songs from one’s youth. For myself, when I find myself enjoying those tunes I wonder if it’s just nostalgia or if I just didn’t have the guts to admit that I liked those songs back in the day. (Or maybe the fact that the radio isn’t playing the thing every 40 minutes….)
Oh, I admitted liking them back in the day. In junior high I wasn’t worried about “being hip on the indie scene.” 😉
