> This is my Top 20 list of most played songs of all times as it appears on iTunes as of today, May 25, 2007.

> I have listened to those songs many times individually ever since I got my iPod, which is just about 14 months ago, and now, together, they make up my Top 20.
Naturally, I took some liberties here and there of not having every single song in my actual Top 20 appearing here. (Believe me. It's so much better off this way).

> RELAX: Guilty pleasures are not included. (Der).
> HEY: You do realise that this is mainly songs, I've been so much in love with, I haven't listened to anything else for days and weeks, don'tcha? Therefore, I can't help the missing flow of this mix.

> I don't listen to this very often, but some of the tracks are essentially part of my life, and so they make their way to the top, continuously.

> Please. Try and fucking enjoy. I did for a year or so. And oh, here's partly why.

tracklist

1 Yann Tiersen : Comptine d'un autre été : L'aprèes-midi
I love this song, big times. Already included in one of my other mixes, this Amélie song does so much for me. I used to listen to it everysinglemorning on my way to school. Now it's been reduced to 10-20 plays a week.

2 Oranger : Mr. Sandman
Ah. This song is cute. There's no more-teenage-friendly version of Mr. Sandman than this one provided by Oranger. I thank thee. But yeah, the original Chordettes song is a classic. It's just not on my Top 20.

3 The Wannadies : You and Me Song
Waow. This song represents the entire first five months of my year as a freshmen. Five months later, and I'm not in love anymore.

4 Nouvelle Vague : In A Manner Of Speaking (Featuring Camille)
I have just recently purchased this song (two weeks ago! Gasp if you care), and already it's in my Top 5. This song is the best when you are reading a book. Make it a nostalgic novel on boys and girls and parties in the 60s' suburbs, and this song is doomed to make you cry as you turn and turn the pages.
Seriously. You should try, man.

8 Björk : It's Oh So Quiet
This song is my favorite to-perform song when I'm drunk.
Next time, grab that fucking iPod out of my hands, will ya?

I also did Stairway To Heaven once or twice.

I don't know what's worse; me hushing at people and doing some weird Björk inspired (yeah right) dance inbetween my screams, or me making guitar noises for 8 full minutes.

I repeat: Grab that fucking iPod from me.

10 Muse : Stockholm Syndrome
I used to feel on top of the world whenever I listened to this song. But then, one night, these nice assholes made me believe we were going to be best buddies, the three of us, AS I WAS LISTENING TO THIS SONG, and then later, they turned their back on me.
Plus, I shared this song with a guy who, for some reason, is avoiding me at school now. He's graduating this summer, and I'll never ever see him again.

11 Deftones : Simple Man
This Lynyrd Skynyrd cover is the best Deftones song. In my opinion. I have almost played it a hundred times in the past four months.
- Not impressing at all, I know.

Whoa, you have Oranger on there. I saw them play w/ Roky Erickson and Howlin' Rain. I wasn't super into their set, but they played right after HR, which is a tough act to follow. I bet their recorded stuff is cool.
