Gives You Hell - All American Rejects

I'm glad there's so many good bands whose names begin with A and B. It means I never have to hit shuffle on my itunes (unless I get bored).

I don't have that many that begin with a and b...

For me it goes like this;
Aerosmith
All American Rejects
All Time Low
Avril Lavigne (sometimes I skip her)
Black Stone Cherry
Blink 182
Counting Crows

That's my iPod playlist rather than my full music collection, and there's an album or so of each band.

Currently on All Time Low - Walls. Great song.
Ayreon and Blind Guardian =)

7601 songs. Still. Haven't fixed the freakin' iPod.

Currently, listening to the dryer.

Hmm, there do seem to be a disproportionate number of good A and B bands. From my own collection,
AFI
After Forever
Alestorm
Apocalyptica
Avenged Sevenfold
Ayreon
Baroness
Bear McCreary
Black Mountain
Blind Guardian
Blue Öyster Cult
Breaking Benjamin
BT

There are a few others with one or two good songs I haven't listed, too.
Hmm, now I'm all curious about the numbers of artists with different start letters...

I was bored, so I whipped up a quick Python script to count the frequencies of initial letters in my collection. Here's the results (note, "The [something]" bands are classified by the initial letter of the something, not T):

Code: Select all

A 9
B 8
C 5
D 10
E 6
F 2
G 7
H 5
I 4
J 6
K 3
L 5
M 8
N 3
O 4
P 6
Q 3
R 7
S 3
T 7
U 1
V 3
W 2
X 1
Y 1
Z 1
Conclusion: A and B are disproportionately popular, led only by D, though B is equalled by M.

That's quite Interesting...a lot of my favourite songs seem to begin with letters at the end of the alphabet
Y = 3
W = 17
U = 5
S = 31
R & T have too many for me to attempt to count. :P
Bartimaeus: It won't be the only mad thing about if you let this lot go. Check out that one at the end. He's taken the form of a footstool. Weird...but somehow I like his style.
Nathaniel: That is a footstool. No one's using that Pentacle.

That's why I wrote scripts to do it. No way I'm counting 3,122 song titles by hand... =p

Oi, Sent, how does your version begin? I've only got the one that starts with the organ. I want the version that begins with a synthesizer. Or I think it's a synthesizer.

I tend to listen to lots of random songs, rather than albums.
