What are you listening to?

britny spears is satan I need your help. I have 7 iPods and not nearly enough music to fill them all. As I have admitted in the past, there are very few songs in the universe that I can tolerate listening to on a regular basis - but I am sure there are more out there, worthy of my attention. Problem is, the only free time I have is the time when I am already on the subway or walking the streets of NYC… listening to the same songs I already know about, instead of sitting in front of my XM radio looking for new ones. Granted, there are hundreds of songs I like well enough, but not enough to listen to more than once in a blue moon.

I rarely have the patience to browse and sample songs in the iTMS and I only head over to allofmp3.com when I am looking for something specific that iTMS doesn’t have. So I am asking you to do my homework for me, k?

If everyone reading this would please list (via the comments) the 5 most-played songs in their iTunes library, I’d appreciate it :) I figure TUAW has a pretty broad readership so I should see a rather eclectic mix of stuff.

If I end up with enough songs that I really dig, I’ll even publish a TUAW iMix of them and credit all the contributers. Deal?

[thanks to C.K. for helping me find the perfect image for this post.]
