Me: I'm not sure why the fact that Peter Jensen thinks something makes it front page news...
Reena: slow news day...
Me: must be.
Reena: actually, the fact that Peter Jensen is thinking ANYTHING is newsworthy.
Tess: Peter Jensen, single-handedly disproving the theory of evolution...

Open iTunes/iPod or Windows Media Player to answer the following. Go to your library. Answer, no matter how embarrasing it is.

How many songs: 2851

Sort by song title:
First Song: 'Cross the Nullarbor- Tommy Emmanuel
Last Song: Zorro's Theme

Sort by time:
Shortest Song: Intro- Michelle Branch (13 secs)
Longest Song: Sometimes- John Butler Trio (21 min 58)

Sort by album:
First Song: Holy Grail- Hunters and Collectors - comes up as first because i've put the album listing as (live), so as not to confuse it with the version on Cut
Last Song: Careless Whisper- Wham (no album)

Top Five Most Played Songs:
1. Lighthouse- The Waifs
2. I'm In London Still- The Waifs
3. I Will Not Go Quietly- The Whitlams (play count 32, mostly thanks to Sass)
4. Fisherman's Daugher- The Waifs (hmm. looks a bit obsessive, doesn't it?)
5. Hands- Jewel

i'm a little disturbed to note the total absence of Powderfinger, U2 and Matchbox from that list. My listening habits must have changed drastically when i reformmatted.

First song that comes up on Shuffle: It's on shuffle now, playing Hello, Goodbye by the Beatles. Next is John Farnham, You're the Voice.

Search ....
"sex", how many songs come up? 8 (twice as many as Ian, who has twice as much music as me!) and all but one of them actually have the word sex in them- one is by David Essex.
"death", how many songs come up? 0
"love", how many songs come up? 122 (i will note that iTunes searches composers, and as a result there are a heap of Beach Boys songs in there that don't have the word love anywhere in the song or album or artist listing)
"you", how many songs come up? 326
"cock", how many songs come up? 6. only one that actually has the word cock in it, rather than artist Joe Cocker or Halfcocked, is 'Carnival of the Animals- Cocks and Hens'. See. innocent amy.

Carlton Draught's Big Ad won an award at Cannes

in other news... Jen Garrick gave me a short list of some of her father's greatest ads. The Power Barn. Blue Haven Pools. Cardiff Toyota with the cross dressing man and the shopping trolley. nuff said.

Jen is amused when she tells people in sydney that her dad's in advertising. They go 'ooh, hmm, wow', and their inner networker twitches.
People in Newcastle ask suspiciously which advertising... Jen says 'well, remember the Power Barn...' and people know EXACTLY what daddy does, and tell her EXACTLY what they thought of it.
