iTunes signature maker does magical things with your iTunes library and spits out a twenty second WAV representing your listening habits.

Here's mine. Apparently there are twenty songs in there. You get a point for each one you identify, and a thousand virgins shower you with lotus blossoms if you post a link to your own.

Sorry. Thre's some malformed HTML in there which may deprive you of the full glory of my question. s I was saying:

Mike W. I think I heard James Taylor, Neil Young, Dolly Parton and Calvin Beat Happening.

Mine.

Ha! I love this - and it's pretty accurate for me anyway - even down to including my kids favourite two records at the end.

Ned Trifle's Signature

this is like Bits 'n' Pieces on the old radio 1 roadshows (before they started making it easy by including the titles in the snippets). ned trifles seemed to be blondie, the cheeky girls, a lot of spoken word stuff and the doctor who theme.

s'right, the spoken word things were the start of a Trams Am track, the end of an Ivor Cutler track and the start of a Lemon jelly album. Interesting the New Order snippet is from a track I'm sure I haven't played recently.

This is the other thread...

That's 'Trans Am' of course, and, incidentally, it's the shortest track on my ITs library (at 0.06).

Sorry for failing to find the other thread. I did search, but, at the end of the day, I remain an asshat.

In the interests of putting off the eventual heat death of the universe due to its increasing entropy, I've replied to bendy, Ned and Jazzbo in the original thread.
