The directions from my friend D on Facebook were simple:
1) turn on your mp3 player
2) go to Shuffle songs mode
3) Write down the first 25 songs that come up...song title and artist-- NO editing/cheating, please.
4) Choose 25 people to be tagged. It is generally considered to be in good taste to tag the person who tagged you.
I followed the directions and here is what resulted. I will try to keep the commentary to a minimum.

I think the only word that fits is "eclectic." I'll leave it to the professionals to analyze what my random song selection says about me.
(By the way, I seem to have lost the bullets function on Blogger. I think I used to have it, but it has disappeared. So I apologize for not having the list look more orderly.)

I love the song "Sara Smile." I was wondering if it would come up on my list, too.
I would hae tagged you if I had any idea how to do that.
You have a remarkably diverse list, just as I would have expected, and you have a lot of more contemporary music than I have, too.
I'm going to go listen to "I'm Not in Love" by 10cc and relive another high school moment.
