What's your most played song?

Bit hard to tell unless you are using iTunes (where it keeps a count of how many times you've played a song), or use something like Audioscrobbler...

Currently mine is a two-way tie:-

Frank Zappa
- Oh No/Orange County Lumber Truck (from 'Weasels Ripped My Flesh')

and

Jefferson Airplane - D.C.B.A. (from 'Surrealistic Pillow')

both on 25 plays each...

but, I just discovered this:- I've spent the most time listening to Neil Young - Cortez The Killer (from 'Zuma' ) - with 18 plays at 7:31 a time, I've spent over 135 minutes listening to that, whereas Frank Zappa's OCLT has only racked up 127 minutes :)
 
Cortez The Killer 👍 👍 👍

According to my Audioscrobbler my most played song is Snoop Dogg - Drop it Like its Hot @ 54 plays

:lol: I'll put it down to the fact it was summer time here and the song was in it's prime radiowave wise :D

2nd is Muse - Stockholm Syndrome at 49. My current favourite would probably be Slipknot - Pulse Of The Maggots :)
 
I have no idea which song I've played the most times. But I can guestimate that the most time I've spent listening to a song is Dream Theater - A Change of Seasons. I used to listen to it all the time, plus countless times when I've sat down to try and learn all the guitar parts in it. As much as I could with my six string anyway. :dunce: A little over 23 minutes every time, I think it's a safe bet.
 
Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb has racked up the longest airtime on my computer, although I haven't played it in awhile now.
 
I think Tom Sawyer by Rush was my most played song on my old PC. I haven't listened to any song more than twice on my new PC; I use shuffle most of the time.
 
I'm wonder what people are going to say to this :lol:?

Journey - Don't stop believing
 
Franz Ferdinand - Take me out
Coldplay - Yellow
Kaiser Chiefs - I predict a riot
 
I havent been arsed to use Audioscrobbler since a reformat a few weeks ago. It used to be Leif Karate - Kids Alright on top of my list.
 
Leif Karate? Is that meant to be a take on Leif Garrett do you think? (as in 'I Was Made For Dancing' fame/notoriety?)

My audioscrobbler is pure nonsense... bears no resemblance to what I actually listen to at all for some odd reason... number one song is The Faces - Stay With Me (iTunes says 6 plays, audioscrobbler says I've played it 16 times :dunce: )

I have no Idea what Leif they're eventually reffering to. Never heard of Garrett. :)

I've noticed some flaws too with audioscrobbler. It seems many mp3's have audiotags that doesn't match up with AS and never gets registered at all. One of the main reasons why I gave it up. Pretty nifty plugin anyway.

Could it be that iTunes only counts wholly played songs while AS has it's 150 secs limit before submitting?
 
My Audioscrobbler says Babamars - Younger, but thats only because the song is split into 3 files so the actual most listened to song is Fall Out Boy - Tell That Mick He Just Made My List of Things to Do Today.

My top 10 most played artists of the week are:
1. Armor For Sleep
2. Fall out Boy
3. The Click Five
4. Cold
5.Audioslave
6. Eminem
7. 30 Seconds To Mars
8. Relient K
9. Queens of The Stone Age
10. Nightwish


My Top 10 artists overall are:
1. DJ Shadow with 551 total plays
2. Relient K with 376 total plays
3. Weezer with 364 total plays
4. Fall Out Boy with 307 total plays
5. Blink 182 with 239 total plays
6. Green Day with 215 total plays
7. The Killers with 203 total plays
8. DJ Sammy with 194 total plays
9. DJ Tiesto with 178 total plays
10. Paul Van Dyk/Black Rebel Motorcycle Club both with 150 plays total

I've listened to over 8000 songs in full since September 12th 2004.
 
I don't currently have any way of judging my most popular track (nor do I really care to have one), so I'd guess at it being a Tupac track, not sure which one though.

These are the only stats I have:

Times Player Used: 583
Total Time Player Used: 3 months, 23 days
Tracks Played: 39514
Average Time Player Used: 4 Hours, 40 Minutes, 24 Seconds

edit: Stats since November 2004
 
yeah! you go girl! awsome song that is, one of my most played as well.

In answer to your sig: There was no life. Nothing wrong, nothing right.
 
I've actually got 2 other kaiser chiefs song that keep going round in my head...

Saturday night and Modern way

Won't get out of my head!!
 
Just guessing;
The Faint (w/ Bright Eyes) - Dust
Gamma Ray - New World Order
Manowar - Sign of the Hammer
would probably all be near the top in the last few months.
 
The Widow - The Mars Volta - 23 plays
Mama, I'm Coming Home - Ozzy Osbourne - 23 plays
Brain Damage - Pink Floyd - 23 plays
You Shook Me All Night Long - AC/DC - 22 plays
Don't Cry - Guns N' Roses - 21 plays

And I've listened to A Change Of Seasons 11 times, which I think is my highest time total.
 
Not sure if you guys have heard them since I haven't seen to many country guys here like myself.

Lately its been
Desert Rose Band - One Step Forward
&
Eddie Rabitt - I Love The Rainy Nights
 
This is according to Last.fm based on statistics taken between May 30 and now...
Of course, this doesn't take into account that I was going several weeks in between without realizing that the plugin didn't work... or the fact that I didn't listen to as much music on my computer then as I do now since I was waiting for a new computer and some speakers.

Needless to say, I might be a special exception to the rule with Last.fm - it's incredibly inaccurate for providing a good idea of what I listen to since I have a 17000 song playlist :p

Soundgarden - blow Up The Outside World - 7
Tool - The Grudge - 6
The Who - won't get fooled again - 6
pink floyd - us and them - 5

If I had to make a more accurate guess, it would be the entire album Lateralus by Tool, I've listened to Dark Side Of The Moon, The Wall, and Pulse in their entireity on my mp3 player before most of my exams since last year, and I've listened to a LOT of dream theater over the past few weeks. Dredg has also gotten a lot of play time both on my computer and on my mp3 player lately.
 
Currently my most played song is:

Mastodon - Blood and Thunder

Closely followed by:

Mastodon - Iron Tusk





;)
 
My top three songs from last.fm (Audioscrobbler)

1. In Flames - The Quiet Place-95
2. Soilwork - Nerve-70
3. In Flames - Trigger-59
 
According to the counter on iTunes, it's "Do You Remember?" by Jack Johnson. It's Modest Mouse's "Float On", currently though.
