I have been having some trouble recently with my iTouch, so I decided to wipe it clean and restore it to the original settings, which means all my music, videos and pictures are gone. It was late in the evening when I did this and I was too tired to start putting music back on, so I went to bed.
This morning I was sad at the thought of not having any music to play at work, so I quickly downloaded our “purchased” folder from our iTunes library without looking to see what was in the folder. What an education I received today when I began playing the music. About 95% of the songs were ones that my daughters had purchased. Here is what I had to listen to all day today:
- Akon featuring Eminem
- Aly & A.J.
- Mamma Mia Soundtrack
- Ashley Tisdale
- Carrie Underwood
- Chris Brown
- Corbin Bleu
- High School Musical 3 Soundtrack
- David Archuleta
- Camp Rock Soundtrack
- How to Eat Fried Worms Soundtrack
- Theme from Scarface (my husband’s purchase)
- Emily Osment
- Hannah Montana
- Jason Mraz
- Jesse McCartney
- Nancy Drew Soundtrack
- JoJo
- Jonas Brothers
- Jordin Sparks
- Kellie Pickler
- Lady Ga Ga
- Leona Lewis
- Miley Cyrus
- Sara Bareilles
- Selena Gomez
- Sugarland
- Taylor Swift
- Vanessa Hudgens
- Weird Al Yankovic (no one claims to have purchased this song)
I’m not saying that these artists aren’t good; but just not exactly what this 40 year-old woman wanted to listen to all day. Think I will wipe it clean – again.
I can just see you getting motivated by Eminem.
I know the feeling. My iPod is the catch-all. I get all the kids’ music and occassionally listen to see what they are enjoying. Often, it is painful.
