A little more than a week ago, I upgraded my phone from the iPhone 4S to the newly released iPhone 5S. The biggest difference, aside from a slightly bigger screen, is the jump from 3G (or 4G, if you believe AT&T’s hype) to LTE. I had the 4S for a little under 2 years, and in that time, we traveled the world together (well, at least going back to the UK) and have listened to a lot of podcasts and music. Here is every song (all 2079 of them) I’ve listened to on the phone, with some (ok, very little) bonus commentary. Godspeed.

Let’s Go-Go-Go White Sox	Captain Stubby and the Buccaneers		33
He’s a Pirate	Klaus Badelt	Pirates of the Caribbean (Soundtrack from the Motion Picture)	32
Take Me Out To The Ballgame	Harry Caray		31
Thunderstruck	AC/DC	The Razors Edge	31
Gordon Beckham Intro			29
Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye	Steam	Billboard’s Top Rock ‘n’ Roll Hits: 1969	29
Don’t Stop Believin’	Journey	Journey’s Greatest Hits	27
sox05_montage			27
We Are The Champions	Queen	Queen: Greatest Hits I & II	27
Your Love	The Outfield	Play Deep	27
2008 White Sox Central Division Champs Montage	Chris Tannehill	WSCR 670 The Score	25
Take Me Out To The Ballgame	Nancy Faust		25
Harvester Of Sorrow	Metallica	…And Justice For All	20

You would hope that these numbers would have been higher, but this past season’s miserable performance by the White Sox has put the songs on their playlist out of mind more often than not.

Cannonball	The Breeders	The First 1000 Years- Rock	19
Man Or Muppet	Jason Segel	The Muppets	15
It’s Time For Our Song	Miss Piggy	The Muppets	14
Get Out There And Help Those Guys	Jason Segel	The Muppets	13
Main Title	LOST Soundtrack	LOST Soundtrack	13
Are You A Man Or A Muppet?	Amy Adams	The Muppets	12
How Charming, A Finale	Uncle Deadly	The Muppets	12
I’m On A Boat (ft. T-Pain)	The Lonely Island	Incredibad	12
Down At The Ole Barbershop	Kermit	The Muppets	11
Me and Drugs	David Cross	Bigger and Blackerer	11
The Antichrist	Howard Stern	Private Parts: The Album	11

Goodbye, iPhone 3G – Music Edition

As I wait for tomorrow’s delivery of my new iPhone 4S, it is time to say goodbye to the 3G that has been my trusty companion for nearly the past 3 1/2 years. We’ve traveled the world together (well, at least Canada and the UK) and have listened to a lot of music. Here is every song (all 1597 of them) I’ve listened to on the phone, with some (ok, very little) bonus commentary!

He’s a Pirate	Klaus Badelt	Pirates of the Caribbean (Soundtrack from the Motion Picture)	100
Gordon Beckham Intro			91
Let’s Go-Go-Go White Sox	Captain Stubby and the Buccaneers		87
Thunderstruck	AC/DC	The Razors Edge	84
Na Na Hey Hey Kiss Him Goodbye	Steam	Billboard’s Top Rock ‘n’ Roll Hits: 1969	83
sox05_montage			75
We Are The Champions	Queen	Queen: Greatest Hits I & II	73
Boom	P.O.D.	Satellite	70
Don’t Stop Believin’	Journey	Journey’s Greatest Hits	69
2008 White Sox Central Division Champs Montage	Chris Tannehill	WSCR 670 The Score	65

No surprise that the top 10 are all part of (or were part of) my White Sox victory playlist. This gets played on the way home from every White Sox winner, plus the occassional ride to a game. Continue reading →
