I dare you to shuffle

No, it's not the latest Switchfoot song.

Let's step outside of our comfort zone and shuffle our iPods/MP3 players this weekend. Who's with me? So far I've listened to some Type O Negative, Steve Taylor, Newsboys, Hope for the Dying, and Nocturnal Freeze! What a mash-up! LOL

I go from black metal to Phil Keaggy's "Love Divine"... lol. This is fun. You guys should seriously do it.

Made me listen to some ABBA, Kent (Swedish band), Darkness Divided, Stavesacre, Alice In Chains, Slick Shoes and T. Rex.

I've done this on long car rides (by myself ).  I got a lot of Christmas music and stuff I rated highly (4 or 5 stars).  I don't think the "random" algorithm is really random.

its really tough to go from, This Divided World, to petra, or handels messiah... talk about a mood switch.

I've started shuffling when I mow the lawn.  I like to keep track of the randomness.  Here's last week's list:

Pharoah Sanders “Nancy”
