themusicaddict's Top 100 + 2 All-time iTunes Played List, (Part 3) (Updated May 25th, 2014)

Hello,

Updated as "You Don't Bring Me Flowers" received another listen and moved into the songs tied for 60th place.

This is my Top 100 + 1 songs that have been played on my iTunes,  it started on August 29th, 2011. This comes from my iTunes and even I'm surprised about some of the songs on this list. The number of Taylor Swift are a bit skewed because my two middle kids and I went and saw her in concert. At that time they were getting the songs for their iPods from my iTunes. I loaded their iPods with a lot of Ms. Swift's songs. Many songs benefit from being on my Sunday Music playlist, that list contains about 1,600 songs. Plus the 830 songs on my iPod have a much better chance of racking up listens obviously.

Also as most of you probably notice when you listen to iTunes on shuffle, the shuffle seems to favor the same few hundred songs. There's also a lot of 80s songs on here as well, because well I'm old. Plus as iTunes is a living thing and constantly changing, so will this list. When a song in my top 100 plays I'll update my blog accordingly.

All these songs are tied for 60th on my iTunes Most Played List with 26 listens:

U2's "Elevation":



Travis Tritt's "Help Me Hold On":



The Tokens "The Lion Sleeps Tonight (Wimoweh)":



Tim McGraw "Don't Take The Girl":



This is just such a great song. Tenacious D's "Tribute" ("This is not the greatest song in the world, this is a tribute".):



Taylor Swift's "Mine":



Taylor Swift's "Breathe":



Stan Ridgway's "Camouflauge" (It's not acceptable to have the 5 minute version, you need to have all 7 minutes of this song. The ending of this song gives me goosebumps every time.):



Lady Antebellum's "American Honey":



The incredibly sweet, but sad song "Daisy" by Halfway To Hazard:



Although "American Idol" peaked with Season 7 and is a mere shadow of it's former self there still are the occasional great singer following Season 7. Crystal Bowersox is one of those and I love her cover of the Buffalo Springfield classic "For What Its Worth":



Colbie Caillat's "Oxygen":



B.J. Thomas' "Raindrops Keep On Falling On My Head":



Barbara Striesand and Neil Diamond's "You Don't Bring Me Flowers":
