I have has a Last.Fm account since 12th November 2004 and been a subscriber since April 2006.
At one time I never used the ‘Loved tracks’ feature but recently I’ve started clicking more regularly.
The recent selection shows Bob Dylan is still a dominant force with one original and two covers. I’ve also been listening a lot to Jeff Buckley having belatedly bought the legacy edition of Grace.
The Calexico and Charalambides tracks are long standing favourites and I don’t know why it has taken me so long to officially love them.
This is the list with links to Last.Fm track pages.
I Hate The Beach – Psychedelic Horseshit
The Cause Of Labour Is The Hope Of The World – Jóhann Jóhannsson
Lilac Wine – Jeff Buckley
Mama, You Been On My Mind – Jeff Buckley
North of Me (At Midday) – Fabio Orsi
Crystal Frontier – Calexico

Sometimes I wish I could love songs two or three times because I love some more than others. And having had about 5 LFM accounts, I forget what I’ve loved and so lots of songs go unloved, even though I love them. And then there are the songs I love for a short time and those I will always love… it’s a minefield. How can one heart icon possibly convey what we feel about music? I ask you. Perhaps the most played track chart is a better indicator – but then again, my playlist is all messed up because I had to take a lot of CD stuff off iTunes before I subscribed last time (and discovered the upload playlist trick). So it mostly only reflects my MP3 listening… this is fascinating, no?
