iTunes Amnesia
Lately, I’ve been trying to get back in touch with the music world after taking about a year hiatus while getting into the groove of motherhood. One of the first steps I took was to see what was in my iTunes library, and tried out the new Genius feature that will recommend things to you based upon what you already have in your library.
It was during one of these perusals of my iTunes library that I discovered that I must have had a momentary lapse of sanity on several occasions, because there are quite a few songs that I do not recall downloading at all there. At first, I thought I could blame one of my late night bouts of insomnia and heartburn during my pregnancy (and therefore the cause was obviously “pregnancy brain”), but no, the songs were all downloaded BEFORE I got pregnant. So, I’m at a loss as to what happened.
Here are the ones I have no memory of downloading:
- “The Human Hosepipe” by Harry and the Potters (I’m blaming this one on Kari)
- “Hysteria,” “Supermassive Black Hole,” and “Starlight” by Muse (I’m thinking I’m going to have to blame my emo/goth/intellectual alter ego for these)
- “Angel” by Aerosmith (WHAT THE HELL?)
- “Ana’s Song” by Silverchair (I… have no good explanation.)
- “Song 2″ by Blur (WOOHOO!)
Has anyone else had this happen? Oh, just me? That’s what I thought.
