Not So Random
I recently loaded my complete mp3 collection in one WinAmp playlist, all 5000+ songs, and set it on random.
Sometimes, I think the random engine has a mind of it's own. For example: after it plays Nirvana's Lithium, the next track is Hole's Celebrity Skin. Or it plays a Fifty Cent song twice in 15 minutes (it's on two mix cds, so twice in the playlist).
I'd like to think there is a little sprite named Gary that is responsible for picking songs for me and that he has his own preferences and biases.
Or, you know, it could just be coincidence.
