Can your Ipod read your mind?

[heyheysg]

Ok here's the thing,

1) I have 4745 songs on my ipod currently
2) It's set on shuffle

I wanted to listen to King of Hollywood (don't ask) but was too lazy to search for it, so I thought I might hit the song maybe later down the day.

Skipped 5 songs and guess what. King of Hollywood

Actually, it does this when I choose a specific band.

Can your I-Pod read your mind?

No, but the #5 button on my car radio seems to grant wishes...

What a lucky break.

My iTunes avoids all the songs I want to listen to with a deadly passion.

I wish so, then I wouldn't have to put myself and other drivers at risk when I want to change songs. But then again, I have so many god damn songs on that thing i can't remember 90% of them anyways. It's kind of neat little suprise when I have it on shuffle and all of a sudden some song I forgot was on there starts playing.

Well it has done that to me a few times....

Those people at apple KNOW TOO MUCH

5 songs later seriously? This actually happens daily to me. I'll hear a song or start humming it and think I wanna hear that one next and BAM it's next. This happens so often I've come to believe I control my Ipod, or Steve Jobs is stealing my brain.

You have no idea....

I have over 5000 on mine, and more often than not, I just think, "I want to hear 'Sweet Child'o'Mine' or 'Somebody to Love'" and THE VERY NEXT SONG ON SHUFFLE will come on O_O

Ah sheet yew not

Yes, im feeling sad after having a fight with a close friend and it plays a load of sad songs.

My iPod can read my mind as well, but it's an evil little bastard and it likes to hide all my good music.

718 songs, the one I want to listen to is the 717th every time, no matter what song. Guess it wants me to stop being lazy and search for it. Or it's the spawn of the Robot Devil.

Maybe you have to focus your psychic energies, depending on the battery strength.

I don't know about the iPod, but I've heard some mp3 players have adaptive playlist technology. So if you always skip the same song, it assigns it a lower priority. And if you always repeat a song, it gets a higher priority. That could skew the probability a little.
