Weirdest playlist?

Okay, fess up: What's the strangest list you got going?

I have one that just pulls the 13th track from every album.
One that culls everything with a 'Z' in it.
One for Metallica covers (String quartets, Pat Boone, Vienna Boys Choir)
A list of the shortest songs (150 full length, each less than 1MB)

and my oddest:
Chicken Songs

You?

      Great! I have a collection of what I call "full coverage" songs. 15 versions of "eleanor rigby" of example. Not something I listen to everyday of course......:-)
      If you want to bend the rules a bit - John Mellancamp's "Authority Song" is basically "I fought the law" with a better guitar riff.

      in an effort for a friend, I made him a mix of "Total Eclipse of the Heart". Now before you get the wrong idea, we have been swapping "pure torture" mixes back and forth, so this was just another installment.

      I also collect "Hallelujah" by Leonard Cohen. I think I've got about a dozen, but there are reportedly 156 recorded versions.

        I keep pretty simple, straight-forward playlists. Just my gym mix and audiobook selections on investing and real estate. I did start one called Little Epics that was supposed to be songs that sounded big and huge but were actually quite short, like Pat Benetar's We Belong and Paul McCartney's Band on the Run. I ditched it, though. Seemed silly.

      You don't have the original Bobby Fuller version? It's available on itunes.

        Little Epics, I like it! Very Phil Spector-ish. My latest is Sports Songs, for going to and from baseball games. :-) Any ideas?
        Oh, and Bobby Fuller was a hell of a surf guitarist BTW.
