iPod inspection: The last five songs you played!

Categories: Music, iPod Inspection

Inxs_lIt’s been about five months since we performed the ultimate test of your current musical mood. So grab your iPod (or other music-playing device) and ‘fess up: What were the last five songs you played?

Mine is a random mix of "recently added" tunes, and dare I say, not quite as embarrassing as my usual fare. (Yeah, yeah, I know…you’ll be the judge of that.) Either way, mad props to colleagues Annie Barrett and Dave Karger for helping me get hip to the last track (and artist) on my list. Catch the can’t-miss embedded video, after the jump!

INXS (pictured), "Mystify"
Vanessa Williams, "Happiness"
Total, "Trippin’"
Imani Coppola, "Springtime"
Róisín Murphy, "Overpowered"
