I haven't looked at my last.fm in ages, but apparently I have played 83,802 songs since October 16, 2005. (That's an average of about 80 songs a day.)

It appears last.fm now displays your top artists as a gallery, 18 on a page. Let's see your top 18!

1. Iron Maiden (3889 plays)
2. Frank Zappa (3040 plays)
3. Dream Theater (2086 plays)
4. Kiss (2037 plays)
5. Judas Priest (1589 plays)
6. Rush (1347 plays)
7. The Who (1230 plays)
8. The Rolling Stones (1185 plays)
9. Ludwig van Beethoven (1177 plays)
10. Led Zeppelin (1144 plays)
11. Aerosmith (1139 plays)
12. Genesis (1136 plays)

15. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1039 plays)
16. AC/DC (1024 plays)
17. Metallica (954 plays)
18. Van Halen (876 plays)


If we guess that the average Maiden song is about 5 minutes, then I've spent 2 weeks of my life listening to Maiden. (And last.fm probably only covers about one third of all the Maiden I've heard. :bigsmile:)
 
Nice one SMX :) And hi, since I write on this board after many months from the last time.
It says that I listened to 6183 songs since 17 december 2006, with an average of 6 songs a day.
What can I say about these statistics? Many songs missing because I often forget to configure the audioscrobbler plugin of the players I use, but the order of the bands I listen to reflects quite nicely (with some surprises) the real one, at least in the first ten positions.

1. Iron Maiden (1,585)
2. Marillion (291)
3. Deep Purple (282)
4. Thin Lizzy (226)
4. Black Sabbath (226)
6. Bruce Dickinson (223)
7. Dream Theater (206)
8. Tribe of Gypsies (188)
9. Judas Priest (165)
10. Blind Guardian (109)
11. Sieges Even (106)
12. Opeth (96)
12. Robert Plant (96)
14. Savatage (88)
15. Mark Knopfler (79)
16. Whitesnake (75)
17. Def Leppard (66)
18. Heaven & Hell (64)

And, no, I haven't a favourite band.... :innocent:

I've got such a great musical taste, if I wasn't me, I'd want to be me.

EDIT: For the fun of it, I've added an asterisk for every time I've seen a particular artist live. Queen was obviously as "Queen + Paul Rodgers" and Black Sabbath was as "Heaven & Hell".

I've always had a little bit of a soft spot for the Priest. ;)

That's an interesting one. Not typical Metal Church, but very good indeed! Also my favourite.
And I already knew that we both think that "South of Heaven" is the best Slayer record.
