i spent a while trying to make my itunes library perfect, so that i could simply hit shuffle and sit back. then i realized that i could simply make a playlist with a bunch of my favourite songs, so i did that... 56 songs: 3hrs and 36 minutes of stuff that i won't have to worry about skipping if it's awful or jarring. excellent!
i have come to hate indie rock! i read this just now, and got so unhappy. kate bush got 5 votes for 'miss indie rock'! oh christ, grow up! there is a point when people grow out of indie-anything, be it rock or pop or zines or all that stuff. i did it in the spring of 2003. just chill out, kids, get down with post-modernism! love it all!
here's a song: looking glass, brandy (you're a fine girl)
it's only 3 minutes, and there's no penalty for deleting it if you don't like it.

The way to do it is to rate your songs, then set the party shuffle to play songs from 'my top rated'. When you get new music and don't know whether you'll like it or not, set it at 3 stars, and then later on you can adjust up or down accordingly. Songs with a rating of two or less won't appear in the 'my top rated' playlist and hence, won't end up on your party shuffle, meanwhile songs with a 4 or 5 will appear most often in the party shuffle.
