108,491 songs in the last 3.5 years

So, I have been using last.fm to track what I listen to since April 2006.

According to my profile, I listened to 108,491 songs.

Assuming that the average song is 3:30-4:00 minutes long, that makes for 263-301 days of nonstop music playing in the last 1,275 days (approximate).

So about 20% of my life for the last few years has had music playing in the background.

Wow.

If I'm awake for about 16 hours a day, that means I listen to music about 3 hours a day, or so. When you put it that way, it doesn't sound quite so bad.

Feel free to correct my math.





My top artists are:

1. Iron & Wine (2,003 plays)
2. The Mountain Goats (1,814 plays)
3. Death Cab for Cutie (1,783)
4. Radiohead (1,718 plays)
5. The Beatles (1,648 plays)
