While making some purchases on iTunes... Celine Dion's unintentionally hilarious version of "Feliz Navidad" and Carrie Underwood's delicious (and decidedly non-vanilla) bad-girl turn with "Before He Cheats"... I stumbled across the Top 100 Best Selling Songs on iTunes for 2006.
I figured it would be fun to count how many of the songs we own.
Well, the fun didn't last too long!
I was feeling pretty hip that we had 5 of Top 11... but then we could only scrape up 9 more in the next 89 songs! Ouch!
I think the music you like tells a lot about you.
What this says, I don't know... besides not having my finger on the pulse of popular American music and/or turning into a crusty curmudgeon (what kind of gosh-darn music are these crazy kids listening to these days!).
Here are the songs that made up the 14% overlap of our music library and the bestseller list (iTunes 2006 sales rank in parentheses).
