First, a bit of background:
Last year I upgraded my phone. My Nokia N73 was everything I wanted in a phone (phone, PDA, MP3 player, camera) and I had been very happy with it for about a month. Unfortunately there was an incident which involved a cat, my phone and a large, sweet cup of tea and the N73 was never the same after that. It still works as a phone, so is handy as a backup. Anyway, long story short, I had no insurance or spare cash so was stuck with it until my contract was up, which was last June. As you can imagine, I was pretty excited when June came around - partly also because of the July wedding - and I did lots of research and opted for the N95 8Gb as it does everything the N73 did but substantially better and with added Wi-fi connectivity and a much better camera. So far I haven't been disappointed, although it has just been fixed under warranty after all the keys stopped responding..
I have (at the moment) 430 tracks on the phone, and a tape adaptor for the car stereo, so when I've got the car (Tracy & I have one car between us now) I plug my phone in, set it to "shuffle" and press play... sometimes it seems to have a mind of it's own and almost play to a theme. I have a wide range of music on there, from dance to heavy rock, so it's quite surprising when it picks out four or five tracks that go together reasonably well.
This mornings offerings were quite good:
The Psychedelic Furs - Pretty in Pink
Lene Lovich - Bird Song
Tanita Tikaram - Twist in my Sobriety
The Damned - Eloise
Ultravox - Sleepwalk
The Kinks - You Really Got Me
and finally, and somewhat incongruously, The Prodigy - No Good (Start The Dance) (Bad For Yo mix) from More Music For the Jilted Generation
Interesting mix. Wonder what it will play on my way home?
