I often use the Genius feature in iTunes to play music for hours. I set it to 100 songs and let it go. But sometimes I'll play a smaller set by simply putting in one word. Today: Train.
I was looking for "Hey, Soul Sister" by Train, but the resulting 10-song mix was so good I just let it play instead of hitting the Genius button:
Alone On A Train - Lelia Broussard
Cabbage Train - Blue Horses
Westbound Train - Julie Moffit
The Train Song - Deana Carter
Hey Soul Sister - Train
Train of Thought - A-Ha
Trains - Jill Sobule
Morning Train (Nine to Five) - Sheena Easton
Love Train / My Girl / Stop, Look Listen / Midnight Train to Georgia - Three Mo' Tenors
The Blue Train - Dolly Parter, Linda Ronstadt, Emmylou Harris (Trio II)
Got a good mix off a keyword in iTunes lately?




i've actually never considered doing a keyword based playlist. it's a great idea though and i will give it a try in the future

City of New Orleans (Arlo Guthrie) is a good tune in the Train vein. Mentions Kankakee a City a couple of hours north of me and a little south of Chicago.
Train in Vain of course (Clash)
Big fan of Snow Crash as well!

Carrie - It's really fun, although sometimes you'll think of a brilliant word and it will pull up like one song - doh!
Tony - Hey, cool suggestions, thanks. :)
