rob was here.

Keeping with tradition, I post the statistics of my listening habits at the end of the year.

For archives sake, here are the posts for 2007 and 2006.

I will do something different this year. Normally I post just my statistics encompassing all recorded songs to date, but this year I will break it out into the "everything-to-date" statistics and the "just 2008" statistics.

Rob's Entire Recorded Listening Habits To Date (3 years, ordered by song playcount):

1	Modest Mouse		1,204
2	Nirvana		575
3	Cake		413
4	The White Stripes		248
5	The Offspring		235
6	Syd Barrett		225
