It’s been a while since the last shuffle-generated listing of my iTouch’s song output. Today, this curious sequence came out:

Two Britney Spears remixed tracks to start, followed by a couple of Michael Jackson classics (one remixed and one from the Jackson 5 era). It’s almost like the two pop superstars decided to go to war, right on my music player! And in the midst of that high-voltage pop playback, one-hit wonder Noel somehow snuck into the mix.

And with that, let’s roll the last five songs to randomly tick up in my earbuds, along with a semi-cryptic lyric snippet from each:

1. “Circus (A Crowd Electric Remix)”, Britney Spears - I’m running this.

2. “Womanizer (Mr. Vega Combined Power Rework)”, Britney Spears - Baby you got all the puppets with their strings up.

3. “Thriller (Villains Thrilla Remix)”, Michael Jackson - Tonight.

4. “Silent Morning”, Noel - I’m on fire.

5. “I Want You Back”, Jackson 5 - Every street you walk on, I leave tear stains on the ground.

  1. It was only a few years ago I caught up with “Silent Morning.” A very jaunty song with a very scary undertone.

  2. Agreed. A danceclub standard for years, and not even out of place today. It gets me right from that “I’m on fire” opening.

  4. Hey Mr. Vega! That “Combined Power Rework” is actually my Frankenstein creation: I joined your standard Womanizer remix with your Womanizer Power Remix to make a long-play (7 minutes, 20 seconds) track. Nothing fancy, just tacked the Power version onto the end of the first remix. Good stuff.
