Wow - U2 fell to fourth.  I hadn't noticed that.  As longs as smackette and I keep entertaining folks, Nouvelle Vague will continue to lead.  There's no better background music for any party.

I was sort of shocked to see myself at the top of this thread, given the low level of interest I usually inspire here (except in Markie, who has a high level of interest in wanting to beat me up)..
 
 As for Ivy... Bags I love Ivy too, but that got to the top of the list because I went out for a long period once, more than a day, and forgot Itunes on with my 2 Ivy albums on repeat.   :)

I bought a used copy of Pantera's "Far Beyond Driven" once on a roadtrip thinking it would be a really good way to make some miles and the disc (with all of the Pantera artwork printed right there on it) turned out to have the record "Apartment Life" by Ivy on it...

 But by the way, while we're on the topic of music (and summery powerpop, for that matter), every one of you should purchase the new record "Nighttiming" by Coconut Records on iTunes.  Just saying   :)

So are these counts the number of times people have listened to a song my that particular band?
 
 If so, the totals seem really high. I would think that people have so many albums that it would be very hard to get anywhere near 400+ listens of any one band...I know I probably dig out any one all time favorite album maybe a coupld of times a year.

yes, its me. my girlfriend likes the Keane and thats probably how it got so high.  (really its only 60-some songs)

That's what it's supposed to be, but I'm actually pretty sure it is even less than that...
 it's not too hard at all.  I've had my account for well over a year, maybe two, maybe three, and the stuff adds up

yeah, i have apparently listened to over 10,000 songs and my top artist is what? 150?  
 
  plus, last.fm doesnt count what i  play in my car. which is more hip hop than rock (i blast hip hop in the city here so the brothers think i am cool and dont carjack me!)

if you've been scrobbling for two years and have your itunes running for 10 hours a day at work (often on shuffle), and have the entire catalogues of some very prolific artists, the play counts can add up. hence:
 
 1     Bob Dylan      3,660
 2    The Fall    3,153

Not a bad guess, Kosmo. I am an unabashed fan of Radiohead, Sparklehorse, Muse, and The New Pornographers, but, surprisingly, none of those are in my top 15 on Last.fm. The closest is The New Pornographers who are currently at #16.... My last.fm rankings tend to reflect my concert-going, and, sadly, I haven't been to a Radiohead concert in far too long. Too bad there's no last.fm scrobbler for my car's CD changer.  :)  Anyway, my list was posted in the previous thread on this topic....

Did they ever come up with a decent, easy plugin to pull the recently played tracks off of an iPod and import them into last.fm?  90% of my listening is done at work or at the gym.
