I tried filling out this list, and ended up fighting with the Preferences in iTunes. I couldn't figure out how Shuffle was pulling all these songs from my "relaxing" classical album. When I finally sorted it out, I was bored, and the songs were all kinds of non sequitur. I did get Queen's "Princes of the Universe" as my Opening Credits. That was amusing.
