My playlist is out of date, just to remind myself how old I am. :D

After updating my device’s operating system to iOS5, all of the iPod’s information and data were restored except the music. This is a big problem for me since I don’t put the music to iTunes’ library first then transfer it to the iPod. Yes, I directly drag the mp3′s to the iPod.

Now I can’t remember all the contents of my iPod before, though I managed to put back some music I used to listen before I updated. But then I realized these are all old and when the kids at my org ask me to put up some mix for a particular event, I have to ask someone else to get some new and latest music for me to play on their events.

My favorites are usually instrumental background music from movies. I usually get these from the movies I watch and also some background music used by the BBC UK Show, Top Gear. Some were from Japanese anime and I try to get instrumental versions because I like them more than someone singing along. I also get the orchestra versions of some songs, and get the high quality versions of them, sometimes loss less format. I do listen to some good songs before, like The Corrs and more old generation music. But of course, I ran out of ideas as I can’t remember all good songs when I was still 10 or 15 years old.

My teacher let me listen to The Script. Actually, my older brother introduced me to this group way before it became famous here in the Philippines. Their songs were good then I did not know that they released a new album in the year 2010 and my teacher let me listen to the song “Science and Faith” and it was soooooo good.

Yes, forgive me for being old but if it’s ok you can give me ideas for good songs. I also listen to some of the songs being played on the series “House M.D.” as some of the songs there are quite good. Though, talking about series, I’m not really a big fan of Glee and their versions of some songs. I am more fan of those artists who dare to perform in Japan. Why? Japanese people don’t want you to go on concert at their place and let them here the same piece of music they hear on your album. What they want is to make that particular music of yours so special that you can actually distinguish it from your album. That’s why I love Japan performances.

I do also listen to some party songs (and actually, that’s what I need for the events) but I don’t put all of them to my iPod. Some music are just giving me migraine, with the beat as well as the lyrics.

So anyone, ideas?
