hello.shuffle (prologue)

If you are an avid reader of the Onion AV Club, then you probably have read the feature called ‘Random Rules.’ If you have no idea what I am talking about then let me explain. Its quite simple: a celebrity is interviewed by hitting random on their iPod (or other mp3 player) and talking about the songs that come up. I like it because it shows not only the good songs someone might have, but also the guilty pleasure songs we are embarrased to have ever bought, but still listen to late at night, alone in our bedrooms, under the covers with shades drawn and the lights off.

We at hellocomein are by no means celebrities (especially because I think we are the only ones reading this blog besides our grandmothers who wonder how the ghost of mice are able to write inside our screens from the afterlife). But I thought it would be fun to imitate the same thing.

A few weeks ago, the three of us hit shuffle on our iPods and wrote about the first 5 songs that came up. Starting tomorrow and for five days straight we will each reveal one song that popped up. If anyone has done similar things let us know. We are curious about your music. So stay tuned…
