The wonkiness of Spotify aside, my simple shuffle method from iTunes works wonders in selecting the next Madonna Timeline entry, and for the next one I’m going to give you a behind-the-scenes look at the process of how I randomly go about selecting the next song. When it’s time to write a new timeline, I’ll open up iTunes, choose Madonna, and shuffle it until I hit the most recent timeline entry. In this case that’s ‘Medellin’ – so let’s go there now.
Upon first opening it up, I have to get through a number of songs before reaching the most recent, and they come up randomly. For instance, in this road to ‘Medellin’ we hit the following:
‘Bad Girl’
‘Hollywood’
‘Ghosttown’
‘Crazy’
‘Hanky Panky’
‘Thief of Hearts’
‘Living For Love’
‘Sorry’
Then up popped ‘Medellin’, which means the first unchronicled song after this point is the next Madonna Timeline entry. Let’s see which ones we have to get through before a new song is determined:
‘Candy Shop’
‘Beat Goes On’
‘Into the Groove’
Oh damn, we hit a new song already.
‘Waiting’ from the ‘Erotica’ album.
Oh well, you’re gonna have to wait for it, because this was supposed to be a long-ass holding place.
