    Whose songs do you have most of in your music library?

    The premise of this thread is simple: find the top artists in your music library, measured by how many of their songs you have.

    Me:

    1. Beatles - 79
    2. Eminem - 77
    3. Bruce Springsteen - 54
    4. Matchbox Twenty - 51
    5. Lonestar - 51
    6. 50 Cent - 50 (How appropriate. )
    7. U2 - 47
    8. Martina McBride - 45
    9. Simon and Garfunkel - 36
    10. Dr. Dre - 29

    Georges Brassens.
    Mostly because he's the only one from whose I have encoded several CDs (legally)

    Nightwish is a close 2nd for exactly the same reason (2 Cds in my lib)

    I have overall much variety in my music library, and only a few songs from each artist.

        Bad Religion at 66, with REM coming in a close second with 60.

          if i truly like a rapper enough to have a hundred of his songs then I'd be buying his albums and not downloading them...

            Definitely, but who's saying these are all downloaded?

            Most of my songs I listed were purchased on CD, except for the live performances/covers/bootlegs which aren't available for purchase.

              Holy ****! 137?????????????? I'm not aware they've made that many. I thought I had about 75% of their songs.

                what if he's dead and his moms sharing his estate with the manager of his record label?

                  Do you have their Tabitha's Secret stuff?
                  Lots of their live covers are really really good (Time after Time, Never Going Back, Don't Let Me Down).

                  Not to mention the incredible studio-acoustics, Push, 3am (the regular acoustic and the amazing piano-solo one), Long Day, etc.

                  The incredible live versions...like the 8-minute long extended version of Long Day with a tiny cover of David Bowie's "Fame" intertwined.

                  There's LOTS out there.

                  I even have the Stanford Harmonics doing an a capella version of "Push"...

                      I don't know the exact numbers, because they're all on CD (still in mp3 form), but I know it's U2, Dave Matthews, Incubus, Our Lady Peace, and Red Hot Chilli Peppers in the top 10.

                          Mmhmm.

                          (TS' "Paint Me Blue" is playing right now )

                          BTW, you might like the country version of "Push" off the Storytellers DVD Extras...

                              Bruckner
