So, I was perusing my itunes library earlier and thought that my list of most played songs was interesting. I use itunes primarily to download singles, mostly one-offs by people I like but would never buy their records, but sometimes by people I also like, but just download a song for whatever reason. I also load records onto it for the purposes of making mix CD's, and for putting it on shuffle in my kitchen when I'm cooking or cleaning.
I thought you might enjoy a little glimpse into my listening habits when it comes to singles on itunes.

I know, that's a ridiculous list. I can't believe I even admitted to some of those..... I'm also not sure how accurate it is. For instance, I downloaded "Hallelujah" by Jeff Buckley after they used it on the season finale of The OC and I bawled my eyes out, and I know I've listened to it more than 4 times, but that's how many times itunes says I have. Weird. Not sure how all that works. Irregardless, I don't think that list is too off the mark on the number of times I've listened to those songs.

I can't believe no one has commented on this yet. It's not like they could be that embarrassed for you. Really, though, it's a good list. Some of those very songs have rather high play counts on my iTunes, too. :)
But I don't entirely trust iTunes when it comes to play counts, either. Like, there are songs I know I've listened to on my iPod, and yet iTunes claims I haven't played them at all.
And like I said, I'm stealing this idea.
"Smokey Mountain Rain" is outstanding! I love that you have that on your iPod.
Also, I never realized how brilliant "Africa" was until you started playing it a few years back. It's so well crafted.
