Le Sonik? He's the only one, I think, with a hard on for Midlake. If that's correct I've spent way too much time lurking here.

So are these counts the number of times people have listened to a song my that particular band?

If so, the totals seem really high. I would think that people have so many albums that it would be very hard to get anywhere near 400+ listens of any one band…I know I probably dig out any one all time favorite album maybe a coupld of times a year.

yes, its me. my girlfriend likes the Keane and thats probably how it got so high. (really its only 60-some songs)

i dont think Keane is bad though, would definitely not say they were one of my top 15 bands!!!

That's what it's supposed to be, but I'm actually pretty sure it is even less than that…
it's not too hard at all. I've had my account for well over a year, maybe two, maybe three, and the stuff adds up

yeah, i have apparently listened to over 10,000 songs and my top artist is what? 150?

plus, last.fm doesnt count what i play in my car. which is more hip hop than rock (i blast hip hop in the city here so the brothers think i am cool and dont carjack me!)

Do Canadians have an unreasonable fear of inner city brothers?

I'm never afraid of being carjacked when I drive downtown.

if you've been scrobbling for two years and have your itunes running for 10 hours a day at work (often on shuffle), and have the entire catalogues of some very prolific artists, the play counts can add up. hence:

1 Bob Dylan 3,660
2 The Fall 3,153

Not a bad guess, Kosmo. I am an unabashed fan of Radiohead, Sparklehorse, Muse, and The New Pornographers, but, surprisingly, none of those are in my top 15 on Last.fm. The closest is The New Pornographers who are currently at #16…. My last.fm rankings tend to reflect my concert-going, and, sadly, I haven't been to a Radiohead concert in far too long. Too bad there's no last.fm scrobbler for my car's CD changer. :) Anyway, my list was posted in the previous thread on this topic….

Did they ever come up with a decent, easy plugin to pull the recently played tracks off of an iPod and import them into last.fm? 90% of my listening is done at work or at the gym.

I tried that a while ago, but found it to be kind of a pain. Maybe I'll try it again. Thanks.
