I`d still like to see your first 5.

Sorry if it`s a hassle

Why would I listen to music randomly? Besides, mplayer doesn't have such a feature, and I can't be bothered with bash scripting right now.

[nothingspecial]

I`m just looking for new music.

I thought this would be a good way.

No cheating, coz I want random music.

That`s 2 can`t be bothered posts.

If you can`t be bothered, great, I don`t care, get on with your life.

I just want a list of random tunes and thought this would be a fun way to do it.

Well, seeing as how I've decided that writing a bash script to pick a random .ogg file would be too labour-intensive to satisfy you, I've taken the liberty of using a method that isn't as random but I hope will satisfy you. Namely, I've had a script create a list of all my .ogg files in a plaintext file, then I opened the file in vim and started deleting random lines (by randomly pecking at the numeric keyboard) until only five were left. Enjoy!
