But before i begin my eternal long chain of posts on my past three weeks, i felt like posting a last.fm milestone list here. Seeing Sesam’s is what poked me to post mine. It can’t fetch my oldest plays (before the 10000th), so these are the prime-thousand-th plays from that point. Here you go.

- 13000th: Opeth – Reverie/Harlequin Forest (080408)

- 83000th: The Clash – The Magnificent Seven (100902)
This with 85094 plays right now, and as far as i can tell the only song appearing twice on the 1000th-milestones chart more than once is Opeth’s Reverie/Harlequin Forest (twice). Yeah, i do love that song.
Also interesting is that back in 2008 it took a month or so to get 1000 plays, while nowadays i get that in less than a week.
