Let's do an experiment, shall we?  Let's all post our five 'most listened to' songs on iTunes in the comments here WITH the play count.  I'll go first. 

5. "Rebellion (Lies)" The Arcade Fire - 204 Plays

4. "When You Were Young" The Killers - 239 Plays

3. "Rocks Off" The Rolling Stones - 278 Plays

2. "You Are The Generation That Bought More Shoes" Johnny Boy - 353 Plays

And, embarrassingly, the top spot goes to...

1. "Welcome To The Black Parade" My Chemical Romance - a shameful, yet impressive, 426 Plays.

Now you go...
