Which songs on your iPod have a 1-star rating I've started rating songs on my iPod as I listen, and while I still have several thousand unrated songs, I have quickly discovered that some songs are simply on there because I'm a completist and must have everything by my favorite artists, no matter how bad. These are getting 1 star. Here's what's on the list now:
Kirky J's B-Sides Remix - Prince (from the Purple Medley) The Luck Of The Irish (Live) - John Lennon (from Acoustic - featuring an appalling verse sung by Yoko - no matter your politics, this song is dreadful)  Just Found Somebody 2 Love - Graham Central Station (from GCS2000 - here because of the Prince input, most of this album will probably end up with 1 star)
Revolution 9 - The Beatles (from The White Album. the only Beatles track I ever skip) I'm sure many more will be joining these four. The interesting thing is that these are all here because of artists I love (Prince, Lennon, Beatles), since they're the ones I'm completist about - if I didn't need to have everything by these artists, you can bet these tracks would not be on here in the first place... So what's on your 1-star list? | |

Of the songs I've rated in my iTunes, only two have a one star rating:
Tori Amos - Me And A Gun The Mission - Sour Puss  | |

I just started rating songs, didn't realize what a good way it is to dump crappy tracks. Here's my quick list (and you just reminded me to dump them!)
Forty Winks The Herbaliser (preview) Built to Spill Motivation Song G Strings Rain Forest Lowkey Deeper And Deeper (Junior's 2004 Mix) Who's That Girl + Holiday Fantasy Madonna & Orbit Germs Burn For Darby Crash Matmos N.Y. State Of Mind Pt. II Nas Greatest Show On Earth f/ Macy Gray Cut.Db-Polite Society Si Fade Solu Music Feat. Kimblee It's Better to Have Loved (Guy Sigsworth Mix) Older They Might Be Giants Wig Master Xiu Xiu [2006] Bad Politics Yo La Tengo Dreams Yo La Tengo It's funny to look at this list. Things I don't like, apparently: endless, unchanging house grooves, rappers who use the word "faggot" (Nas, that's you), and too-wanky art rock. [Edited 10/20/06 4:59am] | |

i don't give anything star ratings. clutters things up. i also delete the the songwriter, genre, etc. fields as well. [Edited 10/20/06 21:39pm] "I don't need your forgiveness, cos I've been saved by Jesus, so fuck you." | |

[Edited 10/20/06 21:39pm] I never did either, until I figured out you can do it on the fly on the Ipod, and then it updates your computer's music collection. Then you can sort and dump. | |

There are some albums that I've ripped or downloaded where i don't like a few tracks, so this is a good way to weed down a 20 gb music collection to only stuff I really love. Anyway, guess it's not that exciting.  [Edited 10/21/06 22:10pm] | |

Excatly. I have a little Ipod Shuffle. I have no room for filler. 4 and 5 on mine. Even if I get a good one, I wouldn't put anything I didn't really like on it. | |

i mean you do have the option of it not being on there, dont'choo?. i only have 3 or above on mines. I actually read the thread wrong. My ipod shuffle has NO songs below four stars (it's filled with bootleg Prince). The one star songs are on my computer. | |
