Very eclectic. I like that.
Not sure about the bagpipe melody but sure, why not? Maybe you have some parties and like to tease your guests.
I have a bunch of songs on my list that drive guests to the brink of insanity. I’ll have to look up the bagpipe song.

FWIW, I had a bunch of vinyl and cassettes. Then I converted to CDs. Then I ripped my CDs to MP3. Then I put my MP3s into iTunes. Then iTunes made duplicates and triplicates of every song each time I upgraded computers. I got so annoyed by iTunes software that I just got a Spotify account.

Only later did I learn how to prevent iTunes from making duplicates. It’s just a checkbox but man did that drive me nuts. So I stick with Spotify now. Only annoying thing is with Spotify is that I got my wife an account (multi user) but unlike say Netflix or Amazon when you got multi user accounts all the playlists show up on all the log ins. It was not like Netflix etc does it, where my wife has her own favorites and history and login it was all mixed together. Maybe they changed that. I tried to get her her own login, which they seem to have added, but she can’t get it to work (I may have to intervene). So now when I go to Spotify I get all her ridiculous playlists she built and have to filter through those.

If there is a way to transfer them over I’d pay double just to get rid of her party lists and her emotional mood soundtracks off my account. At least with TV streaming all her murder shows don’t show up on my log in and my movies don’t show up in hers. But Spotify screwed me almost as bad as Apple with that. At least my wife and I have similar tastes in music, but her special party mixes (eg “Stephanie’s birthday mix” which she was charged with creating) will be gone from my account. I may just go in and delete them especially “Stephanie’s party mix” which neither of us listen to - since the party was years ago!
