In an effort to better understand the players on the Pro Circuit, we asked some random “pros” to show us what was playing on their iPods. In the interest of unfairness and comedic embarrassment, we demanded that they put the iPods on shuffle and give us the first three hits.

Niles Rowland: “That’s embarrassing.”

Weezer — Holiday

Al Green — Let’s Stay Together

30 Seconds to Mars — Welcome to the Universe

Patrick Yapjoco: “Don’t put the Nick Cannon one.”

Guns ‘N Roses — Welcome to the Jungle

Kanye West — Jesus Walks

Nick Cannon featuring R. Kelly — Gigolo

Phimus Pan: “Yeah, this isn’t my iPod, I swear.”

Coldplay — Green Eyes

Hoobastank — Up and Gone

Blink 182 — Always

TBS: “This doesn’t seem fair.” 

Tenacious D — Karate Schnitzel

Radiohead — Bullet Proof. . . (I Wish I Was)

Dido — Here with Me

Kim Caton: “Play. Play. Play. Play!” (Kim was very confused by this “shuffle” concept.)

Nine Inch Nails —  Something I Can Never Have

Stabbing Westward — So Far Away

U2 — Where the Streets Have No Name

Anand Khare: “I’ve never done this before.”

Cake — Open Book

Stereophonics — Goldfish Bowl

Radiohead — Black Star

Erik Cabanero: “Oh gawd . . .”

Nickelback — Animals

Maroon 5 — Must Get Out

Black Eyed Peas — My Humps

“This is, by far, the worst iPod of the bunch.” — Patrick Sullivan
