24. kidicarlevel1 ~ kid icarus 12
25. Defender ~ Manowar 12

Not a lot of big changes from the last list; same 5 songs in the Top 5. The most interesting mover is the Joe Satriani tune at number 9, which hadn't been in the top 25 at all previously. Great song.

There was actually a 12-way tie for 21st place for tunes with 12 plays (whoa... if only a Rush song was one of them...). Here are the seven that got cut out of the Top 25 purely for alphabetical reasons:

The Crown and the Ring ~ Manowar 12
Watch The Children Pray ~ Metal Church The Dark 12
Fight the Power ~ Public Enemy 12
It's Hard to Turn Me On ~ Quasi 12
Institutionalized (original Version) ~ Suicidal Tendencies 12
Lay It On The Line ~ Triumph 12
U Can't Hold No Groove ~ Victor Wooten 12

It's weird; I've become more conscious of a song's Play Count now when grabbing songs from the Library for listening. I'm doing my best to keep it from affecting my choices though; I still try to pick songs according to my mood/whim/random shuffle/etc.
Next Top 25 list in about 4 weeks.
