Looking for Love, Truth, and Honesty
iTunes is okay. It’s not great, but it’s functional. The other day I decided to have some fun and see what I could find. Literally. As in searching for certain words within the song data.
When I searched for “Love” I found 627 items, or enough music to span 1.7 days of listening. That’s a lot of love. When I searched for “truth” I only got 29 items for a bare 1.8 hours. I guess love is easier to find than truth. I’m not sure what sort of observation to make from that, so I will move on. 
With truth being so hard to find I expected that honesty would be just as hard. It turns out it’s much worse. Searching for “honest” matched a whopping two songs for a grand total of 7.1 minutes.
What have I learned so far? Love is easy to find, truth is harder, and finding honesty is the toughest of all.
Ironically one of the songs that matched the search term “Honest” was the song “Love, Truth, and Honesty” by Bananarama. They match all three search terms with that one song. Score one for 80’s girl bands.
