HITS

Hey dudes and dudette,

As far as a hit goes, I think we could either take a scientific approach, which would be seeing what songs have been chart toppers or what albums have gone platinum or double or triple platinum or whatever....or.. we could use a more subjective approach and ask questions to determine a hit. For instance, when you think of a hit, is it a song that most everyone will have heard or heard of....? If so, it's probably a hit. Is it a song you would recognize on the radio despite not knowing what it's called or who sings it? Does simply being played on the radio make a song a hit?

I think that both methods have legitimacy and should be incorporated in our research tactics. I agree that we should each take an artist and go further to see just how well their work conforms to the fibonacci sequence.


p.s. Can't wait for Xmas woooohoo!
