iPod continuity
When I was in radio they used to preach continuity, you know, never follow a female artist with another female artist and make sure the "feel" of the songs flow.
Today, listening to my iPod, I got "Shot From the Heart" by the Dicks followed by "You are my Sunshine" from the OBWT soundtrack. So, what are some of your more disjointed pairings that yoy have heard with your iPod on shuffle?

I got so much variety on mine that I can't even attempt - It may go from Townes Van Zandt to Bobby Rush to Cab Calloway

I should jump in here with an editorial comment:
This discussion is only valuable if the participants are sincerely fans of music. I appreciate the technical ability of all talented musicians; therefore I can listen to Brian Webster's amazing bass performance on Hammer Smashed Face; and appreciate the subtle elegance of Carter Beauford's drumming on DMB's Sattelite despite the complete discontinuity of genre. That is to say; it'll be easy to post a real non-sequitur for someone who just has a bunch of random bullshit on their Ipod because they're ambivalent about music. I hate that. I know I'm an arrogant bastard, by the way.

I shit you not, these are the last four songs that have played on my iPhone at work:
Neil Diamond - Soolaimon (quite possible the greatest piece of music ever composed ) to Queensryche - Eyes of a Stranger to Flatt & Scruggs - Foggy Mountain Breakdown to David Bowie - Let's Dance

I'm talking about a truly random selection...Like when you're scrolling through someone's Ipod, get excited to see a few bands you like interspersed in their collection, comment on it, and the owner of the Ipod has no idea why those bands appear in their collection. Usually it's because of a previous significant other or some other non-fan-of-the-music-situation. I kind of knew I was getting myself into a pissing contest when I posted my OP. I know I'm an arrogant, intolerant music snob; but you had me wrong in your analysis.
