Some of these made me laugh out loud - notably the Marriage and Funeral Song - and some are weirdly appropriate. I could have gamed the results a bit by excluding my soundtracks and jazz cds, plus I've got close to 40 years of music still in album form and I'm still in the process of making them digital (for example, I have only 2 Beatles CDs, but I have every one of their albums on vinyl). So, once I get my music collection complete - or as complete as I can make it - my results my differ quite a bit

Still, this was a fun experiment and one you might want to try yourself.
