In the book Good Omens, there's a comment at one point about how any tape left in a car long enough eventually becomes a "Best of Queen" album.

I think this may apply to iPods, as well.

At Gymboree, they have an iPod on shuffle going through open gym. It's a really bizarre mixture of typical kids' songs, "world music" kids' songs, kids' parodies of adult songs, and random. (I've heard it bounce straight from Copeland's "Hoedown" to "Jungle Boogie" to "Surrey with the Fringe on Top".)

But really, that's the only explanation I have for why it occasionally goes on Queen binges. "I Want to Ride My Bicycle" makes a certain amount of sense, but "We Are The Champions" and "Bohemian Rhapsody" tend to result in all the adult heads in the room snapping up and giving each other "really? ok then" looks, while the toddlers play on obliviously...
