As you know, I’ve been tracking and collecting the iTunes freebies that are offered periodically at Starbucks [SBUX] outlets.

For those of you just joining us here and are unfamiliar with this topic, you can “catch up” quickly with these (which are presented in reverse chronological order, to further shake you up):

But you may have been wondering if I’ve gotten all of the Picks of the Week. Alas, no, but I do have quite a few of them. Here’s my current list… presented in order of chronological release (hopefully in the correct order):

  1. MISSING – Counting Crows, “Washington Square”
  2. MISSING – Hilary McRae, “Every Day” [music video]
  3. MISSING – Carly Simon, “So Many People to Love”
  4. MISSING – Adele, “Chasing Pavements”
  5. 05/13/2008 – Duffy, “Mercy” [music video]
  6. 05/20/2008 – Jakob Dylan, “Something Good This Way Comes”
  7. 05/27/2008 – Bitter:Sweet, “Waking Up”
  8. 06/03/2008 – Sia, “Day Too Soon” [music video]
  9. 06/10/2008 – Priscilla Ahn, “Dream”
  10. 06/17/2008 – Sergio Mendes, “Funky Bahia”
  11. MISSING – Pacifika, “Me Cai”
  12. 07/01/2008 – James Hunter, “Jacqueline”
  13. 07/08/2008 – Tristan Prettyman, “Madly”
  14. 07/15/2008 – Willie Nelson & Wynton Marsalis, “Rainy Day Blues”
  15. 07/22/2008 – Sonya Kitchell, “Here to There”
  16. 07/29/2008 – My Morning Jacket, “I’m Amazed”
  17. 08/05/2008 – Ledisi, “Alright”
  18. MISSING – Chris Bathgate, “Yes, I’m Cold”
  19. 08/19/2008 – Ersi Arvizu, “El Arbol”
  20. 08/26/2008 – Jessie Baylin, “Was I On Your Mind”
  21. MISSING – Johnny Flynn, “The Box”
  22. 09/09/2008 – Orchestra Baobab, “Pape Ndiaye”
  23. 09/16/2008 – Raphael Saadiq, “100 Yard Dash”

But a funny thing happened as I was researching these ‘tunes coming in… some of them have already been offered up as freebies, either as an official iTunes Free Tune on Tuesday, or from the previous Starbucks iTunes Song of the Day promotion.

Well, I’ll keep ya posted…
