    After you have launched iTunes, create a playlist in it. The software has the option of either creating a playlist for you automatically, or let you create the playlist manually by selecting the songs you want to add to it individually. Choosing the latter will allow you to have a much more personalised playlist and is therefore the option you are more likely to go for.
