Are there other songs that don't skip? Sounds like a failing iPod to me.

I have that problem time to time too. I just reset the Ipod and it worked. One time it didn't work, so I just cleared out the ipod and just re-synced everything.

My iPod did that with all my Rage Against the Machine.

I never could explain it.

actually some encoding will fail to play some tunes EVEN if you encoded with iTunes.. there's an article on it at apple..

for instance, i encoded all of my cd's a long time ago using iTunes, but for some reason, both my Touch and my iPhone won't play certain tunes, i had to re-encode them..

i hope this doesn't help you at all.
