Getting songs to show up in the right order

[curtdakota]

I have an Alpine CDE-123 head unit and i use the front USB port 99% of the time, mainly with a 16BG thumb drive and im having trouble getting the songs in the order that i want.

now with my old head unit, all i had to do was add the songs one by one in the oder i wanted to the thumb drive and thats the order they would play in, but for some reason that doesnt work with this head unit, any suggestions on how to do that? mainly i just want my favorite 10 songs first then i dont care after that.
