30 Day Music Challenge




There was another 30 day challenge I stumbled across, and instead of trying to make them all happen in random places, I'm just gonna do them all now and not lose any sleep over it.


day 01 - your favorite song: "Buffalo Stance" by Neneh Cherry
day 02 - your least favorite song: "Hotel California" or "I Kissed a Girl" by the Eagles & Katy Perry, (dis)respectively
day 03 - a song that makes you happy: "It's Time To Party" by Andrew WK
day 04 - a song that makes you sad: "Wolves pt. 1 & 2" by Bon Iver
day 05 - a song that reminds you of someone: "Midnight Radio" from Hedwig. Reminds me of Ryan Miller.
day 06 - a song that reminds you of somewhere: "I'm Trying to Break Your Heart" by Wilco, reminds me of Union Station (Chicago)
day 07 - a song that reminds you of a certain event: "Bombs Over Baghdad" by Outkast, take a wild guess.
day 08 - a song that you know all the words to: "Down" by 311, especially when drunk.
day 09 - a song that you can dance to: "My Favorite Accident" by Motion City Soundtrack.
day 10 - a song that makes you fall asleep: I used to listen to White Pony by the Deftones to get to sleep, so I'll answer with that entire album.
day 11 - a song from your favorite band: my favorite band changes quickly, but I'll go with "43% Burnt" by the Dillinger Escape Plan
day 12 - a song from a band you hate: "Big Church" by SunnO)))
day 13 - a song that is a guilty pleasure: No one should ever feel guilty about music they like. A song that other people give me odd looks over, though, is probably "OMG" by Usher
day 14 - a song that no one would expect you to love: Well, shit, see above. But I guess my obsession with "Midnight Confessions" by the Grass Roots gets people sometimes.
day 15 - a song that describes you: "The Battle of Hampton Roads" by Titus Andronicus
day 16 - a song that you used to hate but now love: "New Millennium Cyanide Christ" by Meshuggah
day 17 - a song that you hear often on the radio: "Torn by Natalie Imbruglia. This many years later, and she's still on those "we do what we want" stations. I thought I'd never hear her again after the initial summer of that song's release.
day 18 - a song that you wish you heard on the radio: "Murmaider" by Dethklok
day 19 - a song from your favorite album: "White Walls" by Between the Buried and Me off of Colors.
day 20 - a song that you listen to when you’re angry: "I" by Meshuggah.
day 21 - a song that you listen to when you’re happy: "Sipping on the Sweet Nectar" by Jens Lekman
day 22 - a song that you listen to when you’re sad: "North by North" by Faded Paper Figures
day 23 - a song that you want to play at your wedding: I didn't want any music played at my wedding, nothing specifically.
day 24 - a song that you want to play at your funeral: I have a list somewhere because it's hilarious, but you'll have to consult Cameron. I'm sure "Round and Round" by RATT makes the cut.
day 25 - a song that makes you laugh: "Who's That? Brooown!" by Das Racist
day 26 - a song that you can play on an instrument: we all taught ourselves how to play "Can You Feel the Love Tonight" on the saxophone because it's hilarious and a convoluted in-joke.
day 27 - a song that you wish you could play: "Home" by Dream Theater.
day 28 - a song that makes you feel guilty: "Soup" by Blind Melon.
day 29 - a song from your childhood: "When I'm With You" by Sheriff.
day 30 - your favorite song at this time last year: as for what was current last year? "A More Perfect Union" by Titus Andronicus

I was googling "Sheriff When I'm With You" so I could have the album cover on my ipod and came across your photo with "I'm just gonna do them all now and not lose any sleep over it."

So I'm thinking, "I like the song, but she's got it bad for these guys. Wow." Thank you for being sane.
