Frankenstein Music Mix
I saw this on meyerlemon's LJ which led me to calikali's music meme.
Feel free to snag any.
1. A song that wakes you up in the morning. Sugar We're Going Down - Fall Out BoyThere were a few that fell into this category, but this CD is in my car right now and I like to listen to it as I drive the kids to school.
2. A song you loved in high school. Animal - Def Leppard I loved Def Lep in high school, and this was the song that introduced me to them.
3. A song that mentions a dead celebrity. Pride - U2 After I uploaded this, I realized that I don't think they actually say MLK Jr's name in this song.
4. A song you'd be embarrassed to listen to with your grandmother. Closer - Nine Inch Nails Pretty much self explanatory.
5. A song that MTV will never play in a million, billion years. Theme from Great American Hero I really don't watch MTV, but I can't imagine they would play this.
6. A song with a title that ends in y. Heavy - Collective Soul
7. A song that makes you crave something. Margaritaville -Jimmy Buffett Mmm...margaritas
8. A cover song that you think is better than the original. It's My Life - No Doubt
9. The original of #8. It's My Life - Talk Talk At first, My husband and I didn't realize that the No Doubt version was a cover, because neither one of us remember the original. I became determined to find the original version, and when I did find it I still liked No Doubt's version better.
10. A song that reminds you of a fandom OTP. Think of Laura - Christopher Cross and Goodbye my Friend - Linda Ronstadt I threw two in here because they are both soap opera based songs, and both are from OTP's I loved at the time where one half of the couple met a tragic fate. 'Think of Laura' was for General Hospital's Luke and Laura when Laura died(? or went missing?) and Goodbye My Friend was for Days of Our Lives' Steve and Kayla when Steve died.
11. You have been caught mouthing the lyrics to this song. It’s the End of the World As We Know It - REM I start out strong, but lose it rapidly.
12. A song that will always make you think of a movie. Woman’s Work - Kate Bush From She's Having a Baby. It always makes me think of Kevin Bacon anxiously waiting in the hospital hallway for word about his wife and baby
13. A song that should totally have fic written about it. No One is To Blame - Howard JonesThe whole forbidden love - shouldn't act on it, but can't help themselves idea.
14. A song you wish they'd play in elevators. Life in a Northern Town - The Dream Academy I have a soft spot for this song, and the only time I hear it is dentist offices.
15. You'll stop listening to this song when they pry your MP3 player out of your cold, dead hands. Brian Wilson - Barenaked Ladies I have a feeling I'm going to be a fan of BNL until I'm in the cold hard grave. I chose this song because I loved it long before I became a fan of the band.
