He says, son, can you play me a memory?
The Music Meme. Done over three days instead of thirty because I just don't think I have the patience/would probably forget about it over a full month.
Without music, life would be an error
- Friedrich Nietzsche
Day 01 - Your favourite song
Killer Queen - Queen
Click to viewSuch excellently bizarre lyrics; how could anybody not love this song?
Day 02 - Your least favourite song
My Heart Will Go On - Celine Dion
Yeah, this song doesn’t deserve a Youtube link. It’s not like we haven’t all heard it in excess of a hundred times whether we wanted to or not anyway.
Day 03 - A song that makes you happy
You Know It’s True - Jules Larson
I heard this on Castle and have pretty much been listening to it on repeat ever since.
Day 04 - A song that makes you sad
A Light on a Hill - Margot and the Nuclear So and So’s
I was listening to this song when I read a particularly sad part of A Quiet Belief in Angels (R.J. Ellory) and now I associate the song and the book together.
Day 05 - A song that reminds you of someone
You’ll Be In My Heart - Phil Collins
You totally know who you are. I don’t even remember the exact context in which this song was used, but I know it embarrasses my friend when it’s mentioned and it’s *hilarious*.
Day 06 - A song that reminds you of somewhere
A Praise Chorus - Jimmy Eat World
In my house at University, Liam’s bedroom was right next to the bathroom and when I was in the shower I used to make him play music that I liked loud enough for me to hear. This was his favourite song so I heard it many…many times.
Day 07 - A song that reminds you of a certain event
Carry On My Wayward Song - Kansas
My friend Ku and I may or may not have spent an entire media studies class watching the Supernatural season one finale montage…which was set to this music…
Day 08 - A song that you know all the words to
Ziggy Stardust - David Bowie
Ziggy played guitar.
Day 09 - A song that you can dance to
You Make My Dreams - Hall and Oates
I can pretty much dance to everything; this, however, is the only song I’ve ever danced down the street to on my way back from Morrisons whilst alone.
Day 10 - A song that makes you fall asleep
(Op. 9) Nocturne No. 1 in Bb Minor - Chopin
