questions:
what was the first song you ever heard by 6?
'dear sons and daughters of hungry ghosts.' wolf parade re-recorded it for their lp but i think the original is so much better (mostly because of the foot stamping echoey la la la la la la's in the beginning, and the lack of the cheesy chord ending on the re-recorded version).
what is your favorite album by 2?
i just got pretty little head in the mail last week, but i would probably choose get away from me anyway.
what is your favorite lyric that 1 has sung?
wow, i'm not sure...i've not paid so much attention to beirut's lyrics as i have to the pretty singing and the oompah oompah.
how many times have you seen 11 live?
never...and with my concert-going record of late, it's likely i won't ever.
what is your favorite song by 7?
oooh...i think for now i will say, 'your love is the place where i come from.' though it's tough to beat tfc's cover of 'like a virgin.'
what is a good memory you have involving 20?
shopping at ikea together was quite fun...i have no memories of i'm from barcelona, shit.
is there a song by 3 that makes you sad?
nope...lucksmiths specialize in happy.
what is your favorite lyric that 14 has sung?
it wasn't me, i wasn't there
i was stone drunk, it isn't clear
and it doesn't count cause i don't care
(from 'it wasn't me')
what is your favorite song by 19?
'define a transparent dream'
how did you first get into 22?
i can't really remember...most likely something to do with the scotland/belle and sebastian/merge associations.
what was the first song you heard by 21?
'it's gonna take an airplane'
what is your favorite song by 4?
hmm...'movie ending romance'?
how many time have you seen 10 live?

what is your favorite album by 12?

what is a good memory you have involving 25?
when dj-ing on my radio show sometime in 1997, i mixed 'miss modular' quite perfectly into some drum 'n' bass track (ah, the late 90s...), a feat never replicated.
what was the first song you heard by 18?
'i'm lost without you here'
what is your favorite song by 17?
oh wow...'grace cathedral hill.' or 'i was meant for the stage.' or 'we both go down together.' or 'the mariner's revenge song.' or 'on the bus mall.' god don't make me choose.
