1. Reply to this post and I'll assign you a letter.
2. List 10 songs you love that begin with that letter (along with some way people can listen to them).
3. Post them to your journal with these instructions.

I was given "R" by sarahofthedead, so...

( Sorry, yes, these should be under a cut, shouldn't they? Which means probably no-one will listen to them, but still... )

Not only am I going to LISTEN TO THEM ALL, but I'll even tell you what I think:

REM - Radio Song
REM will always and forever remind me of going swimming on a Sunday afternoon with my dad. I can't dissassociate them with that particular childhood memory.

Jonathan Coulton - RE: Your Brains
I love this song and I love this video. Who knew ASL could be so entertaining?

The Aquabats - Red Sweater
Weeeeeeeeeeeell, this started off well, with the doo-wop stuff, and then it went all ska and I didn't like it anymore. :(

The Clash - Rudie Can't Fail
My reaction to The Clash is pretty much always a resounding "meh", I'm afraid.

Pavement - Range Life
This is actually the first Pavement song I've ever listened to. I am aware that this is shameful. It didn't set my world alight, to be honest.

They Might Be Giants - Reprehensible
Well, that was quite pleasant!

Antony and the Johnsons - River of Sorrow
Umm, no, not for me.

B52s - Rock Lobster
I feel like I should like the B52s more than I do. Every time Craig makes me listen to Love Shack he tells me how awesome they are. But ... meh.

Islands - Rough Gem
Aw, this was alright!

Half Man Half Biscuit - Running Order Squabble Fest
Oh, balls, I haven't listened to HMHB at all and I'm seeing them on Friday! ARGHHHHHHHHH.

This was kind of like making a very restrictive and not at all flowing mixtape!

Yeah, I should have put them in more of an order, really...

Did I already know you were going to HMHB? I'm going to HMHB too! Why are you going to HMHB, then?

I think we talked about it a while ago, but I only decided I definitely wanted to go last week!

I'm going for the support band, really. I <3 Lovecraft.

Oh, yes - support band mention triggers it, we had discussed it but I don't think I knew you were definitely going. See you there, probably!

If you enjoy it - and I'm sure you will - I'll dropbox you a comp of their best stuff...
