stolen from everyone.
list 10 artists/bands you love/like/listen to. then procede.
(in the interest of mixing it up, i totally mixed up the order. actually, i had my friend scramble them for me, so they're really in no order. so random. indigo girls and amy ray (solo) are always my #1, but i'm mixing it up).
1. snow machine
2. dar williams
3. 1945
4. amy ray (solo stuff)
5. girlyman
6. family outing
7. three5human
8. three finger cowboy
9. indigo girls
10. shawn mullins
1. What was the first song you ever heard by 6? (Family Outing) probably "the books."
2. What is your favourite album of 8? (Three Finger Cowboy) horray for love
3. What is your favourite lyric that 5 has sung? (Girlyman) this one's tough. probably "there's a lot to be said for what's been left behind" from "maori." but i also have some fondness for "from decatur, georgia, to california..." from "amaze me," because that's my life.
4. How many times have you seen 4 live? (Amy Ray) ok, i am going strictly on solo stuff here. in other words, no IG appearances... let me count... i think 19.
5. What's your favorite song of 7? (Three5Human) i can't decide between these two: "yesterday's girl" or "georgia" (from that woodsongs radio show)
6. What is a good memory you have considering the music of 10? (Shawn Mullins) just hearing him live every night for like 15 nights in a row on the indigo girls' west coast tour in 2004 (he was the opener). after his last show (vancouver), i was sad to see him go, and so didn't appreciate (never had before) kim richey nearly as much as i liked shawn mullins.
7. Is there a song of 3 that makes you sad? (1945) "living on the waves." it kind of mirrored a situation in my life for a while. but i looove that song; it's (for me) a sad song that i happen to really like.
8. What is your favourite lyric that 2 has sung? (Dar Williams) i am enjoying the sarcasm of "... and vow that we'll never get high or have sex" from "teen for god." i also really like "the market resists what the market absorbes, with a five pointed leaf on the cover of forbes" (for obvious reasons!) from "play the greed."
9. What is your favourite song by 9? (Indigo Girls) do i really have to answer this? for the millionth time, "world falls." if you don't know why, go back and read my blog. i've explained it several times.
10. How did you get in to 3? (1945) just from being a whore for all things daemon.
11. What was the first song you heard by 1? (Snow Machine) "birmingham."
12. What is your favourite song by 4? (Amy Ray) again, as a solo artist... "put it out for good."
13. How many times have you seen 9 live? (Indigo Girls) jeeezus... well over 100. nearing 150.
14. What is a good memory you have concerning 2? (Dar Williams) ummm, going to her recent san francisco show where GIRLYMAN opened for her!
15. Is there a song of 8 that makes you sad? (Three Finger Cowboy) nope. their songs are all very happy and upbeat and FUN!
16. What is your favourite album of 5? (Girlyman) remember who i am. i like it so much better than little star.
17. What is your favourite lyric that 3 has sung? (1945) "i still recall bending to the dashboard and we saw the northern lights as far south as alabam, my cigarettes keep burning towards her lips and for the moment i forget that i'm even on the road." (from "aurora borealis")
18. What is your favourite song of 1? (Snow Machine) right now i have to say it's "old tin roof." it varies between that and "birmingham."
19. What is your favourite song of 10? (Shawn Mullins) i have to go with "beautiful wreck" for now.
20. How many times have you seen 6 live? (Family Outing) i saw them almost every night (with the exception of vancouver, because of al's DUI) on amy's west coast solo tour. so maybe 8? 9?
21. What is a great memory you have concerning 9? (Indigo Girls) ummm... how to i even begin to answer such a question about something that has changed and shaped my entire life? ok, that's what i'm going to say... one great memory... when i first discovered amy and emily in 1989, and i really (at the time) had no concept how, because of them, my life would change.
22. What is your favourite lyric that 6 has sung? (Family Outing) they have actual lyrics? that's funny. no seriously, "CROSS THA LINE..."
23. What was the first song you heard by 8? (Three Finger Cowboy) "kissed."
