1. Which song do you prefer, #1 ["Somebody Stand By Me"] or #40 ["Fireflies"]?
Well, since both are Faith Hill songs, it makes it easy to compare. I LOVE Fireflies.
2. Have you ever listened to #12 ["The Weather is Here, Wish you Were Beautiful"] continuously on repeat?
I don't think so. It's one of my favorite Buffett songs, but there are really only about two Buffett songs that I would listen to continuously on repeat.
3. What album is #26 ["Another One Bites the Dust"] from?
Best of Queen. I don't know what album it was originally on.
4. What do you think about the artist who did #15 [Korn]?
Apparently they've fallen off the face of the Earth? I used to be a pretty big fan but I honestly don't really like that sound anymore.
5. Is #19 ["Presents to Send you"] one of your favorite songs?
No.
6. Who does #38 ["Siva"] remind you of?
No one.
7. Does #20 ["Kristina"] have better lyrics or music?
I don't feel like listening to it to find out. It's not one of my favorite Howie Day songs, so I'd have to say the best part about it is the hotness level of the person singing it.
8. Do any of your friends like #3 ["Broken"]?
Absolutely. Any one of my friends who likes country music. Be careful if it ever comes on the radio in the car with us, you'll here all of us trying to belt it out.
9. Is #33 ["Over and Over Again"] from a movie soundtrack?
Nope, but #3 was.
10. Is #18 ["St. Patrick's Day"] overplayed on the radio?
Nope, it wasn't one of John Mayer's big songs. I don't think...
11. What does #21 ["The Luckiest"] remind you of?
This is going to sound really cliche and dumb, but it reminds me of how lucky I am to have such amazing friends.
12. Which song do you prefer, #5 ["Friend of a Friend"] or #22 ["Chemical Party"]?
Sorry, Gavin Degraw, Foo Fighters will beat you hands down in any song.
13. What album is #17 ["Guys Do it All the Time"] from?
Don't care. I think she was a one-hit wonder, and since she's country, the album was probably self-titled.
14. When did you first hear #39 ["Bad Moon Rising"]?
I know I was really young on that one. My dad listens to classic rock, so, it was before I can remember.
15. What genre is #8 ["I'll Be Home For Christmas"]?
Christmas music. Good thing it wasn't some other Jimmy Buffett song...he has no genre.
16. Do any of your friends like #14 ["Just Another"]?
Lauren is the only Pete Yorn fan that I know of.
17. What color does #4 ["Should've Been a Cowboy"] remind you of?
Dirt color. Haha...it's about horses and lassos and Cowboys...I think westerns and dirt and dust.
18. Have you ever blasted #11 ["Nothingwrong'"] on your stereo?
Absolutely. I love cranking Jimmy Eat World while driving.
19. What genre is #37 ["In Limbo"]?
Alternative
20. Can you play #13 ["Meant to Live"] on any instrument?
No.
21. What is your favorite line from #30 ["Your House"]?
"I throw away everything I've written you
Anything just keep my mind from
Thinking how I had you once
No, I can't forget that
Sometimes I wish I could lose you again"
Verse, line...whatever..
22. What is your favorite lyric from #24 ["Who's Your Daddy"]?
It's the whole song, there's no one lyric.
23. Would you recommend #23 ["Pickin Wildflowers"] to your friends?
If they like country music and not so subtle innuendos, yes. It's a very fun song and I love it.
24. Is #2 ["Strong Enough"] a good song to dance to?
No.
25. Do you ever hear #16 ["Love You"] on the radio?
Yes, it's overplayed, but I still like it.
26. Is #32 ["Fade"] more of a "nighttime" or "daytime" song?
Umm...nighttime. But, now I'd say it's neither, I hate it and I should delete it.
27. Does #36 ["Real Good Man"] have any special meaning to you?
Nope.
28. Do any of your friends like #31 ["Why Don't we Get Drunk and Screw?"]?
They've probably never heard it. It's a funny song. My parents used to skip over that track when my brother and I were younger.
29. Is #25 ["Fallin Upside Down"] a fast or slow song?
As far as Rascal Flatts goes...fast.
30. Is #35 ["Polly"] a happy or sad song?
Are there happy Nirvana songs?
31. What is one of your favorite lyrics from #9 ["Last Kiss"]?
It's too sad to have favorite lyrics.
32. Is #34 ["The Guest"] better to listen to alone or with friends?
Well, Phantom Planet reminds me of two things...their shitty concert last year and swim team because we blasted their CD in my car during progressive dinner. Both were with friends, so I'd say with friends.
33. When did you first hear #27 ["Mississippi Girl"]?
Probably on WMZQ and I was probably driving. It was a last year song....or two years ago, I don't know.
34. Name 3 other songs by the artist who did #29 ["Home is Where the Heart Aches"]?
"Beacons", "Grotty Misconception", and of course...."Submerged" I LOVE 2AM!!!
35. Do you know all the words to #6 ["Lullaby"]?
Aren't the only words "Go back to sleep"?
36. Does #28 ["Earth the Bella, Pt. 1"] have better lyrics or music?
It's a pretty new album, so I don't really know the lyrics yet. The music is catchy, though.
37. What album is #10 ["Going to California"] from?
Led Zeppelin IV
