05// Rachael Yamagata
06// Regina Spektor
07// Arctic Monkeys
08// Camera Obscura

What was the first song you ever heard by 6 (Regina Spektor)?
Fidelity, I think.

What is your favorite song of 8 (Camera Obscura)?
Christ! Talk about Sophie's choice... I'll go with Other Towns and Cities.

What kind of impact has 1 (Damien Rice) left on your life?
Words kind of fail to express it. Suffice to say Damien's work moves me more than I ever thought possible. His words touch my soul. Cheesy, but oh-so-true.

What is your favorite lyric of 5 (Rachael Yamagata)?
"Peeking is stealing the life you don't share
There's a map of a memory, of us over there
Dangerous questions are near
I'm too busy chasing parades
To ever love you the same
Just breathe
I'm going away"

How many times have you seen 4 (Death Cab For Cutie) live?
Zero. I wish...

What is your favorite song by 7 (Arctic Monkeys)?
Again, tough call. Fluorescent Adolescent, I guess.

Is there any song by 3 (Cat Power) that makes you sad?
*Ironic laugh* Most of my songs are pretty depressing, and Cat *certainly* contributes to my sad-tunes addiction. To name only one song: Metal Heart. It always does the trick.

What is your favorite song by 9 (Rilo Kiley)?
Again with these favourite questions. It's like choosing between my kids; if I had any. Without thinking much, Teenage Love Song. It makes me smile every time. Oh, Jenny...

When did you first get into 2 (Ryan Adams)?
Oh, many *many* moons ago. I'd guess minimum 5 years.

How did you get into 3 (Cat Power)?
I honestly don't remember. I fell for her too many years ago. I can't put my finger exactly how/when it started.

What is your favorite song by 4 (Death Cab For Cutie)?
I Will Follow You Into The Dark... or What Sarah Said. Maybe Transatlanticism. I'm bad at choosing.

How many times have you seen 9 (Rilo Kiley) live?
Again. Zero. I only wish.

What is a good memory concerning 2 (Ryan Adams)?
Back when I first discovered him, I introduced his work to a good friend and he loved it. We spent the whole afternoon chilling out and listening to his songs. At moments I sang along not so loudly while he tried to pick up on the lyrics, and we commented on the words, you know, how Ryan is an awesome writer.

Is there a song by 8 (Camera Obscura) that makes you sad?
*Another ironic laugh* Books Written For Girls.

What is your favorite song of 1 (Damien Rice)?
Impossible to name only one. Really. *Impossible*.

How did you become a fan of 10 (The Weepies)?
I heard Painting By Chagall some place I don't quite remember where, and I was a goner. I went after everything they had ever released, and the rest is history.

Wow! That took time... Mission accomplished ;)

meme, music is my favourite mistress, marry me damien rice!
