I don't remember exactly what my favorite song was last year, but this is about the time the whole band mutiny was going on, and this is my "fight" song. It's always a favorite. :D ( Read more... )

Heh. I was in elementary school when this album came out. They were my first favorite band and it was the first album I bought for myself (bought or begged my parents for, I don't remember XD), on cassette tape.

Day 28: A song that makes you feel guilty

"Lodi", Creedence Clearwater Revival

I'm not really sure how a song can make you feel guilty, but I guess this song is as close as I could get. I can relate to it, trying to make it as a musician but stuck stagnating where I am which makes me feel guilty because I'm not successful, I guess. Does that make ( Read more... )

I have two for today's topic as well.

Day 27: A song that you wish you could play

"Eruption", Van Halen

This one, for obvious reasons. I once saw the guitar tab sheet music for this; it's very intimidating! Lots of notes.

Yeah I know, Hendrix did it first but I like this version better. I ( Read more... )

Day 25: A song that makes you laugh

"BB Gun", Roger Alan Wade

(lol, hillbillies XD)

I know a lot of funny songs. For me, a big part of what makes a song appealing is if it makes me giggle. ^_^ I had a few others in mind to use here, but then something made me remember this one and I think it's the funniest song I know.

I'd like to shoot you ( Read more... )

Day 24: A song that you want to play at your funeral

"My Way", Frank Sinatra

This song is perfect for me because it's about living your life by your own rules. Also I've always loved Frank Sinatra ( Read more... )

Day 23: A song that you want to play at your wedding

"Just The Way You Are", Billy Joel

I've been thinking about this a lot lately. I doubt I'll ever get married. Mind you, I'm not opposed to the idea--if I ever meet the right man I probably would, but even then I'd probably just go down to the courthouse and do the civil ceremony thing; that ( Read more... )

Day 22: A song that you listen to when you're sad

"The Grand Illusion", Styx

When I get frustrated because my life isn't turning out the way I'd like this song reminds me to have patience.

Late post today because I just got home from work about a half hour ago. x_x
