IF SOMEONE SAYS "IS THIS OKAY?" YOU SAY?
(oops, i skipped this one by accident the first time through. I could shift everything up one, but I don't feel like it.)
Tonight's the Night - Steeleye Span
WHAT WOULD BEST DESCRIBE YOUR PERSONALITY?
Original Bedroom Rockers - Kruder & Dorfmeister
Rock. (Unicode unfortunately does not have a mano curonuto glyph)
WHAT DO YOU LIKE IN A GUY/GIRL?
Arafel's Lament - Heather Alexander
I like them to be sad elves. Okay, sure.
HOW DO YOU FEEL TODAY?
Skyline Jig - The Chieftains

Full Circle - Loreena McKennit
How very... philosophical of me.
WHAT IS YOUR MOTTO?
The Sick Note - The Dubliners

WHAT DO YOUR FRIENDS THINK OF YOU?
Queen of the Savages - The Magnetic Fields
Oh. I had no idea.
WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT VERY OFTEN?
Hedgehog's Dilemma - Evangelion (Or at least that's what my iTunes calls this track, i have no idea where it came from or what it is)
I spend a lot of time thinking about the Hedgehog's Dilemma, apparently. Well, it is a dilemma. (I don't think it's really one i spend a lot of time thinking about, though.)
WHAT IS 2+2?
The Death of Ferdiand De Saussure - Magnetic Fields
"I'm not so sure I even know what it is"
Every time you add 2 and 2, God kills a Ferdinand De Saussure.
WHAT DO YOU THINK OF YOUR BEST FRIEND?
The Trail of the Survivor - Dougie MacLean
WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE PERSON YOU LIKE?
Close Your Eyes - Heather Alexander
Aww. I'd quote some lines from the song, except they'd all be ridiculously sappy in context. (ETA: if you try to look up the lyrics to this song online, most sites give the lyrics to Courage Knows no Bounds instead (not sappy), and give the lyrics for this song under Brannigan's Special Ale.)
WHAT IS YOUR LIFE STORY?
Bring it Round - Boiled in Lead
Song does include the line "I wrote home and tell 'em 'bout this life of mine"
WHAT DO YOU WANT TO BE WHEN YOU GROW UP?!
The Wedding Jig - Altan
I want to be the Wedding Jig. Or possibly married
WHAT DO YOU THINK WHEN YOU SEE THE PERSON YOU LIKE?

um. huh.
WHAT DO YOUR PARENTS THINK OF YOU?
Celtic Fiddle Fest - The Chieftains & Great Big Sea
WHAT WILL YOU DANCE TO AT YOUR WEDDING?
Hymn to the Breaking Strain - Julia Ecklar & Leslie Fish (& Rudyard Kipling)
Hmm... Sold!
A song about men not coming with proper documentation (among other things). Not a very good dancing song, though.
WHAT WILL THEY PLAY AT YOUR FUNERAL?
Orpheus - DeatHat
:O oh. oh my. okay.
If there's a song in my iTunes library which was written with the author literally thinking of me (not primarily, necessarily), this is it. Also, it's about people dying; or people not dying. I think architeuthisdux might be disturbed by this idea, though.
WHAT IS YOUR HOBBY/INTEREST?
The Prophet - Wolfstone
My hobby is prophesizing. Or possibly white ravens.
WHAT IS YOUR BIGGEST SECRET?
Curse Upon All Bards - Leslie Fish & Heather Alexander
WHAT DO YOU THINK OF YOUR FRIENDS?

I'm not sure which is which, though.
WHAT'S THE WORST THING THAT COULD HAPPEN?
Don't KNow Why - Norah Jones
The worst thing that could happen to me is not knowing why it happened. Yies.
HOW WILL YOU DIE?
Longest Time - Billy Joel
I will die in the longest time. Sweet!

Battle of Richard the Third.
Man. I really regret the Plantagenet's losing the War of the Roses. That sucked.

It is too damn early. I cry.

Being on a boat during a storm, apparently.

Huh. Okay. Well, it is a sad ending.

Yeah, okay.
