LAST.FM-Survey
Normally I don't do these survey/list things. But this one looked like fun.
-----
Name your top 10 most played bands on Last.fm:
1 Alanis Morissette
2 Sigur Rós
3 Tori Amos
4 Michael Jackson
5 Kent
6 Stevie Wonder
7 Fiona Apple
8 Anika Moa
9 Coldplay
10 Robbie Williams
What was the first song you ever heard by 6?
Well, he's a classic. I'm sure it must have been "Happy Birthday". The first time I consciously listened to a track by him was "Sir Duke" during music class in 7th grade I think.
What is your favorite album of 2?
These days it would be "Takk...".
What is your favorite lyric that 5 has sung?
They have quite some good songs/lyrics... But the lyrics that gave me goosebumps when I first heard the song, was "I´ve been called a little coward more than once. It hurts when it´s true" from "Stop me June (little ego)".
How many times have you seen 4 live?
Only once unfortunately: August 10th, 1997, Hockenheimring, Germany. I hope he'll come back on stage one day.
What is your favorite song by 7?
Still and without any doubt: "I know". I remember the first time I listened to it: I was lieing in bad, having the booklet (lyrics) in front of me, and just started to cry because of...everything.
What is a good memory you have involving the music of 10?
Watching his live DVD "What we did last summer" when Stevie was here! ;)
Is there a song of 3 that makes you sad?
There are probably a lot..."Hey Jupiter". I can't listen to it often, only during special moments. And also "Toast".
What is your favorite lyric that 2 has sung?
Mh...you know Sigur Rós, don't you. My all time fave line comes from their song "Vidrar vel til loftarasa". Translated it means "I always come back to the same place. Total silence, no answer. But the best thing God has created....is a new day".
What is your favorite song by 9?
That's a tough one. I guess it would be "Clocks" coz I totally love it live. It's a classic.
How did you get into 3?
I remember how I discovered her, but that wasn't the reason I afterwards fell for her. I think it was because of the song "God" (album version), and then investigating her a bit more...and finding out about her geniousity.
What was the first song you heard by 1?
It must have been "Ironic". But I didn't really fall for her before 1999's "Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie"-album.
What is your favorite song by 4?
Oh that really varies. He's around for such a long time now (in my music life). Fave changed over the years. Chronologically it would be like this:
"Human nature", "Jam", "Will you be there", "Scream", "Stranger in Moscow", "Wanna be startin' something", "Who is it". One of those mentioned probably ;)
How many time have you seen 9 live?
Once! Last November in Mannheim. It was awesome.
What is a good memory you have involving 2?
Oh boy...so many. But my two most special and loved memories are the two live-experiences of the song "Vidrar vel til loftarasa" (2003 and 2005).
Is there a song of 8 that makes you sad?
"In the morning"...since I know the real meaning behind it (Anika had an abortion).
What is your favorite album of 5?
"Hagnesta Hill".
What is your favorite lyric that 3 has sung?
Omg - Tori has tons of amazing lyrics!!! I guess... "If the rain Has to separate from Itself does it say 'pick out your cloud?'" from "Your cloud".
What is your favorite song of 1?
"Thank U". And "Would not come" is my 1.b
What is your favorite song of 10?
I think it's "Come undone". There's this (not so) hidden critique and cynism, and Robbie shows a bit of himself. I love it.
How many times have you seen 8 live?
0 times...but my 'first' time will be on March 17th ;) - she'll be support act for Bic Runga.
What is your favorite album of 1?
"Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie". Tough question!
What is a great memory you have considering 9?
Mh....seeing Rodney happy at the concert. Btw, I've never seen a person before that can smile SO bright.
What was the first song you heard by 8?
I think it was "Good in my head", the first song from her debut "Thinking room" ;).
What is your favorite cover by 2?
Sigur don't play covers. At least there don't exist any that I know of. So... - But Stevie's cover of "We can work it out" (by The Beatles) is ace ;). And Tori Amos plays TREMENDOUS covers during her 'Piano bar' :)!
