Since
nickys did this I thought I would too.
Many of these questions could have had many different and equally valid answers. If mine were the same as
nickys 's I deliberately chose different ones if possible.
1. Reminds you of an ex-lover: Bryan Adams - "Summer of 69"
2. Reminds you of an ex-friend: Warren Zevon - "Excitable Boy"
3. Reminds you of your childhood: Nena - "99 Red Balloons"
4. Makes you cry: Red Gum - "I Was Only 19"
5. Makes you laugh: Corky & The Juice Pigs - "The Church of the Well Endowed Man"
6. Makes you wanna dance: Oh, too many! Good Rock 'n' Roll.
7. Reminds you of the one you love: Bruce Springsteen - "Thunder Road"
8. Makes you very, very sleepy: Nothing. Some stuff relaxes me, but I don't get sleepy from music.
9. You wish you wrote: Anything lucrative.
10. You wish had been written for you: The Pogues - "I'm a Man You Don't Meet Everyday"
11. Fills you with complete joy: Saxon - "20,000 feet" (but any fast metal, really)
12. You never want to hear again: A cover version by someone who clearly has failed to understand what the song's about. The TV Pop Idol person who murdered "Light My Fire", or Wet Wet Wet's version of "With a little Help From My Friends" sring to mind as examples.
13. You want to get married to: Um, I did! David Bowie - "John I'm Only Dancing"
14. You want played at your funeral: Leonard Cohen - "Bird on the Wire"
15. Makes you want to mosh: See 11, above!
16. Sums up your teenage years: The Undertones - "My Perfect Cousin" (I had one..)
17. You used to hate but now love: Soft Cell - "Tainted Love"
18. You like to wake up to: The best wake-up music has to be a piper at the foot of your bed, playing a stirring call to arms. I've experienced this, and it works. I'd love to try it with a full pipe band!
19. You like out of your parent's record collection: Buddy Holly, Rolling Stones, Carmina Burana
20. Your parents like out of your collection: Kenny Young & The Eggplants.
21. You love that you wouldn't know about if it wasn't for a friend: Ballboy
22. Makes you think of someone who died:Don MacLean - "American Pie"
23. You love the video more than the tune: Most things that make the charts probably fall into this category. It's a very small value of love, however!
24. Reminds you of your first crush: No music I have yet heard.
25. You love which is from one of your favorite movies: None - my favourite movies don't have songs in, they have scores.
26. Makes you think of the moon: Waterboys "The Whole of the Moon" (pretty obvious, really!)
27. Makes you think of sex: Siouxie & The Banshees - "Trust in Me"
28. Makes you think of being alone: Leonard Cohen - "The Partisan"
29. You love to hear at clubs: Dead Kennedys - "Kill The Poor"
30. Makes you think deeply: Seve Earle - "Jerusalem"
