Day 18 - A Song That You Love But Rarely Listen To

A song that I love but rarely listen to?

Velvet Revolver - Slither


I really love this song, and its a shame I don't play it more often. By far, their best song. I just have forgotten about them since they've been on hiatus since 2009, with no lead singer anymore. I guess I should get back to listening to them, haha.

Day 17 - A Song That Makes You Want To Dance

A song that makes me want to dance?

Muse - Undisclosed Desires


I really love this song, the beat just gets me moving! haha

Day 16 - A Song That Has Made You Cry

A song that has made me cry?

Diamond Rio - One More Day (With You)


This song always reminds me of my uncle, who was the most kindest, sincere person in the whole world. When my parents told me he had passed, it was one of the worst days of my life. And the lyrics of this song always get to me.

Day 15 - A Song You Sing When You're Drunk

A song I sing when I'm drunk?

FRIDAY! lol no, I don't know all the words. haha

It changes... last time, it was:

Eminem - 'Till I Collapse


It was more of a duet, with me taking the chorus, haha.

Day 14 - A Song You Love Singing Along To

A song I love singing along to?

THERE ARE SOOO MANY! haha

Pretty much any GN'R song (as I know all the lyrics...)
but I always sing along to this song...

Guns N' Roses - Better


I love this song. Plain and simple. haha

Day 13 - A Song That Reminds You Of A Former Friend

***EDIT: WOOT! 100 BLOG POSTS! I'M MOVING ON UP TO THE EAST SIDE!

A song that reminds me of a former friend?

Guns N' Roses - You're Crazy (Acoustic)


Although there are two versions of the song, I feel the acoustic version suits this person more. This person was all-around crazy and stupid and I'm just glad I got them out of my life. If I was still friends with this person, I wouldn't be the person I am today, and I really am grateful for the fact that we're not friends anymore.

Day 12 - Last Song You Heard

The last song I heard?

Kings of Leon - Revelry


By far, my favourite Kings of Leon song. Give it a listen, it just mellows me out totally and the lyrics are great. I don't know what else to say, other than listen to it. It's really good, trust me.

Day 11 - A Song On The Soundtrack Of Your Favourite Movie

A song on the soundtrack of my favourite movie?

That movie would be The Dark Knight.

Hans Zimmer & James Newton Howard - Why So Serious?


This theme fits so perfectly with the Joker and the whole movie! The whole soundtrack is great, but this one stands out to me the most, as it is so unpredictable, as is the Joker.

Day 10 - A Song By Your Favourite Band

A song by my fav band?

Guns N' Roses - Street of Dreams


There are so many songs that I could put here, but I put Street of Dreams here because it is the one I have been listening to the most recently. It's just such an awesome song, especially the outro! Many might not know this song as it came out on their newest album, but I feel everyone should hear it. I feel that way with everything off of the Chinese Democracy album, as most people dismissed it before even hearing it, assuming that since most of the original band were gone, that it wasn't Guns N' Roses anymore. To me, I feel this album is just a natural progression from their previous albums and its the album they wanted to make, and not what others wanted them to make. The one thing with this band is they do shit whenever they want to. They are unlike any other band in the world. And that's what I love about them (aside from their brilliant music), haha.

Day 09 - A Song That Makes You Hopeful

A song that makes me hopeful?

Soul Asylum - Stand Up and Be Strong

Myxer: Privacy Policy | Terms - More from Soul Asylum

Sorry, there are no studio versions of the song on YouTube so this 30 sec preview is all I could find.

This song is about standing up for yourself and being strong in times of peril and being able to push through it all and be a stronger person. Songs like this make me strive to be a better person and to always be strong and hopeful for the future.

Day 08 - A Song That Reminds You Of Your "First Love"

A song that reminds me of my 'first love'? haha

Against Me! - I Still Love You Julie


The only reason is that the 'first love' (if you could even call it that, haha) was a girl name Julie in Grade 1. hahahahah
I remember coming home and telling my mom that I was gonna marry that girl, haha.

Needless to say, I never saw her again after Grade 2.

Wow, I haven't been here in a while...

Okay, I'm sorry, but I have soo freakin' busy recently (projects, went to PAX East 2011, etc.) that I haven't had time to update the blog with my March challenge. But I will continue the challenge!

I will continue with the music challenge starting tomorrow, picking up where I left off.

I feel so out of the internet loop right now! hahaha

Day 07 - A Song That Reminds You Of A Past Summer

A song that reminds me of a past summer?

Guns N' Roses - Patience


I think it would be last summer, and that I needed to have a lot of patience, waiting for school to start again (I know I'm a nerd, I like my program and couldn't wait to get back to it.) I just needed to have a little patience and it would eventually get here.

And with summer coming up again, I'm gonna need a little patience again!

Day 06 - A Song That Reminds You Of A Close Friend

Sorry I missed a day!
It will be here soon, behind in work. Sorry!

Day 05 - A Song That Is Often/Currently Stuck In Your Head

A song that is currently stuck in my head? There are two at the moment.

The Roots - The Fire


Heard this song while playing the Fight Night Champion demo and its been stuck in my head ever since. Very inspiring lyrics and a beat that gets me moving everytime I hear it. It's a damn shame it is so short.

Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here


I have always been a big Pink Floyd fan and have been listening to the Wish You Were Here album a lot recently. It's one of my favourite Pink Floyd songs and its one that I will keep coming back to. =)

Day 04 - A Song That Calms You Down

A song that calms me down?

City and Colour - Comin' Home


This song just mellows me out if I ever get riled up, even though that doesn't happen often. But I play it a lot anyways, which I guess keeps me mellow, haha. My favourite song by Dallas Green. Looking forward to his new album!

Day 03 - A Song That Reminds You of Your Parents

A song that reminds me of my parents?

Neil Diamond - And The Grass Won't Pay No Mind


His cover of this Elvis song is my Mom's favourite song, and whenever I hear it, I will always think of my parents. Any Neil Diamond song will do that for me though, haha. But that one especially reminds me of them. =)

Day 02 - A Song That Reminds You of Your Most Recent Ex

A song that reminds me of my most recent ex?

Not territory I like bringing up, but there is a song.

3 Doors Down - Here Without You


I won't go into much detail, but she had told me that this was her "Kevin Song" (lame, I know, haha). I always remember that, and I'll always think of that when I hear this song, but I don't play it too often, haha.

Day 01 - A Song From Your Childhood

Ahh, a new challenge.

A song from my childhood?

Mr. Big - To Be With You


I'm gonna go way back to when I was a baby. I have been told that this song was played whenever I started crying and it shut me up immediately, hahaha. To this day, my parents can't stand it because they heard it so much, haha.
