Music Memes

I saw this meme on a_deal_with_god's journal a few days ago. Ever since I have been sifting through my CD collection trying to fill it out correctly. Hmm, I wonder if there even IS a "proper" way to fill out a meme? God, I take these things way too seriously.

Name your five favorite bands/musicians. Then name your five favorite songs by that band/musician.

2) Walking in my Blue Jeans
3) Damn, I Wish I was Your Lover
4) I Want You
5) Only Love (The Ballad of Sleeping Beauty)

Tanya Donelly
1) Darkside
2) Keeping You
3) The Center
4) Landspeed Song
5) Influenza

Faith No More

2) Falling to Pieces
3) Be Aggressive
4) The Perfect Crime

There are two versions of the following meme. One asks you to just use song titles to answer the questions, the other asks you to use lyrics. I've never done it using titles so I'm gonna take a whack at it cause we've got six student aides in here tonight so there REALLY Isn't anything for me to do.

For this survey, you have to use the song titles of one singer/band to answer all the questions.
I of course am using Sophie B. Hawkins.

1. Are you male or female? Beautiful Girl

2. Describe yourself: The Darkest Childe

3. How do they (they?) feel about you? Open up Your Eyes

4. How do you feel about yourself? Walking on Thin Ice

5. Describe your girlfriend/boyfriend? The One You Have Not Seen

6. What would you rather be doing? Feelin' Good

7. Describe where you live: Meet me on a Rooftop

8. Describe how you love: We are One Body

9. Share a few words of wisdom: Live and Let Love

I filled out the answers to this meme using lyrics way back in 2003 and posted them in my old journal. I went back and re-read the answers and found not many of them have changed. So here they are. Again. ( Read more... )
