Day 30 - Favorite song from this time last year

For those of you that haven't seen what this is about, it is my 30 day music challenge - I hope you enjoy this challenge as much as I have.

There were several from this time last year that I loved, but this is the most catchy of the lot, so as the sun is shining, I chose this one.

Train - Hey Soul Sister

I hope you have enjoyed my choices, and who knows, maybe you will do your own 30 days of music.

Day 29 - Song from your Childhood

For those of you that haven't seen what this is about, it is my 30 day music challenge - I hope you enjoy this challenge as much as I have.

There really was only one choice for today, and that is Bette Midler - Wind beneath my wings. This was given to my by my best friend of then, and now, not only did she give me a tape with it on - but she wrecked her homework diary by writing a letter which included the lyrics to this track in it.

This one is for you Pip!

Please enjoy, and come back tomorrow for the next of my challenge :)

Day 28 - Song that makes you feel guilty

For those of you that haven't seen what this is about, it is my 30 day music challenge - I hope you enjoy this challenge as much as I have.

There aren't many tracks that make me feel guilty - I guess I could have chosen something fairly obvious like Michael Jackson - Man in the mirror, or Phil Collins - Another day in Paradise. Instead I chose this track, Hammerfall - Never, Ever. The reason it makes me feel guilty is because it was given to me by someone who was once a big part of my life, about 18 months / 2 years after we split up due to the distance. The break up was his choice, but this track made me feel bad as it was clear that although I had moved on, he was still suffering...

Please enjoy, and come back tomorrow for the next of my challenge :)

Day 27 - Song that you wish you could play

For those of you that haven't seen what this is about, it is my 30 day music challenge - I hope you enjoy this challenge as much as I have.

Following on from the last track, this is one of the tracks that I was taught to play by someone special. It took a suprising amount of time and patience to get it, but I could play a passable version. Sadly, I have now forgotten it, so it is definately suitable for today's choice.

Jean Michel Jarre - Calypso Pt 1
Please enjoy, and come back tomorrow for the next of my challenge :)

Day 26 - Song you can play on an instrument

For those of you that haven't seen what this is about, it is my 30 day music challenge - I hope you enjoy this challenge as much as I have.

There are a couple I used to be able to murder, sorry, play, on an instrument thanks to many patient hours of someone dear to me (Thank you Tenebrous) but sadly, due to lack of practice I probably can't play any of these now.

The first one I remember trying (and almost succeeding) to play on my keyboard was Love me tender - by Elvis Presley

Please enjoy, and come back tomorrow for the next of my challenge :)

Day 25 - Song that makes you laugh

For those of you that haven't seen what this is about, it is my 30 day music challenge - I hope you enjoy this challenge as much as I have.

I was so tempted to choose something by Weird Al here, but instead I gave in to another of the paradies instead. As Zenobia is my Secondlife "me" I thought it only fair that she get to chose one too as I am hijacking her blog...

So, here you go, brace yourselves... its Foolish Frost - Lindens Lament

Please enjoy, and come back tomorrow for the next of my challenge :)

Day 24 - Song you want to play at your funeral

For those of you that haven't seen what this is about, it is my 30 day music challenge - I hope you enjoy this challenge as much as I have.

I think there was only one real candidate for today's choice - I have always loved the song, and it is somehow fitting for a funeral.

Meatloaf - Heaven can wait

Please enjoy, and come back tomorrow for the next of my challenge :)
