Day 27 - A Song That You Wish You Could Play
I think this is one of the greatest love songs ever made. Mikel has such a great personality and is a wordsmith.

Day 25 - A Song That Makes You Laugh
Anything by Lil Jon. Come on, tell me that the King of Krunk is not funny! Ok, so he is unintentionally funny. Let's try "Green Eggs and Ham."

Day 24 - A Song That You Want To Play At Your Funeral
Yesterday I used Oingo Boingo for my wedding day pick. Now today, I pick Oingo Boingo for my funeral. Interesting!

Day 23 - A Song That You Want To Play At Your Wedding
There's this song that everyone knows and it has lyrics like, "I've... had... the time of my life, and I owe all it owe to you..." You know that song? Good because it's not the one I am wanting at my wedding. Honestly, if I hear it my wedding, the DJ will be singing "Shot through the heart and you're to blame..."
I'd like this song by Oingo Boingo to be played. It's called, "We Close Our Eyes."

Day 22 - A Song That You Listen To When You’re Sad
History. Funeral For A Friend. Hands down. Sorry, this is a no contest discussion here. This song is actually about the vocalist's battle with alcohol and also has a great music video. The references and allusions in this song are plentiful.

Day 21 - A Song That You Listen To When You’re Happy
Honestly, if I had not already used Carbon Silicone for Day 3, I would have used "The News" for this day. Repeating it here would be so simple and make sense since the topic is about music and your happiness.
I'm going to have to say Flea Market. Yes, it's a commercial. But it makes me happy.

Day 20 - A Song That You Listen To When You’re Angry
I really don't get angry... It's kind of funny. So now you know that I don't listen to the radio or get angry.

Day 18 - A Song That You Wish You Heard On The Radio
It's no secret that I'm an Airborne Toxic Event fan. I wish they had more radio play. So I want to say "Welcome To Your Wedding Day."

Day 17 - A Song That You Hear Often On The Radio
Well, if I listened to the radio, this would be an easy task. But I really don't listen to the radio so this is not an easy task. Now that I have to pick a song that I listen to, I am going to say this song is the song I hear often when I do put the radio on:

Day 16 - A Song That You Used To Love But Now Hate
This is going to be a challenging task for me to come up with a song. The issue is that I still love all the songs I used to love; or at least as far as I know I still love them. I'm going to go through my iTunes playlist with the shuffle feature enabled until I come up with something that I despise so much I have to hit next. Granted, I will be be listening to each song for about two seconds before I hit shuffle so i can say without fail that I am not at all in love with that song anymore and that I hate it. Hopefully I can find a song that I hate so much that I hit DELETE.
Well, here we go... Over 40+ thousand songs to pick from. SOMETHING HAS TO BE HATED... Ok, so I am over 20 songs deep of shuffling now and all I have discovered is that I still like Lilly Allen.
Sorry Press Gang. You had such potential to be a great song. The Murder City Devils have a great instrumental sound but a grating use of vocals which ruins what could have been a great song. The drum overbearing drums also don't help.

Day 15 - A Song That Describes You
I was up late watching a movie called Monster so I can review it today... But this song, "Sparks Are Gonna Fly" by Catherine Wheel is one of the songs I would say describes me.

Day 14 - A Song That No One Would Expect You To Love
I have to thank my brother, Chris of http://ridiculouslyawesome.wordpress.com/, for this song...

Day 13 - A Song That Is A Guilty Pleasure
Oh, Skee-Lo. I wish you were not a guilty pleasure of mine. And I wish my vacation didn't end tonight. But the good thing is that with my vacation being over, I can get back to the good posting!

Day 12 - A Song From A Band You Hate
GOD I HATE BOY BANDS... Sorry, I just had to start off with that. I hate N'Sync a lot. Sorry, Timberlake but you've done a lot of damage. More than you can ever imagine. Seriously... You helped ruin Duran Duran with your cancerous plans in "Red Carpet Massacre." I really despise your music.
So with that, I hate N'Sync and "Bye Bye Bye" comes into my mind as a horrible song that they have created. So I decide to spare you all by not having you hear that song by picking Further Seems Forever's great cover of a horrible song.

Day 11 - A Song From Your Favorite Band
I have way too many favorite bands to pick from so naming one from my favorite band is really like asking me to pick a song from one of my favorite bands... The Airborne Toxic Event has covered a couple of great bands and has clearly been influenced by some of my favorite bands. I guess, because of that, I can justify them as a favorite band...

Day 10 - A Song That Makes You Fall Asleep
The girl I am seeing has me watching the TV series "Bones." We just hit the episode "The Salt In The Wounds" and this song was playing. It's so peaceful with the acoustics. I haven't heard guitar like this in a while.

Day 08 - A Song That You Know All The Words To
Oingo Boingo's "Deadman's Party" is one of the best examples of a song that is a cult classic; and yes, I know all the lyrics to it.
