30 Day Song Challenge- Days 6-10

I'm combining the past 4 days of the challenge into one blog post since I fell behind due to secondaries.

You would think writing about yourself would be easy. Let me tell you, it's not. It's a lot more stressful than I initially imagined.

Day 6: A song that reminds you of someplace.
Natalie Merchant-My Skin

I don't hear this song very often (thank God!) But whenever I do, I'm immediately think back to Summer 2007 when I was an Orientation Counselor. I specifically think of the cold tile floor of Moore 100 at about 10am on Day 3. All the lights are off and I'm watching a powerpoint slideshow about rape, which begins our wellness presentation.


Day 7: A song that reminds you of a certain event
Any song by Armin Van Buuren

I think of the Electric Daisy Carnival 2010. Anna, Nina and I had so much fun; Great people watching, Great music. Armin came on after midnight and it was such a great way to end a memorable day.


Day 8: A song you know all the words to
The Little Mermaid-Part of your world

Really, who doesn't know all the words to Disney songs? The Little Mermaid happens to be my favorite Disney movie. I liked all the songs in the movie, but if I had to pick my favorite, it would be this one.

Day 9: A song you can dance to
Jin Go Lo Ba- Fatboy Slim

Buy Just Dance and Just Dance 2 and you will understand.


Day 10: A song that makes you fall asleep
Rainbow Connection- Kermit the Frog

The Sarah McLachlan version is even more sleep inducing.

30 Day Song Challenge- Day 5: A song that reminds you of someone

Bryan Adams

I was never really familiar with Bryan Adams, but I did like this particular song. Now whenever I think of Bryan Adams or hear any of his songs, I immediately think of Sheila.

30 Day Song Challenge- Day 3: A Song that makes you happy

I had a really hard time with this one. But I ended up picking this one that sure gives me lots of positive feelings, happiness included.

John Lennon-Imagine

The link is actually for the Glee version, but you get the point.

30 Day Song Challenge- Day 2: Least Favorite Song

30 Day Song Challenge- Day 2: Least Favorite Song

Kings of Leon- Use Somebody

I'm sure they are a great band and I wish them success, but I just can't stand them or this song. Even if I have to listen to a commercial instead, I change the station whenever this comes on the radio.

30 Day Song Challenge- Day 1: Favorite Song

After 4 months of neglect, I finally decided to post something. And what better way to come back to blogging than with the 30 Day Song Challenge.

I was introduced to this song challenge about two weeks ago by my [new] co-worker Dominique, who heard about this on Facebook from her friend. The rules are simple: Each day is a different song. For example, Day 1, which I am posting here, is to pick your Favorite Song. Your favorite song of all time or one that you really like right now, it is open for your interpretation. (BTW, This is all supposed to be done on Facebook, I'm just doing this via blog for fun) If you were to do this on Facebook, you need to find the actual Facebook 30 Day song challenge page. On the group's wall, as well as on your own profile, you post the song/video and the day so that people know what you are posting. You can even write a small blurb.

Pretty straight forward, but some of the days are pretty tricky.

So let's begin!

DAY 1- FAVORITE SONG

I couldn't narrow it down to one, so my two favorite songs are.

1. Shania Twain-From this Moment On
**I've always had a special place in my heart for Shania. I think she is amazing with everything that has happened to her and this song is great.

and

2. Lady Gaga- Bad Romance
**Out of all her songs, this is my favorite. The song itself is okay, I never quite understood the random French in the bridge of the song, but the beat is great.
