Music!

The Temptress of the Disappearing Blog had this on her site, and since I can't resist anything music-related, I felt it necessary to put it here, too! So, thanks, Temptress!

Name ten bands/performers off the top of your head! Then answer the questions.

1. Jack Johnson
2. Elvis
3. Sting
4. CCR
5. Jimmy Buffett
6. The Doors
7. Beastie Boys
8. Primus
9. Bob Dylan
10. G. Love & Special Sauce

Now apply these questions to your list:

1. What was the first song you ever heard by 6? Hmmm... Hard to say - I'd bet almost anything it was "People are Strange" courtesy of the movie The Lost Boys.



2. What is your favorite album of 8? I'll go with Sailing the Seas of Cheese since it was my intro, but Frizzle Fry is an extremely close second.

3. What is your favorite lyric of 5? Tough call - first thing that comes to mind is "As a dreamer of dreams & a travelin' man I have chalked up many a mile..."

4. How many times have you seen 4 live? Never - don't think it'll happen.

5. What is your favorite song by 7? This is a toughy! I'll go with "High Plains Drifter"

6. Is there a song of 3 that makes you sad? "Why Should I Cry for You?"

7. What is your favorite lyric of 9? "To dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free/Silhouetted by the sea..." and pretty much the rest of the song.

8. What is your favorite song by 1? Ugh - Impossible... Okay - "Breakdown", "Flake","Fall Line"... I could go on.

9. How did you get into 8? The husband kept saying, "You really need to check out Primus. I think you'd dig them." And he kept on my ass until I picked up Sailing the Seas &, well, he was absolutely right. What concerns me is WHY he was so adamant I'd enjoy such a whacked-out, cartoon of a band. Is he trying to tell me something?

10. What is your favorite song by 4? "Born on the Bayou" & "Tombstone Blues"

11. How many times have you seen 1 live? *sigh* never - but I will!

12. What is a good memory concerning 2? My dad LOVED Elvis. There were many mornings of crack o'dawn fishing trips listening to Elvis. And that's all I need.

13. Is there a song by 2 that makes you sad? "Are you Lonesome Tonight?" & "Marie's the Name"

14. What is your favorite song of 6? "Roadhouse Blues"

15. How did you become a fan of 10? By way of my man Jack Johnson

So much music... so little time.... wish the list were longer!
