Yeah so that song challenge thing...

It didn't work out. Too many requests for songs I don't like, and I finally reached the point of "why even...?"

I don't like going out of my way to find stuff I don't like. Goes against the grain.

Anyway, so I'm not finishing that.

However, I do have stuff to write about, which I've been holding off on because I feel bad about not finishing that challenge.

Well, too bad for those songs. I've got better stuff to talk about.

Going to Lagoon tomorrow, so I'm sure to have an adventure to write about on Saturday. :D

Day 21

Day 21: A Song you listen to when you're Happy

Any of the songs listed thus far.

That was easy. :D



Sorry, I could list one but it's not really going to be any different from the stuff I've already listed. I don't have specific songs for specific emotions, I just listen to music. Same music, all the time, no matter the situation.

30 Day Song Challenge Catch-up Day

Wow, 6 days. I've got some catching up to do.

It was Day 15 that got me. A song that describes me? Uh... yeah, can't think of one. I've been trying for nearly a week now. I've just got to skip that for now. Suggestions are welcome.

As for the other 5 days:

Day 16 - A Song that you Used to Love but Now Hate

Yeah... don't know about that one either. The music I've listened to throughout my life has remained pretty limited, and changed very little, if at all. Skippity skip.

Day 17 - A Song that you Hear Often on the Radio

I don't listen to the radio much, but I can certainly answer this. Because every time I turn on the radio... it's this:




Day 18 - A Song that you Wish you Heard on the Radio

Oh geez, so many. How about this?



Why isn't there a Disney music station on the radio?

Oh, there is?

Are you sure?

Okay, I mean a Disney Princess Movie music station. A station that plays purely music from Disney animated movies (and includes Enchanted P:). No Jonas Brothers, no Hannah Montana, no other random Disney Channel whatever-I-don't-want-to-hear-you-singers, no popular singers from other genres.

Just Disney movie music.

That would be a Disney music station. We don't have one. I want one.


Day 19 - A Song from your Favorite Album

Let's hear some more Martina McBride. I don't necessarily have a favorite album- from her or other groups- but I do love her music to death, and this song is probably my top favorite by her.




Day 20 - A Song that you Listen to When you’re Angry

Also a toughie, since I'm rarely angry, and when I am, it's at a time that I have no access to music.

But when anger and music availability do coincide, I generally listen to very soothing songs. Usually I listen to Celtic Women, but since I've been really enjoying a different song lately, and it fits the sort of music I listen to when I'm mad, I'll post it:

Lothlorien, from the Lord of the Rings musical

Days 13 and 14

Day 13: A Song that is a Guilty Pleasure

This isn't so much a song as a genre. Missa introduced me to it, and I fell in love incredibly quickly. What is it?





Contemporary opera.

Amici Forever is an incredible group, and gave me a new respect for opera music. While I've always been fond of classical, there's something about opera that just requires making fun of. But man, are the people in it amazing despite.

Amici calls themselves "the opera band", and it's a really enjoyable form of opera. I highly recommend them.

Day 14: A Song that No One would expect You to Love

I know I've posted this song before on this blog, but I think it's about all I've got. I'm generally pretty predictable in my music tastes.

Futuristic Romance by Katy Perry



It's very possible that I only love song because someone made a Megamind video to it, but whatever. My music tastes were expanded. P:

Day 12

Day 12: A Song from a Band you Hate

This is a toughie, considering that if I "hate" a band, I keep away from it and so when I'm asked about it, I don't have a clue. I don't really hate any bands; there are simply those I pay attention to, and those I don't.

While I'm sure I could just grab something from a random noisy group that makes noise I dislike, it's hardly hate when I don't know a thing about them.

So I'll just post a song that gets really annoying fast. :D

The Spectrum Song, from Disney (sung by Professor Ludwig von Drake)



Red yellow green red blue...

Day 11

Day 11: A Song from your Favorite Band

Okay, this'll be the last Groovelily song for a while.

But they are my favorite band. They're pretty much the only band I listen to (unless you count singers as bands, like Martina McBride and Brad Paisley, then... they're one of like, four.)

Well, I guess there is Lonestar, but I'm not sure they're still a band. So they don't count.

Anyway, the song.

Sister Siren

One of my favorites, because I'm a mermaid/siren obsessed girl and so I love this song. XD It's very 90s, but still one of my faves.

Days 9 & 10

Both songs today come from Groovelily's musical Sleeping Beauty Wakes.

Day 9: A Song that You can Dance to

I Dare Say I'm in Love

I dare say I can dance to this one. I do it all the time, lol. When I'm home alone, anyway. I don't ever dance around people because I have a tendency to... injure them.

I'm not that great a dancer. But I love this song.

People with a combination long memory and loyalty (aka have been reading this blog from the start) may remember that I posted this song on my very first grumpy blog to brighten the mood a bit. Because I love this song. :D


Day 10: A Song that makes You Fall Asleep

Ironically, the song for today is:

You Make me Feel Awake

It has a very sleepy feeling to it, despite the title. It's never really made me fall asleep, but... it feels like it could. I don't know of any songs that do make me fall asleep. I don't even listen to music when I'm going to sleep, and my Mom's bouncy Norwegian lullabies (well, I don't think they were lullabies, they were just random songs about a mouse that flew around with an umbrella or something... I don't remember that well) of course never put me to sleep. xD

So this'll have to do. Enjoy.
