I almost listed today’s selection on Day 14 for the “song no one would expect you to love.” Like 50 Cent (who I chose on Day 14), I’m guessing that most people wouldn’t expect me to love Jay-Z— or his better half, Beyonce— as much as I do. Oh, but I do love them both….

Unlike yesterday, when I interpreted a “song that you listen to when you’re happy” to mean “a song that makes you even HAPPIER,” today I’m interpreting the 30 Day Song Challenge prompt in just the opposite way. When I think of the “songs that I listen to when I’m sad,” I think that even though…

The prompts for today and tomorrow’s 30 Day Song Challenge seem a bit repetitive to me. You may remember that back on Day 3 and Day 4, we were supposed to pick a “song that makes you happy” and a “song that makes you sad,” respectively. And now, on Days 21 and 22, we’re to…

I don’t plan to ever get married, but that doesn’t mean that I (like every other girl in America) haven’t ever thought about what song I would want played at my wedding. When I was younger, I wanted my wedding song to be “Rainbow Connection” (though I prefer the Willie Nelson version to Kermit the…

I can’t believe I made it 25 days into the 30 Day Song Challenge without picking a Johnny Cash song. I could probably do all 30 days of this Challenge ONLY picking Johnny Cash songs. Maybe I’ll start over in July and do that. I suppose it’s appropriate that I finally picked Johnny Cash on…

IT’S A TWO-FER TODAY in the 30 Day Song Challenge!! I just couldn’t pick one so I’m giving you both of my picks for today. That may be kind of a sad commentary on the things I think too much about, since today calls for me to pick a song that I want played at…

It’s Day 14 of the 30 Day Song Challenge, and I’m guessing that I’ve revealed enough about my musical tastes by now for there to be several songs that “no one would expect me to love.” For those of you who were looking for a complete U-turn from my selections on Day 2 (“least favorite…

I don’t actually “hate” a lot of bands, mostly because I don’t really listen to bands that I don’t like long enough to log the emotional time it takes to generate real hatred. For today’s 30 Day Song Challenge selection, I was going to pick a song by Creed… but then I figured everyone with…

Well, no surprises today for the 30 Day Song Challenge. My favorite band of all time is the Rolling Stones. I picked their song “Beast of Burden” on Day 1 of this Challenge, when the rule was to post your favorite song. So, my song choice for today is, I suppose, another favorite song from…

My guess is that a lot of people are going to choose a song that they think is boring for today’s 30 Day Song Challenge selection, which actually calls for “a song that makes you fall asleep.” There are a lot of boring things that make me want to fall asleep– boring movies, boring conversations,…
