I Totally Missed It

October 21, 2006 by

Uh Oh … Gabrielle tagged me and I completely missed it… So, I’m redressing the balance… I’ve much to post about my holidays… I’m still getting to grips with being at home (sniff)… until then, here are my answers to the song meme…
Five songs that remind you of being a small child:

  1. Going Down the Garden to Eat Worms
  2. Tie A Yellow Ribbon Round the Old Oak Tree
  3. Going to the Zoo
  4. Blowing in the Wind
  5. Anything off Abba’s arrival album (Ok so I wasn’t VERY small…)

Most of these songs are ones Dad would sing in the evenings when he pulled out his guitar and we were off to bed… he sings them still… to my niece and nephews… awwww.
Three Songs That Remind You of Your Best Friends:

  1. Tuxedo Junction – Manhattan Transfer
  2. Java Jive – Manhattan Transfer too! (Kirky… wasn’t that a great gig?)
  3. Head Over Feet – Alanis Morissette (Pash… I’ve never walked down the aisle to a cooler song…)

Now, if you’d asked me about the food? I’d remember…
Three Songs that remind you of when you first started going to bars/clubs:

  1. Dancing Queen – ABBA
  2. Funky Town – Pseudo Echo
  3. Wake Me Up Before you Go Go – Wham

I didn’t go to clubs that much… could never find anything to wear!
Two Songs Guaranteed to Make You Cry or, if you’re too manly to cry, mist up:

  1. Goodbye My Lover – James Blunt (I know, uncool in the extreme)
  2. Georgia On My Mind – Ray Charles

Only two… I’m just not that much of a sap!!!
Four Songs Guaranteed to Make You Smile:

  1. Your Smiling Face – James Taylor (My Happy Song)
  2. Don’t Dream it’s Over – Crowded House (My Homesick Song)
  3. Don’t Worry Be Happy – Bobby McFerrin
  4. Endless Summer Nights – Richard Marx… It was the soundtrack to my US tour in ’88

Five Current Most Played Songs:

  1. Somewhere Only We Know – Keane
  2. Whenever I Say Your Name – Sting feat. Mary J Blige
  3. Big Lie, Small World – Sting
  4. How Great Is Our God – Chris Tomlin
  5. 21st Century Kid – Jamie Cullum

    Hey! You did a US tour in 88? Me too! My first! And the wedding sounds extremely cool. I heart the internet, too.
