I started this challenge back in May 2011 and as much as it may have been ok on Facebook, putting all these posts on my website didn’t work so well. So, here I am, almost a year on and with Day 27. My automatic answer to this would usually be Sweet Child O’ Mine by [...]

30 Day Song Challenge Day 26: A song you can play on an instrument
August 23rd, 2011
No Comments
The obvious choice would be Wanted Dead or Alive by Bon Jovi as it’s the first song I learned when I started guitar lessons a few years ago. However, we’ve had a few Bon Jovi songs already in this series of posts, so instead I am going for Snow Patrol. This is a song that [...]
30 Day Song Challenge Day 25: A Song That Makes You Laugh
July 25th, 2011

I’ve already posted a Weird Al Yankovic song so now I am going back to 1986 and a classic Spitting Image song which was the main reason I bought the Spit in Your Ear album. The sad thing is that 25 years later and I still know all the words. Hold a chicken in the air…
30 Day Song Challenge Day 24 – A Song That You Want Played At Your Funeral
July 24th, 2011

Nice morbid way to start they day. This is very clichéd for a Bon Jovi fan but there really is only one possible song for me. One of my favourite songs of all time and the perfect song for the occasion. My second choice would also be a Bon Jovi song and I’m going to cheat and post a second [...]
30 Day Song Challenge Day 23 – A Song That You Want To Play At Your Wedding
July 23rd, 2011
No Comments
Well my wedding was in December 2003 and I actually made a mix CD – no, I didn’t have an iPod at the time so a playlist was beyond my capabilities. I can remember quite a few of the songs on that CD but not all of them, and to save myself from having to [...]
30 Day Song Challenge Day 22 – A Song That You Listen To When You’re Sad
July 21st, 2011

I got a bit bored with this series so I stopped for a while, but now I’m back. The main reason I resurrected it was because I knew that the next song was one to play when I’m sad, and I discovered the perfect song only today. You can read all about my thoughts on [...]
30 Day Song Challenge Day 21 – A Song That You Listen To When You’re Happy
June 10th, 2011

I’m getting a bit bored of this now, which isn’t really what I should be writing, but I’m not kidding myself anyone is actually reading! I don’t really have music I listen to for different moods. I generally just scroll down the album listing and see what jumps out at me. I’m going to change this to [...]
30 Day Song Challenge Day 20 – A Song That You Listen To When You’re Angry
June 9th, 2011
No Comments
I’m not really one for getting angry that often and it soon passes, far too quickly for me to think about playing music to get over my anger at any rate. However, if I were to need a song to get over my anger it would probably be something by Weird Al Yankovic, and being [...]
30 Day Song Challenge Day 19 – A Song From Your Favourite Album
June 8th, 2011
No Comments
There’s a constant battle going on in my mind as to whether Slippery When Wet or New Jersey is my favourite album, both by Bon Jovi. At this moment in time it’s New Jersey. Lay Your Hands On Me, Bad Medicine and Born To Be My Baby would be the obvious choices but it’s actually [...]
30 Day Song Challenge Day 18 – A Song That You Wish You Heard On The Radio
June 8th, 2011

I’m a day late with this one as I was concentrating on a new blog post for Dedicated to Disneyland Paris last night. This is a song that I did first hear on the radio but haven’t heard since, on the radio, and is one I wish they’d play more often. Last spring I heard [...]
