30 Days Of Me - Day Fifteen

Put your iPod on shuffle: First 10 songs that play

Ooh I do enjoy music ones. OK here goes

  1. This Year's Love by David Gray
    This is from Erik's CD collection, I do enjoy some David Gray.. nice mellowing music (which I like to sing along to. My fave of his is probably Sail Away, which I know Erik loves too)
  2. Goodbye Tonight by Lost Prophets
    Don't think I listened to this song much before, was one of the ones that a friend gave me. I should probably give this album a listen.. I like some of their other songs that another friend put on mixtapes for me.
  3. Misunderstood by Better Than Ezra
    Love this song.. sent to be by my Canadian writer/BookCrossing buddy Jamie. The reason she sent it to me was after a rather strange chat conversation that we had with Jay and possibly someone else about a misunderstood demon.. yeah my memory of that chat is a little fuzzy. Anyway I used to listen to this song a lot and think it will be going on my playlist for NaNoWriMo this year.
  4. We Want More by The Living End
    Ah The Living End.. seeing them live at The Civic in Christchurch still rates as one of the best gigs I have ever been to. I do like this song but it isn't one of my favourites. I used to have a copy of their first album on a dubbed tape and would bounce around the hallway at the flat we were living in at the time listening to it on my Walkman.. I remember telling Chris (Cheney, the lead singer) this when I met them after the show at The Civic... embarrassing.
  5. Who Needs The Kwik-E-Mart? by The Simpsons
    I downloaded a heap of the songs from The Simpsons a few years ago.. I think it was from this site and enjoy listening to them when they pop up on shuffle. Still one of my favourite TV shows. "Let's hurl a brick-e-mart"
  6. Dead and Broken by Alkaline Trio
    Alkaline Trio are another one of my favourite bands... who I hope to see at No Sleep Til later this year. They're the band that I took the Alkaline from in my username. What else can I say? I haven't listened to them much lately.
  7. Silver and Cold by AFI
    Was really really into this song when I first got this album and now listening to it (and yes I am singing along.. Erik just looked up at me with a strange expression) I have the urge to dance too.. ok next song
  8. Penguins & Polarbears by Millencolin
    I was listening to this album (Pennybridge Pioneers) just recently while lugging groceries home from the supermarket.. I think I bought this album when I was in high school (and heavily into pop-punk music evidently). I used to have a penpal called Dan who used to make me these amazing mixtapes (which I still have somewhere) and he got me into a lot of bands, Millencolin being one of them.
  9. Foux du Fafa by Flight of the Conchords
    The first NZ band that has come up on my shuffle, it took a couple of listens for this album to grow on me and now I love it. This is not one of my favourites on the album but still enjoy it. And yes I have sung along to it in the past.
  10. Are You Waiting by Stellar*
    And another Kiwi band, Stellar* being one of the first NZ bands I got into. Final show in Auckland next week which I should get a ticket to for nostalgia's sake (that and I still do enjoy their music)
