30 Day Song Challenge: day 10 - A Song That Makes You Fall Asleep

Sigur Ros- Hoppipolla

It doesn't make me fall asleep but it is the ultimate chillout song, it does have a lullaby element to it.

30 Day Song Challenge: Day 09 - A Song That You Can Dance To

Miss A- Breathe

I tend to find myself doing the shoulder movements whenever I listen to the song, fortunately this is the only part of the dance I can successfully get away with doing in public

30 Day Song Challenge: Day 08 - A Song That You Know All The Words To

Muse- Bliss

I think it is fairly safe to assume a song that I have listened to and loved for ten years (jeez has it been that long?) would be a song I'd know the words to.

This song is important to me because it opened my ears to music and got me to appreciate the value of an album instead of just listening to a song when a radio station plays it. Kind of ironic that I feel that way and yet I have my own radio show.

30 Day Song Challenge: Day 07 - A Song That Reminds You Of A Certain Event

Guns N Roses- Sweet Child O' Mine

This reminds me of the last wedding I went to specifically because this song came on, the ties were around our heads and the air guitars were out, pity the powersliding ended in some ruined trousers and burnt knees.

This song was then followed up by a Metallica track, can't remember what it was but still, something you don't usually hear a wedding DJ put on.

30 Day Song Challenge: day 06 - A Song That Reminds You Of Somewhere

Scott and Aimee- So Cal Love

A song about California though the song reminds me of a visit to New Brighton a few years ago while trying to make good use of the buss pass I had while I still had it and for nostalgia sakes.

Anyway the song kind of reminds me of a sunrise/sunset (the beginning of the song representing sunrise and the end representing the sunset) though I wasn't really at New Brighton's beach for either.

30 Day Song Challenge: Day 05 A SongThat Reminds You of Someone

Stephanie- Friends

A song about moving on in life often leaving friends or friends leaving you behind. This song reminds me of the best friends who I'm not really in contact with any longer.

30 Day Song Challenge: Day 04 - A Song That Makes You Sad

Cyclone Effect (Acoustic) by Labor Day

The first time I heard this song was during an extremely powerful and moving scene in a show called Kamen Rider W, in which the two main characters, having defeated a deadly foe, were saying their final goodbyes as one of them disappeared from existence and this song just capture the sadness of the scene and the song itself left a lump in my throat when I listened to the song sans the scene, and while it doesn't make me as sad as it used to, I can't help but remember the scene it played under.
