Yeah, I know, I’m nearly a year late to the party! But this internet meme/challenge has only just come to my attention through a post on the message boards over on DrownedInSound.com (plus, I wasn’t blogging a year ago!) and I thought it might be a good way of getting me to do regular posts (not that mine are particularly infrequent). Anyway, it’s a challenge to pick a different song for a different category every day for thirty days. The categories are;
Day 1 – Your favourite song
Day 2 – Your least favourite song
Day 3 – A song that makes you happy
Day 4 – A song that makes you sad
Day 5 – A song that reminds you of someone
Day 6 – A song that reminds you of somewhere
Day 7 – A song that reminds you of a certain event
Day 8 – A song that you know all the words to
Day 9 – A song that you can dance to
Day 10 – A song that makes you fall asleep
Day 11 – A song from your favourite band
Day 12 – A song from a band you hate
Day 13 – A song that is a guilty pleasure
Day 14 – A song that no one would expect you to love
Day 15 – A song that describes you
Day 16 – A song that you used to love but now hate
Day 17 – A song that you hear often on the radio
Day 18 – A song that you wish you heard on the radio
Day 19 – A song from your favourite album
Day 20 – A song that you listen to when you’re angry
Day 21 – A song that you listen to when you’re happy
Day 22 – A song that you listen to when you’re sad
Day 23 – A song that you want played at your wedding
Day 24 – A song that you want played at your funeral
Day 25 – A song that makes you laugh
Day 26 – A song that you can play on an instrument
Day 27 – A song that you wish you could play
Day 28 – A song that makes you feel guilty
Day 29 – A song from your childhood
Day 30 – Your favourite song from this time last year
Now some of those categories are going to be very difficult, not least the first one, but I will do my best. I will say now that I will try to do a post every day but this may slip, or I may just finish it up in one big post if I get bored with the whole thing!
I have a track in mind for the Day 1 post and I may well post this later tonight. Watch this space!

Oooh, this is going to be interesting! Day 5 would be a nightmare for me, I pretty much have a song for everyone!! Looking forward to your choices, and hopefully they’ll all be accompanied by a rationale for their selection?? 🙂

Yeah, I’m going to have real problems with some of these! 5, 6 & 7 are going to be tough!
