30 Day Song Challenge

Day 01: Your Favourite Song
Ben E. King - Stand By Me

I don't really know what I can say about this song. If you're familiar with it then you'll know how wonderful it is. If you're not, then you must listen! :)
The film of the same name is also brilliant.

Day 02: Your Least Favourite Song
Gerry & The Pacemakers - You'll Never Walk Alone

I actually think it's a lovely song, but being a huge Everton fan I dislike it's association with Liverpool Football Club and so when I hear it, in relation to them, it annoys me :(

Day 03: A Song that Makes You Happy
George Harrison - Got My Mind Set On You

I love this song and I love my favourite Beatle George. This song has always made me happy from the first time I heard it, when I was little :)

Day 04: A Song the Makes You Sad
Paolo Nutini - Rewind

I could have picked from a few different songs, but I've gone with this one by Paolo, as it's just a lovely little song and I think he has a gorgeous voice, but this one just makes me feel a little sad.

Day 05: A Song that Reminds You of Someone
R.E.M. - Losing My Religion

Reminds me of my mum :)

Day 06: A Song that Reminds You of Somewhere
Cast - Alight

I could have picked any of the songs from this album. Reminds me of going to Liverpool in the school holidays to visit my grandparents :)

Day 07: A Song that Reminds You of a Certain Event
The Farm - All Together Now

I struggled with this day, so went with this song. It reminds me of going to Wembley with my uncle to see the 2009 FA Cup semi-final, where Everton beat Manchester United. But it 's played at every home game, so reminds me of match days :D

Day 08: A Song that You Know All the Words To.
Elton John - Tiny Dancer

I can't think if there's a song I'd know all the words to without the song actually being on, hehe. But, I chose this because I like singing along to it and I love the bit in Almost Famous where they all sing along :)

Day 09: A Song that You Can Dance To.
The Coral - Dreaming of You

Too many songs to choose from! I think I changed my mind about 20 times. I love to dance to any song, but I don't think anyone else would call it dancing :) Anyway, this one is fun.

Day 10: A song That Makes You Fall Asleep
Ray LaMontagne - Within You

Beautiful :)

Day 11: A Song From Your Favourite Band
The Beatles - Twist and Shout

I just picked this one because it's fun and cheers me up. Paul & George make me laugh in this performance. I love the rawness of John's voice too.

Day 12: A Song From a Band You Hate
Scouting for Girls - She's so Lovely.

Toot.

Day 13: A Song That is a Guilty Pleasure
Girls Aloud - Can't Speak French

Girls Aloud are my favourite pop group :) I don't really feel that guilty, although when this came out I think I might have played it a bit too much! :D

Day 14: A Song That No One Would Expect You to Love
Samuel Barber - Adagio for Strings, op. 11

I don't really know what people wouldn't expect. I like to listen to all sorts of music, so I've picked something that is a bit different from anything else on this list.

Day 15: A Song That Describes You
Shed Seven - Chasing Rainbows

:)

Day 16: A Song That You Used To Love But Now Hate
Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit

I couldn't think of anything at all for this one! Very tricky. I never really love loved this song, but it was always so overplayed that it annoys me a bit and I've always thought they had other songs more worthy of being played once in a while.

Day 17: A Song That You Often Hear on the Radio
Adele - Someone Like You

I don't really listen to much music radio, but I hear this here, there and everywhere. It's a lovely song :)

Day 18: A Song that You Wish You Heard on the Radio
The Bluetones - If...

I couldn't decide between this, Slight Return and Bluetonic so chose at random and this won :)

Day 19: A Song From Your Favourite Album
The Libertines - Up the Bracket

I don't think I have a favourite album really and I'm trying to include as many different artists on the list as possible (we'll see if that works!) I loved this album when it came out and played it all the time, so went for Up the Bracket! :)

Day 20: A Song that You Listen to When You're Angry
Whitesnake - Here I Go Again

Great, uplifting!! :)

Day 21: A Song You Listen to When You're Happy
Journey - Don't Stop Believin'

I love this song, always pop it on when I'm happy and it's the perfect song for an Everton fan - "Some will win, some will lose, some were born to sing the blues"

Day 22: A Song You Listen to When You're Sad
The Seahorses - Blinded By the Sun

Day 23 - A Song to Play at My Wedding
Oasis - Slide Away

I could have gone for something obvious, but thought I'd go with one of my favourite Oasis songs. I wanted to fit it in somewhere :)
