I don't see me properly finishing this. Mainly because I'm struggling to come up with answers for stuff. So I'm just going to rattle off what I can. I may come back for the 'No Idea' ones.

( 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 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 )

Phew. Here is the whole list.

( day 16 - a song that you used to love but now hate )

The whole list

Presented without comment:

( X-Press 2 ft. David Byrne - Lazy )

Found this difficult. Trying to think of anything I like that might come as a surprise to anyone. I think part of that is the way I think. I like it therefore why would it be surprising that I like it. It's no surprise that I like cheesy one-hit stuff that others mock. I was tempted by Roachford's Cuddly Toy but I think that's just that it's a track from the 80s that doesn't tend to get as much 80s nostalgia as others. In the end I'm going with the first thing that popped into my head for this topic. One that I was surprised to find myself liking when I kept hearing it on the radio, when I found out who it was:

( Will Young - Leave Right Now )

Oh dear, I have a number of guilty pleasures in my CD collection. I think the earliest acquisition was Whigfield's Saturday Night. I also have Shampoo's Trouble. I'm sure there's more. However, I'm going to go with one I don't have in my collection, though I have gone looking on occasion. I've no idea what they're even singing, though I believe the song title translates as Chinese Eyes:

( China Dolls - Muay Nee Kha )

Nasty one this. The whole point of something you hate is you avoid it. So having to think of this stuff is difficult. I'm going to go with my first choice so sparing people the joys of Wig Wam Bam or Agadoo. Instead, I'm going with Iron Maiden. Very popular with most of my friends in the sixth form but I've never rate them. And they seem to be a gateway band for heavier rock/metal/thrash which also doesn't interest me. So yeah, not an Iron Maiden fan.

( Iron Maiden - Number of the Beast )

Tricky one this. Not because I don't have a favourite band (which I am choosing to interpret as including artist), but because I find it difficult to chose a song. There's not a single thing she's done that I don't like, Yodelling Song included. The track I've chosen is the most recent one that stood out for me more than others and hence remembered.

( Tanita Tikaram - Amore Si )

This is a tricky one as I pretty much can't fall asleep to music. I will zone out completely but then I'll come to again because the music is still playing. I do know without a doubt that the best music to wake up to is Golden Brown. There's two bits of music I do play when lying in bed ready for sleep though. daydreamweaver has already stolen one of them (Halycon On and On) which is usually the point in the Hackers soundtrack I hit the zone out but not actually fall asleep point. So I'll go with this instead:

( Claire de Lune - Debussy )

It's just a jump to the left. No, not that one, too easy. I used to know the moves to both Saturday Night and Macarena. These days mostly I don't dance, but back when I did this is one track that would get me on the dance floor:

( 2nd Floor - Creatures )

There are quite a few that I expect I can get about 90+% right. But I tend to have to be actually listening to the song to get the lyrics in my head. I'd guess Bohemian Rhapsody is the most obvious one what with that sneaky devil and his sideboard. Then there's Aztec Camera's Somewhere in my Heart which got played to death on tape when I was a kid and was probably amongst the first music I started listening to. But I'm going to go with this one, that was on MTV a lot (remember back when it showed music videos?) during my first year at Uni if I remember rightly. Tin roof, Rusted!

( Love Shack - The B-52's )
