The Alternative 30 Day Song Challenge

[Postman Dave]

Remember this challenge that swept the internets last year? Well, this is a variation on that one and I'm gonna see what this one drums up. And to keep things challenging, let's say you can't use the same band/artist more than twice. Feel free to join me, even if it's just to participate in one day and we'll see where we end up.

Day 1 - a song that came out the week you were born

Day 2 - a song that you would want to play when you epically win at something

Day 3 - a song from one of your darkest moments in life

Day 4 - a song that you think everybody should hear

Day 5 - a song that your parents hated/or would hate you listening to

Day 6 - a song related to a private joke with your friends

Day 7- a song you think cats would look good dancing to

Day 8 - a song you think dogs would look fantastic dancing to

Day 9 - your favourite song from the 80s

Day 10 - a song that makes you cringe

Day 11 - a song from an album that has your favourite album art

Day 13 - a song that you'd like to be able to play on guitar

Day 14 - a song from your most recently bought album

Day 15 - a song from your primary school days

Day 16 - a song that your parents introduced you to

Day 17 - a song with someones name as the title

Day 18 - a song that describes how you are feeling right now

Day 19 - a song that you told your friends to listen to, but they didn't understand why you thought it was so good

Day 20 - a song that works well in a certain moment in a film

Day 21 - a song from a band you have seen live

Day 26 - a song you would want to skydive to

Day 27 - a summery song

Day 1- November 1st: a song that came out the week you were born

The same as LB, I couldn't find a list of songs released on my week so I went straight for the number one song in this country that week which was Fastlove by George Michael.

 

[Gentleman Jake]

I got a good one Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen

Day 3 (Nov 2nd) - a song from one of your darkest moments in life

Ouch, tough. I suppose I go with when I went to uni for the first time and just wasn't right there. I guess this is more of an upbeat answer than some emo song.

Day 4 (Nov 3rd) - a song that you think everybody should hear

I've pretty much listened to this song every time I'm on the comp these last 3/4 months. As for the artist himself, the more people enjoy him, the better, one of Britain's underrated treasures.

Day 5 (Nov 4th) - a song that your parents hated/or would hate you listening to

Toughest one so far, because my parents have and never will give a fuck about what I listen to. I suppose if something will annoy them it'll be something like this

Anything rap related. My dad thinks its ghetto trashy music so he doesn't like it.

 

[Fuji Vice]

Whoops, a little behind on this but I'll put the first four as if I started on the 1st and then add to the list each day....

Day 1 - a song that came out the week you were born

Not sure if it came out that week but it was number one on the charts at the time....

[video=youtube;cqupk71a-O0]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cqupk71a-O0[/video]

Day 2 - a song that you would want to play when you epically win at something

There's no doubt that it would be this gem from Teen Wolf....

Day 3 - a song from one of your darkest moments in life

I couldn't think of anything deep and profound here, so I went with this, which represents the dark moment in my life when I realized this was a number one hit...

Day 4 - a song that you think everybody should hear

I've probably got a slew of these since I listen to so much obscure stuff, but I'll go with this absolute classic....
