I failed the 30 day Song Challenge, clearly, but I was on a roll for about two weeks. Maybe we’ll just call it the 15-day song challenge.
I saw this on Kottke today and I had to share.
Miles Davis’s So What with animated sheet music.

Day 15: A song that describes you
I let my geek flag fly. Frequently. The ladies love it.
She blinded me with science. She blinded me with science!
She Blinded Me with Science – Thomas Dolby
Day 14: A song that no one would expect you to love
I love this Katy Perry Song. I LOVE IT. My daughter and I do parody versions all the time, replacing the words with what we actually did that day.
Last Friday Night – Katy Perry
Day 13: A song that is a guilty pleasure
This place about ta…. BLoooooOOOOOoooooW
And this video is pretty awesome. Unicorns, shooting rainbows, sexiness.

I hate a lot of bands. Umm.. Let’s see. Who can I pick on? Nickelback? My Lord, they suck.
Photograph – Nickelback

Day 10: A song that makes you fall asleep
Coltrane can put me right to sleep.
Slow Dance – John Coltrane with The Red Garland Trio
Day 9: A song that you can dance to
Is there a song that I can’t dance to?
Don’t walk away, boi… My love won’t hurt you…
Don’t Walk Away – Jade
Day 8: A song that you know all the words to
I especially love all of the sideways looks I get when I flow this song from start to finish.
Don’t pull the thang out unless you plan to bang. Don’t even bang unless you plan to hit somethang.
B.O.B – Outkast
Day 7: A song that reminds you of a certain event
This song always reminds me of the time that I was working at a record store in St. Louis. When no one could agree on what to play at the store The Flaming Lips were a good alternative.
Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots – Flaming Lips
Day 6: A song that reminds of you of somewhere
Nashville. Maybe because it has the word Nashville in it?
New York City’s Killing Me – Ray LaMontagne
Day 5: A song that reminds you of someone
This is a strange topic as I would think that most songs would remind you of someone. Well… I hate to say it, but this one’s brought to you by Chris Brown. At least the video is ill and has some killer dance moves.
Yo, Excuse Me Miss by Chris Brown
Day 4: A song that makes you sad
A song that makes me sad? There are a lot of Disney songs that can turn me into a wreck. I am so high from writing yesterday’s post and listening to “Down” that I can barely think of a song that makes me sad. Oh yeah, except for that song from Dumbo. What a tear jerk.
Baby Mine
Day 3: A song that makes you happy
I have been known to drop whatever I am doing and begin randomly singing this song. God help me if it comes on in a bar or in a store. I have been seen dancing down aisles, singing along, and possibly fist pumping. I could be in the worst mood ever and this song will come on and completely turn everything around. This song makes me HAPPY. It’s the beat. It’s the flow. It’s the down, down, down, down, down …dooooooown doooooooooown.
Down by Jay Sean ft Lil Wayne
