At last, a meme I really like...

[eldritchhobbit]

Gacked shamelessly from llembas

The best meme ever:
I want to have a complete soundtrack with one song from each of my friends. Pick one song (or more if you want) you want me to associate with you, then comment. You don't have to upload it. Just give me the name and artist, and I will find it myself. It can be your favorite song in the whole world, a recent favorite or just a song that you think really identifies you.

Thank you!

You're gonna make me miss you when you go by Madeline Peyroux

Wow! There's so much to choose from... you know, though, the one song that I've always felt identifies me on some sort of primal level is "One Vision" by Queen (on the A Kind of Magic album, with all the Highlander music).

This is an awesome meme!!!

One of my little boy's favorite songs is "Ain't Nobody Gonna Miss Me When I'm Gone," by Ralph Stanley (or maybe the Stanley Brothers?), which is the opposite of your song on so many levels that it makes me giggle!

heee snort...that's so true...

Got to be Meet on the Ledge by Fairport Convention.

Brendan can be either "Inner Smile" by Texas, from the Bend It Like Beckham soundtrack (a perennial favorite song), or as "Mitwa" from the Lagaan soundtrack (current obsessive favorite).

that is one gorgeous icon. and, once again, virginia becomes ever more embedded in my images of you. :)

couple of possibles for me (and this is the list that doesn't endanger you with The Proclaimers [lol]):

* "Throw your arms around me" by Hunters & Collectors (Oz band; not sure if you can easily find this but I can send it to you if you'd like. 1980s angsty ballad)

* "Miss America" by David Byrne

Georgia, by my man Ray.

[agentxpndble.livejournal.com]

Do 'Something Changed' by Pulp for me. One of my favorites and a good one for this particular mix - Not to mention, time of my life... ;-)

[goodnightlady.livejournal.com]

I Could Be So Good For You by Dennis Waterman. And I'll upload it if you need me to because wow, hard to find.

[beledibabe.livejournal.com]

Sting's Desert Rose for me, because I danced to it right after my dance teacher of 20 years died. I could give her no better tribute.

different from Sith's

Hogan's Thing - Simon Haseley
Have love will travel - the Sonics
Midnight Rider - Alan Tam Wing Lun

[terrylj.livejournal.com]

At the moment, it's "I Can Only Imagine" by MercyMe.

"Into the West" - Annie Lennox - ROTK soundtrack :)

For numerous reasons. Numerous numerous, and not only LOTR, but several personal ones.

"God's Gallipoli", by Poi Dog Pondering

I feel this song captures why I make art. When I move my art-making space from one house to another, I always "bless" the new space by playing this song, first thing.

It feels so dishonest to repeat a song I posted somewhere else, but really "Moon River" is one of my favorite songs, because I just love the melody and there are a couple of lines that really get me, especially the one about having so much world to see :-).

[theladyrose.livejournal.com]

Great idea for a meme! For me, I'd pick "The Windmills of Your Mind" as sung by Noel Harrison from the original The Thomas Crown Affair soundtrack or "Summer 78" as sung by Claire Pichet from the Goodbye, Lenin! soundtrack.

Two songs:

Suddenly, Seymour - Rick Moranis, Ellen Green - Little Shop of Horrors Soundtrack. I've felt like Seymour Krelborn most of my life.

Little Conversations - Concrete Blonde - Free. These lines are my writing: You know I never could say anything/In twenty words or less.

Eyes of Blue - Paul Carrack

[galadhir.livejournal.com]

The Man who Sold the World by Bowie, because it reminds me of Hiperbunny's 'Bonds of Choice', which is my favourite Star Wars AU ever.

[bellatook.livejournal.com]

I'm sorry to be such a dork, but my all time favorite song to sing is
"Keep your hands to yourself" by Georgia Satellites...or "Ironic" by Alanis Morrisette.

[eldritchhobbit.livejournal.com]

"Inner Smile" is so perfect for him - I can just see that! (Now I'll always think of Brendan when I hear it.) I have the album of greatest hits by Texas, and it includes that one. I'll admit, though, that I bought the album for this. *grin*

Wow! Would you believe that just this Tuesday I led a discussion of freshmen after showing Goodbye, Lenin! at school? Small world, isn't it? I love your song choices.

Hey, G. Mine would be "Wake Me Up Inside" by Evanescence. Although I am also very fond of "What if God Was One of Us" (Joan Osborne), "Good to Go to Mexico" (Toby Keith), "Runaway Train" (Elton John and Eric Clapton) and "Unforgiven" (Metallica). Angst, spirituality, Party Toby, an outa control life and the search for redemption. Yup, that would be me, eh? And just in the breadth of the choosings, I think there's some kind of statement about being all over the frelling map. ;)

"The Color Green" by Rich Mullins on his "A Liturgy, A Legacy & a Ragamuffin Band" album - it is sheer poetry put to glorious music and speaks so much to my heart.

This is such a neat idea!
