1. your favorite song with the name of a city in the title or text.
philadelphia by springsteen (purely because I decided I wanted to sing it at karaoke)
2. a song you've listened to repeatedly when you were depressed at some point in your life.
westlife – my love
3. ever bought an entire album just for one song and winded up disliking everything but that song? gimme that song.
lilys – can’t remember the album title but it had ‘nanny in manhattan’ (or whatever it was called) on it
4. a song whose lyrics you thought you knew in the past, but about which you later learned you were incorrect.
Fleetwood mac – dreams
‘when the rain washes you clean you’ll know’ to ‘when the rain washes you clean your nose’ which I believed for years
5. your least favorite song on one of your favorite albums of all time.
revol on the holy bible (yeah I like it ALL but this is the least fave on it)
6. song you like by someone you find physically unattractive or otherwise repellent.
ace of spades – motorhead. Lemmy. You wouldn’t, would you?
7. your favorite song that has expletives in it that's not by liz phair.
super furry animals – the man don’t give a fvck
8. a song that sounds as if it's by someone british but isn't.
no blinking clue
9. a song you like (possibly from your past) that took you forever to finally locate a copy of.
screaming jay Hawkins – I put a spell on you (because it took me ages to find out who it was)
10. a song that reminds you of spring but doesn't mention spring at all.
june is bustin’ out all over (I don’t think spring is mentioned? Correct me if I am wrong)
11. a song that sounds to you like being happy feels.
delibes – the flower duet
12. your favorite song from a non-soundtrack compilation album.
afghan whigs – honky’s ladder
13. a song from your past that would be considered politically incorrect now (and possibly was then).
wagner – ride of the valkyries (just cos he was hitler’s fave!)
14. a song sung by an overweight person.
anything by the loaf! I love the loaf! Fave being dead ringer for love
15. a song you actually like by an artist you otherwise hate.
(the new darkness single. I don’t know what it is called. Seems to be a ballad. Bad me…)
16. a song by a band (whose members actually play instruments) that features three or more female members.
one more hour – sleater kinney
17. one of the earliest songs that you can remember listening to.
two little boys – rolf harris
18. a song you've been mocked by friends for liking.
any solo paul mccartney! The frog chorus?
19. a really good cover version you think no one else has heard.
ok I know at least 2 people who heard these with me, but sack trick featuring bruce Dickinson doing ‘delia’ live was something special, as is paul mccartney’s banjo skiffle version of ‘while my guitar gently weeps’
20. a song that has helped cheer you up (or empowered you somehow) after a breakup or otherwise difficult situation.
poison – alice cooper often does the trick
21. a song you've listened to while fvcking/masturbating.
I can’t. I get distracted by the music! Possibly the this is hardcore album by pulp

the beautiful version of ‘crying’ (orig. roy orbison) that is in spanish on the mullholland drive soundtrack *swoon*
23. one song you currently have on heavy rotation.
outkast - hey ya. Not my choice, due to heavy radio rotation. But I love it anyway!
