5.  A song that needs to be played LOUD

"YAHYOUHWEI (feat. ZICO)" by Dynamic Duo.

 

 

6.  A song that makes you want to dance

"BANG BANG BANG" by BIGBANG.  Like at first listen I wasn't digging it because I'm not really into pop beats...but then the floor dropped out from under your feet when the chorus hit and I was SOLD.  Brings out my inner black girl rhythm tbh.

9.  A song that makes you happy

"Woods" by Bon Iver.

 

 

10.  A song that makes you sad

"In Every Sunflower" by Bell X1.  Screw my life.

 

 

11.  A song that you never get tired of

"Fire" by Crucial Star.

 

 

12.  A song from your preteen years

"Revelry" by Kings of Leon...Yes, I was That Kid -- The Perpetually Deep Emo Kid Who Understood Dark Themes Before Her Time.

 


13.  One of your favorite 80’s songs

"Money - 1981 re-recording" by Pink Floyd.  Shut up, it counts.

 

 

14.  A song that you would love played at your wedding

"Alpenglow" by S. Carey.

 

 

15.  A song that is a cover by another artist

"Little Wing" by Stevie Ray Vaughan.  Y'all gettin' cultured.

 

 

16.  One of your favorite classical songs

I am a huge fan of the cello so naturally I quite dig Vivaldi's compositions and "Concerto for 2 Cellos in G Minor, RV 531, I. Allegro - II. Largo - III. Allegro" in particular.

 

 

17.  A song that you would sing a duet with on karaoke

The wording of this is so. . . . Anyway, it would probably be "Droplets" by Colbie Caillat and Jason Reeves -- but if you know me well (or follow me on snapchat) you know how much I love to sing, so just about any song will do.

 

 

18.  A song from the year that you were born

"Mo Money Mo Problems" by The Notorious B.I.G.  You're welcome.

20.  A song that has many meanings to you

"I Was a Cloud" by Shearwater

 

 

21.  A favorite song with a person’s name in the title

"Suzanne" by Leonard Cohen.  Good Lord, this man's songwriting is a gift.

 

 

22.  A song that moves you forward

"B.B. Chevelle" by Isbells.  Raise your hand if you get the joke.

 

 

23.  A song that you think everybody should listen to

"Disoranno with Cranberry" by CVCXY.  Actually you should listen to everything by CVCXY.  Drastically underrated duo.

 

 

24.  A song by a band you wish were still together

Perfect segue, guys.  "Eavesdrop" by one of the most beautiful musical duos ever, The Civil Wars.

 

 

25.  A song by an artist no longer living

Jesus Christ, this is still a fresh wound for me.  "Tequila Sunrise" by the Eagles, cowritten and sung by the late Glenn Frey.

 

 

26.  A song that makes you want to fall in love

"In a Week" by Hozier and Karen Crowley.  Oops.  I'm not sorry.  But also I am already in love so it doesn't really matter anyway.  Screw my life.


 

27.  A song that breaks your heart

"Unravel" by Björk.  The delivery of this song is so emotional that I think a lot of people wouldn't be able to handle it.

 

 

28.  A song by an artist with a voice that you love

"Swan in the Water" by Justin Nozuka.

 

 

29.  A song that you remember from your childhood

Unfortunately, it was this song: "Something Like That" by Tim McGraw.  It was the first song I ever learned to sing and I sang it in front of my pastor at the time.  Might explain all the trouble we had with him XD  Also I hate Tim McGraw, jus' sayin'.

 

 

30.  A song that reminds you of yourself

"Here Comes the Anxiety" by The Wombats.  Most anything by The Wombats.

34.  Your epicedium

Anything by Johnny Cash.  But yeah, "1 Corinthians 15:55" by Johnny Cash.

"Maps" by The Front Bottoms.

 

 

37.  A song that reminds you of earth

"Pillars" by Foreign Fields.
