Something Good This Way Comes

Merrie at Sleepless Mornings has the best memes.  She should totally be your new go to girl for memes.  I’ve recently declared her mine.  My go to girl for memes that is.  She’s not mine-mine.  You know what I mean.  Anyway…

She did this one the other day and I thought it looked like a ton of fun.  Basically you grab your iPod and you put your music on to shuffle.  This part works out well for me seeing as how I don’t have a regular iPod, but I do have the Shuffle.  You copy down the questions.  To answer them, you just jot down the title and artist of the song that plays.  She had some more specific instructions but I’m paraphrasing.  You get the idea right?

So here’s what I came up with:

If someone says, “Is this okay?” you say?  Come On Get Higher by Matt Nathanson

What best describes your personality?  Free fallin’ (the John Mayer version)

What do you look for in a guy?  The Way I Am by Ingrid Michaelson (excuse the commentary but Oh. My. Goodness.  you have no idea how true that is).

How do you feel today?  Fire and Rain by James Taylor

What is your life’s purpose?  I Don’t Trust Myself by John Mayer

What is your motto?  Pocket Full of Sunshine by Natasha Bedingfield

What do your friends think of you?  I Sure Can Smell the Rain by Blackhawk

What do you think about often?  Picture by Kid Rock/Sheryl Crow

What do you think of your best friend?  Stop This Train by John Mayer

What do you think of the person you like (in my case I’m assuming this refers to the person I married)?  White Flag by Dido

What is your life story?  Stupid Boy by Keith Urban (More commentary: I’m not one but I’ve sure come across my fair share!)

What do you want to be when you grow up?  Take Care of You by Billy Dean

What do you think when you see the person you like?  Belief by John Mayer

What do your parents think of you?  The Long Way Around the Dixie Chicks

What will you dance to at your wedding?  Clarity by John Mayer

What will they play at your funeral?  Lullaby by The Dixie Chicks

What do you think of your friends?  Big Girls Don’t Cry by Fergie

How will you die?  Hotel California by The Eagles

What is the one thing you regret?  Take It Easy The Eagles

What makes you laugh?  Boys With Girlfriends by Meiko

What makes you cry?  Say by John Mayer

Will you ever get married?  Love Remains The Same by Gavin Rosdale

What scares you the most?  Good Directions by Billy Currington

If you could go back in time what would you change?  Everybody Knows by the Dixie Chicks

What hurts right now?  Say Hey by Michael Franti

What will you post this as?  Something Good This Way Comes by Jakob Dylan

See?!  Wasn’t that fun?  You should try it.

Wow. I know a grand total of 6 out of those 29 songs. I will be googling a few though! :)

Fun meme, I may steal that one myself. I agree, Merrie does have great ones!

The Way I Am by Ingrid Michaelson…fantastic song, one of those that I wish I had written because it expresses what I want to say so beautifully. Really fun meme!

I love it! I hope other people do it — wasn’t it fun?? I just cracked myself up when I was doing mine.
Sorry I haven’t visited in a while — I’ve been so busy with work that I’ve allowed my blog reading to fall to the wayside. Really, WHERE are my priorities? I’m working on it, I swear.

Thanks for the meme love! :)
