Day 22 – A song that you listen to when you’re sad

On an applied linguistics note, some have questioned whether Plastic Bertrand could possibly have sung this song, given the region of Belgium he came from and the way he pronounces certain words in this punk classic.

Day 19 – A song from your favorite album

Unbelievably, this is the twelfth song on the wonderful Superunknown yet this is definitely not a case of saving the best until last. It’s merely one of at least a dozen epic rock tracks on the album.

Day 17 – A song that you hear often on the radio

A radio station that I used to listen to all the time here in Istanbul has started playing this much too often for my liking. I think they’re trying to be kitsch or ironic: they simply suck.

Day 16 – A song that you used to love but now hate

Think about it. This sounds like Engelbert Humperdinck and is a pile of sentimental hogwash. When I was young I managed to convince myself this was good: it isn’t.
