‘Free Bird’ by Lynyard Skynyard

Will always make me think of my Dad and my daughter. I requested this song to be played on the radio for my daughter’s 1st birthday, unfortunately they told me it was too long for the slot but they played Marillion’s ‘Kayleigh’ instead. 1 week ago

‘I Would Do Anthing For Love (but I won’t do that)’ By Meatloaf

A latter song from my relationship with K’s dad. It will always remind me of him and I’m glad that after all these years I still have happy memories.

It does also remind me of my friend D teaching me to drive when we were at uni, we used to listen to Meatloaf (my choice) or Westlife (her choice) full blast whilst driving! 4 months ago

at our church and he regularly will use a main stream song. (Thats what I call them). Me, being a little older, I think I have an advantage perhaps in recognizing these songs. He used this song last week in the service and I absolutely loved it! The choir and other singers did an incredible job. SO uplifting! Love it! “Love is the Answer”

‘Love is All Around’ by Wet Wet Wet

When I got engaged to K’s Dad, this was ‘our’ song. I remember every detail of the dress I wore! We got engaged on the 20th August 1994 when I was a few week away from my 16th birthday. Little did I know I would be pregnant with my wonderful eldest daughter just a few weeks later.

It still brings back happy memories of the last carefree time in my life. 9 months ago

‘Dreams’ by Gabrielle

This song always reminds me of 1993 and a certain boyfriend at that time! I still have a little smile when I hear this song :) 14 months ago

By Savage Garden. This is my husbands and my song. It’s a beautiful sentiment. Everything I give him is signed, Truly, Madly, Deeply in love with you! 3 years ago

By Martina McBride. Because I have 2 teenage daughters. 15 months ago

This is the song I’d like someone to sing at my funeral whenever I have one

Shadows are falling and I’m running out of breath
Keep me in your heart for awhile
If I leave you it doesn’t mean I love you any less
Keep me in your heart for awhile
When you get up in the morning and you see that crazy sun
Keep me in your heart for awhile
There’s a train leaving nightly called when all is said and done
Keep me in your heart for awhile
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-li-li-lo
Keep me in your heart for awhile
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-li-li-lo
Keep me in your heart for awhile
Sometimes when you’re doing simple things
around the house
Maybe you’ll think of me and smile
You know I’m tied to you like the buttons on
your blouse
Keep me in your heart for awhile
Hold me in your thoughts, take me to your dreams
Touch me as I fall into view
When the winter comes keep the fires lit
And I will be right next to you
Engine driver’s headed north to Pleasant Stream
Keep me in your heart for awhile
These wheels keep turning but they’re running out
of steam
Keep me in your heart for awhile
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-li-li-lo
Keep me in your heart for awhile
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-li-li-lo
Keep me in your heart for awhile
Keep me in your heart for awhile 23 months ago

Chisu – Sama Nainen

“Mä muistan kyllä ne kirosanat ja syyttelyn
Ja anteeksi annan jopa sen pahoinpitelyn
Mut mä en lupaa mitään
Mä en lupaa mitään muuta
Oon vielä samanlainen

Jonathan Coulton – Still Alive

“But there’s no sense crying over every mistake
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake
And the Science gets done
And you make a neat gun
For the people who are still alive”23 months ago

Modest Mouse – Spitting Venom

“You were spitting venom at most everyone you know
If the damned gave you a road map then you’d know just where to go
So we carried all the groceries in while hauling out the trash
And if this doesn’t make us motionless I do not know what can”23 months ago

Modest Mouse – Dashboard

“Well we scheme and we scheme but we always blow it
We’ve yet to crash, but we still might as well tow it
Standing at a light switch to each east and west horizon,
Every dawn you’re surprising,
and in the evening one’s consoling
Saying “See it wasn’t quite as bad as”23 months ago

The Frames – Falling Slowly

“Falling slowly, eyes that know me
And I can’t go back
Moods that take me and erase me
And I’m painted black
You have suffered enough
And warred with yourself
It’s time that you won”23 months ago

Modest Mouse – March Into The Sea

“I’ll be beating my heart’s record for speeding
I’ll be beating the record for hearts skipping in the dark
Our tails wagged and then fell off but
We just turned back, marched into the sea
Well, we just turned back, marched into the sea”1 year ago

Modest Mouse – Invisible

“Oh, we had to have some kind
Room shaped like a charm
Well, you weren’t invisible, not all along
No matter how many eagles came in the door
We were not invisible, I knew that”1 year ago

It seems I accidentally marked this goal as done. As far as I can see, there’s no way to undo it, so I guess I’ll have to just “do this again”. 1 year ago

Modest Mouse – Ocean Breathes Salty

“The ocean breathes salty, won’t you carry it in?
In your head, in your mouth, in your soul
And maybe we’ll get lucky and we’ll both grow old
Well I don’t know, I don’t know, I don’t know, I hope so”1 year ago

múm – Blessed Brambles

“Bless the weeds that grow on the yard
just like rain and dust appear
bless the dogs who talk to ferns
let’s, let’s kiss the boys who pee in mud”1 year ago

‘Crazy for You’ by Madonna

I had my first slow dance with my first boyfriend to this song and when a friend asked me a few months later during (lengthy) snogging sessions with my boyfriend, I realised I played this song over and over in my head.

I still get a little tingle when I hear the opening intro :) 2 years ago
