Another Music Meme
1. The person (or persons) who passed the baton to you.
Kitsune at Wasabi
2. Total volume of music files on your computer.
Of stuff I've actually downloaded? Not counting the random garbage that came with Dell Jukebox? 0.0 GB. For some reason I feel like I need to wait until I have an iPod (sort of a backwards compulsion I have, I guess).
3. The title and artist of the last CD you bought.
Silk Road Journeys: Beyond the Horizon, by Yo-Yo Ma
4. Song playing at the moment of writing.
Could It Be Magic, by Barry Manilow (I put this CD in specifically for the honor of this meme, just to be silly)
5. Five songs you have been listening to of late (or all-time favorites, or particularly personally meaningful songs)
All-time favorite SONG + four other personally meaningful songs:
1) Bridge Over Troubled Water, Simon and Garfunkel (all-time favorite. Phenomenal lyrics, outstanding musicians, written the year I was born)
2) My One Thing, Rich Mullins (my personal anthem by someone who died far too young with too many songs left to write)
3) I Knew I Loved You, Savage Garden (lyrics "I knew I loved you before I met you" significant to me as a mother)
4) Valentine, Martina McBride and Jim Brickman (Leo and I were married on Valentine's Day. 'Nuff said.)
5) Sometimes by Step, Rich Mullins (significance too deep and lengthy to explain in a simple meme...let's just say a song that was a personal theme one summer I spent on the shore of Lake Huron in Michigan's UP)
6. The five unfortunate victims to whom you will afflict with this musical baton.

Lawbrat
Mrtl
Spoonleg

7. Super bonus question (I think Kitsune added this one himself, but I'll bite...)! Do you dance by yourself when you think no one is looking?
Absolutely! I also sing LOUD when I'm in the car by myself; I'm sure other drivers get a kick out of THAT even if they can't hear me.
(For a fun look at Kitsune's inspiration for this question, go here. Use IE to view for best results. And if you don't have broadband, it's worth the wait).

Excellent choices Andrea! You've an ecclectic taste. I really have to get a listen to the yoyoma cd you mentioned. I'm headed over to iTunes right now!
I love you, but I'm not gonna. At least not any time soon. I don't know why, because I LOVE music, many kinds, but this meme doesn't twang me just right.
I came to love "I knew I loved you before I met you" when we were in the process of an adoption that fell apart at the last minute. I still love the song.
I put a bunch of songs in my post yesterday; yea, that's another excuse.
No problem Susie :) Being tagged is always optional (I like to go by MaryBishop's "no rules" philosophy)! Which also means people who are not tagged are also free to participate if they like. Either way...
Y'know, these "tag" memes *are* starting to feel like those "pass it on to 10 people" e-mails, though!
Ahh, Barry Manilow. I saw him in concert back in 1979. We are certainly old now.
I couldn't do this meme for many reasons...it would take me days to make my choices, then I'd probably have to switch them again as I'm the kind of person who hears a great song and says: this is my favorite..till the next song when I say the same thing.
I do like reading memes and seeing your selections..like laurenbove said, eclectic! But I have noticed memes get almost no responses from people, and I wonder why?
