Yes the ones later on are just "pick a song" rather than "pick the song" so they should be much easier and more open to joke posts :)

Favourite Song is a bit of a killer for an opening. I'm going to go with Solid Air by John Martyn.

Day 2 - Your Least Favourite Song

Naive - The Kooks

It would actually be an OK song if someone else was singing it, without all that deliberately mispronouncing words because they're so like cool and ironic.

All time favourite song:Tired Horses by Stafford Galli.
Much better live than on CD though.

Least favourite - Sweet Child of Mine by Guns and Roses

I quite strongly dislike this track on many levels. Firstly it's just terrible as a track, secondly many people seem to rave about, and thirdly people seem to think it's what I am referring to if I talk about Sweet Child in Time by Deep Purple, despite the Deep Purple being quite a lot older.

Day 2 - Least favourite song.

U2 - Pride (In the Name of Love), though it could have been any of U2's output.

I can understand why a lot of people would dislike that song, I really can, but for so many people it just feels right :)

since i missed day 2, my least favourite song:

the offspring - the kids arent alright (wiseguys remix). its from the special edition of their greatest hits, sounds utterly crap compared to the rest of the album and hides the totally awesome bonus track: a cover of the police - next to you :cry:

day 3, a song that makes me happy:

the offspring - next to you (cover of the police) :lol:

Day 6
I just called to say I love you. (by ?)
Reminds me of Majorca in the 80's.

Day 4 - A Song That Makes You Sad

One Perfect Sunrise - Orbital

A nicely paced mixture of Orbital and some beautiful vocals, makes me feel nostalgic about my trip in South America, I know it's a bit of a cliché after Gladiator, but for me it just works.
