(14/365) A song you like that’s instrumental only: This was my jam in 1998. My friends didn’t get it, but I knew it kicked ass, even if it was almost 20 years old back then.

(13/365) A song that reminds you of a past love: Sometimes the only good thing that comes from a former relationship is music. I was told about this band early in 2001, got into Swagger, and saw them live right after they had finished recording Drunken Lullabies. They performed the songs from that album live for the first time, and I was there for it. So for that, I am grateful for the relationship, because I would have missed out otherwise.

(12/365) A song you play when your getting ready to get your confidence up: I think this song alone has validated the entire SP comeback. This to me is the pinnacle of the new era of SP. How could you not get into this song? How could you not feel like you can do anything after hearing it?

(11/365) A song you indulge in shameless self pity to: This song came up after a death of someone I knew, and I can honestly say this song made me cry. I can’t think of any other song that has done that to me. It’s hard to listen to the whole thing without getting at least a little sad.

(9/365) A song that if someone said they liked it, you would like them a little bit more: This song could have also been what makes me happy. It’s an infectious song that cuts through any bullshit.

(8/365) Your least favorite song from your favorite band: What can I say about this song? It made me wish they went back to the Adore sound, for one. It’s such a disappointment. I could have made a better song than this, it’s so boring. Then you have the played out sentiment of selling records when you’re dead. Got it, I really do understand, you’re only the millionth person to point that out. Shitty solo thrown in there. So many reasons I hate this song. I was also considering Glass and the Ghost Children with the pontification breakdown in the middle, but at least that was original. This is the sound of a band that gave up.

(7/365) A song that wrenches your heart out from sadness: This is such a beautiful song. It makes me happy to be alive and be able to hear it.

(6/365) A song from an Artist you discovered from a TV show: I watched “You Can’t Do That On Television” reruns on Nickelodeon as a kid. What a great show that was. It’s still fun to watch today. Anyways, Alanis was on that show. This is probably my favorite song of hers.
