jon_chaissonAudience participation time! :)
I'm curious...make a list here or on your own LJ of songs that are your favorites or have stuck with you over time that you never get sick of. Make it as long or as short as you like! Any genre. You can even explain why you like it...perhaps it brings back fond memories, or you're simply a music nerd who loves the way it was produced or arranged. New songs or old, goofy or serious, short or epic.
Why do I ask?
Just a writing side-project that popped into my head the other day...it kind of ties in with some ideas I have about doing a book about loving music, and not in the form of a dry academic tome...more of a fun 'list' book. Of course this also ties in with my other side-project idea of writing about 80s alt-rock (more on that in a future post).
That, and I'm curious as well. :)
As for me, I'm currently at work, so I'll have to make my list tomorrow on my day off and can spend too much time on it. :D
