It was suggested that I take the 30 day music challenge. I will readily admit to seeing friends on facebook posting “day 3, song xx” and not having a clue what they were doing..now I know J I have thought about whether I should be posting songs that demonstrate my depth and breadth of music knowledge/appreciation in order to “wow” folk. However I have decided that I can’t maintain that level of pretentiousness for a whole month! So, I think I will just select songs that pop into my head on that day.
The “topics” are pre-determined (by some magical mystical faerie) although having seen the list of the 30 topics I do feel that a few have been missed out..eg best live song, best cover version. I might add these to the end of the challenge J
Those of you who have chatted with me will know that I can happily spend an entire night on youtube hopping through the music videos ending up at some random song at 3am in the morning (apologies for those long suffering friends who have put up with random links to tracks when I’m in one of those moods!) I have a wide ranging taste in music from classical to heavy metal via musicals and I really enjoy seeing bands/gigs live. I will also stand up now and say “Hello my name is Stella and I’m a joviholic” I will readily admit to having had a soft spot for Jovi for the past 20 years – that isn’t going to change any time soon although I promise that I will not post jovi songs for each daily topic.
I am going to try and explain why I've chosen particular songs - so bear with me if i'm babbling on a bit. Also, I don't always get online via the computer choosing to just "check in" via my phone so some days I won't post but will catch up as soon as I can.
