Fun Friday–You Give Love a Bad Name
I haven’t done a meme for a Fun Friday post in a long time. I did this one on Facebook a couple of years ago, so it seems like a good time to resurrect it. (You’ll understand the post’s title when you see the last question.)
1. Put your iTunes/Windows Media Player on shuffle with your entire music library selected.
2. For each question, press the next button to get your answer.
3. YOU MUST WRITE THAT SONG NAME DOWN NO MATTER HOW SILLY IT SOUNDS!
4. Make a fun/silly/witty comment on your answer.
5. Feel free to post your answers in the comments; or if you do this meme on your site, please come back and post a link.
1. What is your motto?
“Barbossa Is Hungry” (by Klaus Badelt from the Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl soundtrack)
Maybe that’s why I can’t seem to lose weight.
2.What do your friends think of you?
“I Found a Friend” (recorded by Gordon McCrae and Jo Stafford)
Obviously.
3.What do you think about very often?
“A Person Can Change” (from the Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day soundtrack)
Don’t know that I really think about that all that often, but I do believe it.
4. What is 2+2?
“More” (recorded by Bobby Darin)
Seriously—this is the song that came up on this click! Could it be any more perfect?.
5.What do you think of your best friend?
“You Make Me Feel So Young” (recorded by Frank Sinatra)
Isn’t that what a best friend should do for you?
6.What do you think of the person you like?
“Unaccompanied Cello Suite No. 1 in G Major” (J.S. Bach, recorded by Yo-Yo Ma)
Appropriate, since there isn’t a romantic interest in my life currently (or even in the recent past)
7. What is your life story?
“Benundrum” (by Michael Giacchino from the LOST: Season 4 soundtrack)
Hmmm . . . a song title that’s a play on the word conundrum. Pretty fitting, actually.
8.What do you want to be when you grow up?
“To Die for Love” (by Patrick Doyle from the Sense & Sensibility soundtrack)
I hope not!
9.What do you think when you see the person you like?

10.What do your parents think of you?
“Maternity Hell” (by Michael Giacchino from the LOST: Season 4 soundtrack)
My player is usually better about skipping around to all the albums than this, but LOL!
11.What will you dance to at your wedding?
“This Guy’s In Love With You” (recorded by Steve Tyrell)
What a great song—slow and romantic! I tingle just imagining new hubby crooning this in my ear throughout the first dance.
12. What will they play at your funeral?
“Let’s Misbehave” (recorded by Elvis Costello from the De-Lovely soundtrack)
ROTFLOL! Maybe I should be living it up a little more.
13. What is your hobby/interest?
“Hella Bar Talk” (by Michael Giacchino from the Star Trek soundtrack)
Hmmm . . . I don’t go to bars, but I do like to talk! (And I could comment on how much the opening few notes of this piece sound like it could have been from one of the LOST soundtracks, but I won’t.)
14. What is your biggest secret?
“Life Is a Song” (recorded by Tony Bennett)
Don’t know if that’s a secret or not, but I always have some kind of music running through my head.
15. What do you think of your friends?
“That’s How It Goes” (recorded by Michael Bublé)
Yep, that’s pretty much how I roll,
16. What’s the worst thing that could happen?
“Why Don’t You Believe Me?” (recorded by Dean Martin)
It’s never a good feeling when someone doesn’t believe (or believe in) you.
17.How will you die?
“When I Reach the Place I’m Going” (recorded by Wynonna Judd)
LOL—I guess when my job here is done, so will be my time here.
18. What makes you laugh?
“Memories of Home” (from the HBO miniseries The Pacific soundtrack)
Good times, good times.
19.What makes you cry?
“You’re Nobody ‘Til Somebody Loves You” (recorded by Dean Martin)
That would make me cry, if nobody loved me.
20. Will you ever get married?
“If You’ll Have Me” (from the Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day soundtrack)
Again, a repeated album, but still . . . couldn’t get a better answer than that!
21. What scares you the most?
“Finding Private Ryan” (by John Williams from the Saving Private Ryan soundtrack)
Maybe I’m afraid Private Ryan has it out for me!
22. Does anyone like you?
“There’s Yes! Yes! in Your Eyes” (recorded by Dean Martin)
Hmmm . . . does this mean I have an admirer???
23. If you could go back in time, what would you change?
“The Black Gate Opens” (by Howard Shore from The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King soundtrack)
I’d stop the Black Gate from opening!
24. What hurts right now?
“Locke’s Excellent Adventure” (by Michael Giacchino from the Lost: Season 5 soundtrack)
Yep, I’m still hurting over the way they chose to end the series.
25. What is the one thing you regret?
“When You Say Nothing at All” (recorded by Keith Whitley)
There are many times in my life when I could have/should have spoken up but didn’t.
26. What will you post this as?
“You Give Love a Bad Name” (recorded by Bon Jovi)
I hope not! After all, giving love a “good name” is what I’m building my career on!
Your turn!

It’s tempting to skip around to find answers that are more appropriate (or funny) than what comes up. Last time I did this, I used only my vocal-music playlist, but decided I’ve been listening to the instrumentals so much more than the vocals lately that it wouldn’t be “fair” to not include them (as if their feelings would be hurt?????). 😉

So I was supposed to get my daughter’s OLD iPod when she got her new, shiny one for Christmas. I had stuff picked out to load on it and everything. Of course her NEW one was stolen out of her purse, at school, in about March. Ergo, no iPod for Mom. 😦 And this sounds like so much FUN!

Don’t you have music on your computer? That’s where all of my music is kept (if I ever have to purchase a CD because something isn’t available for MP3 download, I immediately rip it to Windows Media Player . . . and then promptly lose the CD). And since I have it all on my laptop, I’m more likely than not to leave my MP3 player at home and use the laptop as a giant (and expensive) music player at night (since I have to have music when I’m sleeping to block out all of the unfamiliar noises that might otherwise keep me awake).

LOL!!!! Some of those were hysterical!!! However I’m so not a technowhiz that I don’t have an ipod!!!! Yes, I know you’re shocked. I love music but don’t think to listen to it a lot. I used to live on the ground floor of a highrise on a really, really busy road and the traffic noise was deafening. When I finally moved to a tiny bungalow on a quieter street I was so pleased with the peaceful nature sounds — birds chirruping,leaves rustling in the wind, crickets, chipmunks, squirrels…ah bliss! That became music to my noise-addled brain and I realize now that I rarely listen to music anymore.

I have a constant ringing/buzzing in my ears, so if I don’t have some kind of ambient noise, like music or the TV or the AC running, it will make me go psycho. I started needing music at night to sleep when I lived in a duplex (a small house divided into two one-bedroom apartments) and seven or eight (though it sounded like twenty or thirty) people lived in the other side—with wood floors and people stomping around, laughing, and talking at all hours of the night.
And if the birds around here would “sing” more than just the same three- or four-note pattern over and over and over and over and over and over and over . . . I’d probably enjoy the sounds of nature a lot more.

OK…I’m cranking up my netbook’s WinAmp…I have 3,101 songs on my hard drive so this should be interesting…
1. What is your motto?
M/A/R/R/S – Pump Up The Volume
Seems silly for people who meet me for the first time and I’m usually completely silent. Get around me when I’m cranked up for improv or speaking to a group & this pretty much fits.
2.What do your friends think of you?
This assumes I have friends. 🙂
Hillsong – King of Majesty
Well, that’s normal. Once people get to know me, they pretty much worship the ground I walk on. (That’s called sarcasm, people.)
3.What do you think about very often?
Don Henley – Not Enough Love In The World
Yeah, I can roll with this…most people talk a good game about loving other people but in reality will drive past the homeless guy on the corner begging for food so you can eat the two Quarter Pounders with Cheese in the passenger seat next to you.
4. What is 2+2?
The Waiting – The Air I Breathe
Um…I have no idea how this one would fit the question. 🙂
5.What do you think of your best friend?
Lincoln Brewster – You Are The One
Push aside the song’s about God, I pretty much feel that way about Amy.
6.What do you think of the person you like?
Jennifer Knapp – Undo Me
Well, I’m married, so I can’t really ask Anne Hathaway to do this… 😉
7. What is your life story?
R.E.M. – Man on the Moon
It’s a song about Andy Kaufman. Boy, can I relate to life being bizarre.
8.What do you want to be when you grow up?
Southern Pacific – Pink Cadillac
I wouldn’t mind being a popular as Springsteen (who, if you didn’t know, wrote this song…)
9.What do you think when you see the person you like?
Martika – Toy Soldiers
Well, I hope the people I like aren’t a bunch of raving drug addicts like in the song. Although most of them are addicted to caffeine…
10.What do your parents think of you?
Emmylou Harris – Two More Bottles of Wine
Yeah, I caused them headaches on that level.
11.What will you dance to at your wedding?
Aerosmith – Livin’ On The Edge
Well, we didn’t dance at our wedding but this song sure fit the days following the “I do”s!
12. What will they play at your funeral?
Presidents of the United States of America – Mixed Up S.O.B.
At this moment, that seems pretty fitting to me (if they switched the gender of the person in the song, that is…)
13. What is your hobby/interest?
Clint Black – Nobody’s Home
Honestly…most of the things I like do are usually alone for the most part: Walking & writing
14. What is your biggest secret?
John Michael Montgomery – The Little Girl
Most people have no idea when they meet Julie that she’s not my biological daughter. We don’t tell them either.
15. What do you think of your friends?
The Hooters – Time Stand Still
The rare times I have friends and hang out I would appreciate more time to enjoy. Life’s way too busy sometimes.
16. What’s the worst thing that could happen?
Johnny Cash – Don’t Take Your Guns To Town
Yeah, some body running around shooting people would be bad.
17.How will you die?
Lita Ford & Ozzy Osbourne – Close My Eyes Forever
Seriously…this is what came up. I hope my final exit isn’t suicide but during my teen years it almost became reality.
18. What makes you laugh?
Rush – War Paint
Another surprisingly fitting choice. As a writer (and former radio broadcaster) I like to people watch. I get both amused and saddened at teen girls who are over-made-up and under-clothed trying to create an illusion of maturity.
19.What makes you cry?
Dwight Yoakum – Little Ways
Well, I don’t cry often but Amy knows how to make it happen.
20. Will you ever get married?
Prince – I Would Die 4 U
Well, I felt that way about my wife before I married her.
21. What scares you the most?
Casting Crowns – Does Anybody Hear Her?
Yeah, I do fear being ignored by everyone. It happens a lot more than I care to admit. Usually with good reason.
22. Does anyone like you?
Rush – Ghost Rider
Hmm…does that mean there really are spirits following me around?
23. If you could go back in time, what would you change?
Def Leppard – Too Late For Love
Ironically, if I could go back in time, I would tell my past self to pay more attention to those I love because you can’t get that time back.
24. What hurts right now?
Clear – Clarity
LOL…considering I’ve been struggling wondering whether to keep going with writing or not since Blue Ridge that’s an ironic choice, Mr. WinAmp. 😉
25. What is the one thing you regret?
The Eagles – Life In The Fast Lane
Right now, I regret following my ego and going into radio. Sure, some good things came from it but I’m paying for it now with no upper level job skills and a lot of personal failures that came from that business. I won’t go any further but this song fits more than I care to admit…

Trans-Siberian Orchestra, Dreams of Candlelight
Hmm. I do daydream a lot, but…
4. What is 2+2?
The Streets, Heaven for the Weather
True, it is more than 4 degrees “on the Streets,” though I wouldn’t exactly call this heat “Heaven.”
5. What do you think of your best friend?
Pierce Pettis, Words Said in the Dark.

Through the Fire
My husband is my best friend. We’ve faced a lot of fires over the years, and I wouldn’t want anyone else walking through those fires with me.

Desiring God-Part 7 (I forgot I also have several audio books on my media player!)
I like God a lot. I want to desire Him more.
7. What is your life story?
Good King Wenceslas????? Sorry, this requires a do-over.
The Warrior is a Child
This is definitely my life story right now. We are on summer break from school, and the children are war with each other.
8.What do you want to be when you grow up?
Savior
I definitely don’t want to BE the Savior. I’m just glad I BELONG to the Savior.
9.What do you think when you see the person you like?
Radically Saved
So true. When I “see” Jesus in prayer or in the Word, I think about the radical action it took to save me. Can’t wait to see Him in person and thank Him face to face!
10.What do your parents think of you?
Breathe on Me
I hope they are praying that the Holy Spirit will continue to breathe on me!
11.What will you dance to at your wedding?

Absolutely.
20. Will you ever get married?
Peace in the Valley
“‘Til the Lord comes to call me away!”
21. What scares you the most?
Desiring God-Part 3
The part that scares me is the persecution that comes with desiring God. (II Timothy 3:12- Indeed, all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will be persecuted.)
22. Does anyone like you?
O Come all Ye Faithful
My church family tolerates me :0)
23. If you could go back in time, what would you change?
What If?
I think I’m begging the question here!

All the wasted time I’ve spent choosing to stay away from His great love by sinning / not being faithful to Him.

7. What is your life story?
Play with Fire, Rolling Stones
Again, this is the exact opposite of the truth. Thanks to my mom’s horrific nursing tales, I was never tempted to play with fire.
8. What do you want to be when you grow up?
Hand of Sorrow, Within Temptation
True. I wish to reach out and touch people. With sadness.
9. What do you think when you see the person you like?

I Fought the Law, The Clash
During my teenage years, I’m sure they fought the desire to break anti-homicide laws.
11. What will you dance to at your wedding?
Disco Ball Heart, Edie Carey
Man, I so so wanted the Rent soundtrack to come up, since that’s what was actually during the ceremony at my wedding. But still, refers to dancing and love.
12. What will they play at your funeral?

Whoa. This has the lyric “Please Remember Me.” Creeptastic.
13. What is your hobby/interest?
Someone New, Escobar and Heather Nova
That’s me. Flitting from man to man.
14. What is your biggest secret?
Chemistry, Semisonic
I never took Chemistry in high school, but maybe I’m secretly good at it. But most likely my secret is simply that I love this song.
15. What do you think of your friends?
Dante’s Prayer, Loreena McKennit
They do indeed need prayer. Getting to know me is like going through the Seven Circles.
16. What is the worst thing that could happen?
Scarborough Fair, Simon and Garfunkel
A Renaissance fair is the BEST thing that could happen!
17. How will you die?
Sympathy, Goo Goo Dolls
Wow, how sensitive of me. After touching people with my hand of sorrow, I’ll die out of sympathy for them.
18. What makes you laugh?
Squirrelaholic, The Knockdown
Wow. That WOULD make me laugh.
19. What makes you cry?
Forever Young, Ella
People with too much plastic surgery do make me cry.
20. Will you ever get married?
Brave New Worship, Kelanie Gloeckler
I’m already married, and picking up socks and doing laundry is a new, brave form of worshiping (well, serving) my husband. Also: I was careful to spell this artist’s name right so you could check her out RIGHT NOW. She’s amazing.
21. What scares you the most?
Lie to Me, Jonny Lang
It kind of scares me how angry I get about Christians who lie. I don’t judge gays or prostitutes, but I have very little grace for people who claim to follow Jesus and don’t tell the truth. Guess I need to work on that.
22. Does anyone like you?
Kiss Off, Violent Femmes
Well. Guess that answers that.
23. If you could go back in time, what would you change?
A Sorta Love Song, Marin Mazzie
This song has beautiful piano, and I think I would’ve asked for piano lessons as a kid.
24. What hurts right now?
I Saw it on Your Keyboard, Hellogoodbye
Yes. The lipstick I found on your keyboard that proves you’ve been untrue…how it hurts…
25. What is the one thing you regret?
Therapy, Raul Esparza, Amy Spanger (Tick Tick Boom Musical)
I do indeed regret all those years of therapy. Psychosis and lack of adjustment are so much more interesting.

I always, always think of her when I hear that song and regret that I didn’t see their family more often. Now, when I hear that song I think of “over the rainbow” as Heaven where she is now with her true Prince and her dreams that really did come true.
