This'll be interesting. So here I go with the first challenge. My favorite song is actually pretty hard. I dunno what my favorite song is. I have songs that I love dearly, but they are too many to count. Also I kinda feel like I'm betraying Nirvana (aka my favorite band ever) by not having them as my favorite song. But Pennyroyal Tea is one of the best songs ever. As is Lithium. As is Opinion and In Bloom. Also Come As You Are. But there are songs that I listen to more than that. I mean...songs like One Too Many Mornings by The Chemical Brothers, the City on the Edge of Forever by A Skylit Drive, Raise Your Weapon by Deadmau5, Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites by Srillex, Entombed We Collide and Forever and a Day by Death by Stereo, Counting Back to One by Beautiful Small Machines, Crack Pipes and Makeshift Patriot by Sage Fracis, Thrash Unreal and You Must Be Willing by Against Me!, The Last to Say by Atmosphere, Thou Shalt Always Kill and The Magician's Assistant by Dan Le Sac VS Scroobius Pip, Lake Michigan and Fantasies by Rouge Wave, too many songs by Bad Religion, pretty much all of the discography of Rise Against, Wall of Water by Mayhem, My Prayer Beyond Ginnungagap by Blut Aus Nord, Norden on Fire, Withstand the Fall of Time (which was the song that made black metal click with me and started this wonderfully dark and bleak romance) and Years of Silent Sorrow by Immortal, SAOT and I Saw Empires Falling by Eraplee Noisewall Orchestra, Melting Nails by Igorrr, When All is Said and Done by Napalm Death, I've Got a Straight Edge by Minor Threat, too many songs by the Beatles, Zetsubou Billy, Shimi and Akagi by Maximum the Hormone, Courtship Dating by Crystal Castles, Keep Hope Alive by the Crystal Method, Dogma by KMFDM, 1 Trillion Dollars, Police State in the USA, and the Consumer's Song by Anti-Flag, Last Train Home by Lostprophets, all of Float by Aesop Rock, Cherry by Ratatat, Vermilion and See In You by The Album Leaf, and waaaaay too many more to count. I mean, I guess I am just a huge music junkie. Oh and I haven't even gone into all the great pieces of classical music out there. Or the classics, like Led, The Dead Kennedys, ELP(Emmerson, Lake and Palmer), Simon and Garfunkle, Lou Reed, The Ramones, Rakim, Public Enemy Number One, Bad Brains, GBH, Pink Floyd, The Grateful Dead, Johnny Cash (aka one of the greatest songwriters of all time), Bob Dylan, Bob Marley, Neutral Milk Hotel, Lenard Cohen, Hank Williams, MDC, Patsy Cline, Bikini Kill, The Gits, Susan Vega, Kate Bush, Hybrid, The Winstons, and all those countless progenitors who have given us all fantastic music. So yeah, I have too many songs to choose just one. Also I think I should do a music thing for day 10 instead. So yeah, here we go!
