1. How did you get into 31?
The Pigeon Detectives - Like almost all the artists in my most-played list, last.fm introduced me to them. I was probably musically retarded before joining this thing.
2. What was the first song you ever heard by 22?
Jimmy Eat World - Pain. My friend had to learn it for band practice and she didn't own it, so I downloaded it for her. *shame*
3. What's your favourite lyric by 29?
Franz Ferdinand - That's a hard one, let me think. Probably "Come find me in the matinee, the dark of the matinee." This may seem fairly superficial, and I suppose it is, but let me explain. 1. Yes, it just sounds good. The phrase rolls off your tongue, the mark of a good lyric. 2. Come on. We've all been there, hiding in the dark of the "matinee" doing things we maybe shouldn't be… ;)
4. What is your favourite album by 49?
The White Stripes - I suppose, obviously enough, it'll have to be elephant. The White Stripes are my number 49 for a reason, if I liked them a lot, they'd probably be higher up!
5. How many albums by 13 do you own?
The Hoosiers - Just the one, I'm afraid, The Trick to Life. Good album, though.
6. What is your favourite song by 50?
The Wombats - Obviously enough, Let's Dance to Joy Division. Like I said, if they were at the forefront of my music taste, they'd probably be higher up.
7. Is there a song by 4 that makes you sad?
Evanescence - Missing. For some obvious reasons, and some not so obvious.
8. What is your favourite song by 15?
Will Young(yes really) - It's a toss up between Leave Right Now and Who am I?.
9. What is your favourite song by 5?
The Dresden Dolls - Girl Anachronism. Fun to sing, and it resonates with me. Love it.
10. Is there a song by 6 that makes you happy?
Ben Folds Five - Song for the Dumped in one way, and Brick in another, very different way.
11. What is your favourite album by 40?
CAKE - Comfort Eagle. I love this band to death. The only reason they're so low down this week is because of the inordinate amount of Paramore I've been listening to…
12. What is your favourite song by 10?
The Killers - Andy, You're a Star. I'm not sure why, but when I bought Hot Fuss, I immediately latched onto this song…
13. What is a good memory you have involving 33?
Placebo - *ahem* *cough* No.
14. What is your favourite song by 37?
OK Go - Here it Goes Again. It makes me happy!
15. Is there a song by 19 that makes you happy?
Avril Lavigne - Complicated. Reminds me of first year… How did Avril get so high up my list? Must have been listening more than I thought…
16. How many times have you seen 21 live?
Dirty Pretty Things - None. At all.
17. What is the first song you ever heard by 23?
Fionn Regan - Let me see, it'd probably be…Be Good or be Gone or Bunker or Basement. Can't be sure.
18. What is your favourite album by 11?
The Zutons - Who Killed the Zutons?
19. Who is a favourite member of 1?
Paramore - I have to say Hayley Williams, simply because we're both small, we're both singers, and we've both been in bands consisting totally of guys and us. There's also the talent issue, but I believe I dealt with that already…
20. Have you ever seen 14 live?
Good Charlotte - HAHAHA NO!
21. What is a good memory involving 45?
Five for Fighting - I honestly don't have one. At all.
22. What is your favourite song by 16?
H.I.M. - I don't have one. I don't like them at all, and am at a total loss as to how they got so high up in my charts…
23. What is the first song you ever heard by 47?
The Format - Oceans (Live). Good track.
24. What is your favourite album by 26?
Panic! at the Disco - A Fever You Can't Sweat Out. Infinitely better, I think, than the new one…
25. What is your favourite song by 18?
The Kaiser Chiefs - I'm caught here between The Angry Mob and Ruby. The Angry Mob because it reminds me of Cabbage, and Ruby because you can substitute my name for the lyrics. :P
26. What is the first song you ever heard by 38?
Coldplay - LORD only knows. Probably Yellow, but I cannot be sure.
27. What is your favourite lyric by 3?
Ben Folds - Wow, that's a hard one!! Probably this one, from Learn to Live With What You Are;
"And I'm not saying that the effort was a waste of time, but I just love you for the things you couldn't change, though you've tried.
These hours of confusion they will soon expire like everything does."
28. What is you favourite song by 2?
Green Day - F.O.D. for fairly obvious reasons!
29. What was the first song you ever heard by 32?
The All-American Rejects - Dirty Little Secret, much like most people.
30. What is you favourite song by 8?
Jack Off Jill - Fear of Dying.
31. How many times have you seen 17 live?
The View - None. I don't get out much. :P
32. Is there a song by 44 that makes you happy?
The Presidents of the United States of America - Peaches! Apart from the fact that it's a fun song, it reminds me of…simpler times.
33. What is your favourite album by 12?
Queens of the Stone Age - Songs for the Deaf. Absolutely genius album. Love it.
34. What is the worst song by 34?
Razorlight - Well, I don't know about most of their songs, but In the Morning just gets on my nerves. Don't ask me why, I have no idea. It just does.
35. What was the first song you ever heard by 46?
The Arctic Monkeys - When the Sun Goes Down. I used to be able to drum that quite well. Don't know about anymore….
36. What is your favourite album by 42?
Radiohead - O.K. Computer. Just because. Do I need to explain my choice of Radiohead?
37. How many times have you seen 39 live?
Alice in Chains - Hah, I wish! Never…
38. What is your favourite album by 36?
Ben Kweller - On My Way, because it's the only one I know…
39. What was the first song you ever heard by 28?
Dido - Thank You. Heard part of it in that Eminem song, Stan, then my brother bought the vinyl of it… God, those were strange days…
40. What is you favourite album by 7?
Fall Out Boy - From Under the Cork Tree. Obvious reasons. Mostly, Infinity on High is crap and I don't really know Take This to Your Grave very well…
I hope you enjoyed this utter waste of time! It took me nearly an hour to write, but there you go. Have fun.
As usual, go n-eirigh an t-ádh libh!
–Shoebe.
