I think it was All The Small Things, it was pretty big when I was in fifth
or sixth grade.
3. What’s your favorite lyric by 33? Steve Burns
-shit… I'm not going to lie, I don't really know any of the words to his songs. I listen to him enough for him to be my number33, but usually it's while I'm busy checking emails and I'm not paying attention to words. I like the song 'Mighty Little Man' though.
(Haha! I'm sure this doesn't count, but I've always beena big fan of the mail song of Blue's Clues :D)
4. What is your favorite album by 49? Meatloaf

-Well, I have his greatest hits, so I'm assuming that counts as one.

-Angel Dust (the only one I actually own)
9. What is your favorite song by 5? Mono Puff
-Extra Krispy, hands down :D

- Make It The Same:D Totally listening to this song right now… but I'm a little surprised to see that Mundanes are number 38, I thought they were higher.. hmm..
15. Is there a song by 19 that makes you happy? David Miller
-Heck, yes! I only have one song by Mr. Miller, and it's "Narrow Your Eyes" by TMBG. His cover is so much better than the original, it is number 2 one my playlist of "Song I Love" :D I haven't ben able to find anything else by him though, so I'm excited to get new Pixies tribute that he's going to Manta Ray on.
***I'm not going to lie, I've been tagging all of these things by hand, because something isn't working on Last FM, and I'm getting sick of it. There's only like, 2 people who are going to read this anyway, and I
