Meme: Songs that remind me of people

[chanaleh]

Dredging up (from memory) an old meme that invisible__girl and some others did some time ago:

For each of ten people on your friends list, list a song that reminds you of that person every time you hear it.

Having so many mitgspers on my list (with whom I strongly associate the songs I've heard them sing onstage) is probably cheating, so let's try to do this without resorting to G&S:

mrmorse: Dozens, but let's go with ELP, "From The Beginning".
ablock: Supertramp, "Bloody Well Right"
jessruth: Hundreds, probably! but I'll pick Sheryl Crow, "Keep On Growing" (from the soundtrack to Boys on the Side)
struct: Crowded House, "Don't Dream It's Over"
cos: Enya, "Orinoco Flow"
greenlily: Great Big Sea, "Old Brown's Daughter"
alaria_lyon: "I Know Things Now", Into the Woods
bethr: Dido, "White Flag"
tigerbright: Echo's Children, "Web of Love"
folzgold: The Ramones, "Rock & Roll High School"

And now, I am outta here.

I get nothing? Well you do have many many friends. Sigh.

Awww...

That's so sweet! Thanks for including me on your list.

(Actually "White Flag" reminds me of you too.)

You're so sweet to remember that. Hope it wasn't horrible :-)

On a similar note, I wish I knew someone who played piano and lived conveniently to me so that I could sing more. I hate paying voice teachers, but I seriously need an accompaniest with an opinion :-)

Man, now I'm gonna have to dig up my "Boys on the Side" CD (purchased within hours of our going to see the movie, if I recall correctly), just so I can know which song this is. =)

*grin* You and ladymondegreen absolutely rocked for being willing to learn that song the day before ailsaek's wedding, for the processional.

Enya was obvious

You certainly got cos right on target.
She's still his favorite performer, isn't she?

Oh wow, yeah... that song reminds me of you often. Though I haven't heard it in a while.

Re: Enya was obvious

I don't think she was ever my favorite, though I did listen to her very often when I had a tape of her among the first 10 or 15 or so tapes I made myself.
It's actually probably been more than a year since the last time I actually put on an Enya CD, though I do own a few and I like them a lot.
