30 Day Music Challenge


poppy

Recommended Posts

I don't know if anyone wants to do this, but since there's lots of challenges going on, we can't leave music out. This one was on Facebook and Weave and I had a lot of fun doing it.

It's probably best done all in one go rather than daily.

 

 

Day 1 - A song that you test new speakers/headphones with.

Day 2 - A song that you've heard live.

Day 3 - A song from the year you were born.

Day 4 - A song from last year.

Day 5 - A song from the first album you bought.

Day 6 - A song from the last album you bought.

Day 7 - A song that you own but wish you didn't.

Day 8 - A song that you don't own but wish you did.

Day 9 - A song that no-one else you know likes.

Day 10 - A song that you listen to when you're getting ready to go out.

Day 11 - A song you often like to put on the jukebox.

Day 12 - A song that you air guitar/drum to.
