Mary at Waibel’s World made this super fun post today: Soundtrack of My Life. I was planning on posting a progress update today, but I am so much in the midst of working on my wip and making revisions to another ms that I’m simply not ready for an update yet. Besides, this seemed like so much more fun!
The low down: Put your MP3 player or iPod on Shuffle. As the selections play, write in the song and artist that correspond with the following list. Finally, post it in the comments for all of us to see. Or not. I had fun with it. But then I have iTunes on shuffle as I’m writing anyway. Thanks, Mary!

Fun! I am stuck in the past with my records/CDs, otherwise I would try it out, too :)
ReplyDeleteI did a life soundtrack last year except I picked my own songs. It was fun. I don't have an ipod anyway so I couldn't do it like that. I enjoyed picking out songs that had special meaning at certain times of my life.

Isn't it freaky how accurate some of these are? I love these meme!
ReplyDeleteGlad you had so much fun with it, Susan. For those of you who think you can't play along 'cause you don't have an mp3 player, you can use media player or Google music-- just be sure you have random on.

@Arlee: I like your idea of hand-picking the selections.
ReplyDelete@Misha: Great song selections! I laughed about "When I Kissed the Teacher" b/c it came so close to being the first-day-of-school song. I love Florence and the Machine!
