Name a song that...

...that reminds you of an ex: This is Love Mary Chapin Carpenter For you [livejournal.com profile] toneyvr MCC never fails to inspire me, neither does [livejournal.com profile] toneyvr

...that reminds you of your childhood: Black Velvet Band (various). Marching in the St Patrick's Day parade
...that reminds you of high school: Ant Music Adam and the Ants or Our Lips Are Sealed The Gogos or Diamond Smile The Boomtown Rats
...that mirrors you too closely: I was gonna skip this, then I remembered: Fairytale of New York The Pogues
...that makes you laugh: The Hockey Song Stompin' Tom Connors Oh, the good ole hockey game is the best game you can name
...that will always get you up to dance: I Want You Back Jackson 5ive. Men who don't "get" the early J5 don't get 2nd dates...or Strangelove Depeche Mode

...that you love but wouldn't know of (or remember it in my case) if it weren't for a friend: Driving Everything But the Girl. Thanks Noel!

...that reminds you of something nasty: American Pie Don McLean. since 11-09-01.
...that reminds you of a break-up: Alone Again, Naturally Gilbert O'Sullivan
...that makes you think of your friends: Fare Thee Well Love The Rankin Family
...that is held between you and a friend: S.A.G.A.P.O some Greek Eurovision dork. Truly awful, but something Noel and Ed and I share
...that would be your choice for a national anthem: O Canada. Duh, it's already a great anthem.
...that changed your life in some pragmatic way: Le Monde est Stone Fabienne Thibeault It made we want to learn to *really* speak and understand French

This was waaaay fun

Now I'm paraphrasing...

'I kept 'em with me dear, I put them with my own,
Can't make it all alone, I built my dreams around you'

That song makes me emotional...
