What was the first song you ever heard by #6?
Cheeseburger in Paradise when I was a kid. I had no clue who Jimmy Buffett was until I went to college and heard Margaritaville in a bar.
What is your favorite album of 2?
Come On, Come On. It has a classic rock sound.
What is your favorite lyric that 5 has sung?
So I have proved, some things can't be moved. And here I wait. But my faith is weak, and the water is creeping up to my chin.And I'm waiting for the tide to turn. Waiting for the tide to take me....away.
Waiting for the Tide by Melanie Doane
How many times have you seen 4 live?
Sadly, only once.
What is your favourite song by 7?
It's a tie between What Would You Say? and Grace is Gone.
What is a good memory you have involving the music of 10?
Their live shows are awesome. Part concert, part comedy! When I saw them in December 2006, they sang God Rest Ye Merry Gentleman. When it came to Sarah McLachlan's part, they announced "And now...Sarah McLachlan!" followed by "I wish!"
Is there a song of 3 that makes you sad?
Not really. They are not known for sad lyrics. But if I had to choose, I would say Behind Blue Eyes.
What is your favorite lyric that 2 has sung?
Strong Enough pretty much describes me. It totally explains my moody behavior. Especially the lyric
When I've shown you that I just don't care. When I'm throwing punches in the air. When I'm broken down and I cannot stand. Will you be man enough to be my man?
How did you get into 3?
They are Husband's favorite band. When we started dating in 1987, he introduced me to them. I have been a fan ever since.
What was the first song you heard by 1?
Possession. I became an instant fan.
What is your favorite song by 4?
One. I think it's the best song they have ever done.
How many times have you seen 9 live?
Twice. Awesome shows! The last show we saw was during the Rising tour. One of Husband's friends got the actual set let written in Springsteen's handwriting. We have a photocopy of it.
What is a good memory you have involving 2?
I saw Sheryl Crow last summer with John Mayer. Awesome show it was also an anniversary present from Husband.
Is there a song of 8 that makes you sad?
I'm Gone from These Four Walls.
What is your favorite album of 5?
Adam's Rib. It's an awesome disc.
What is your favorite lyric that 3 has sung?
That's hard, because Pete Townsend is one of the greatest songwriters. And the Who's songs are very conceptual. But one of my faves is from Baba O'Riley
Out here in the fields, I fight for my meals. I get my back into my living. I don't need to fight, To prove I'm right. I don't need to be forgiven.
Another fave is from Another Tricky Day:
(Just gotta get used to it) We all get it in the end. (Just gotta get used to it) We go down and we come up again. (Just gotta get used to it) You irritate me my friend. (This is no social crisis)This is you having fun. (No crisis) Getting burned by the sun. (This is true) This is no social crisis, just another tricky day for you.
What is your favorite song of 1?
It's a tie between Possession and Adia.
What is your favorite song of 10?
Jane. I also love Pinch Me.
How many times have you seen 8 live?
Once. Just her and her guitar at a small club. Awesome.
What is your favorite album of 1?
Fumbling Towards Ecstasy. It is one of those albums that you can play from start to finish without skipping a track.
What is a great memory you have considering 9?
It's not my memory, but Husband was at the concert in 1983 when Springsteen mentioned that President Regan had mentioned him in a speech. Springsteen's response was "I guess he never heard the Nebraska album!"
What was the first song you heard by 8?
Sunny Came Home.
What is your favorite cover by 2?
Sweet Child of Mine. Some versions of the Globe Session have it. She also does a great version of Led Zeppelin's Rock and Roll in her live shows.
