Tori_Z, Lady Styx, Celtic Spirit, WendyBurd1 and some others have done this, and I think Punkn was thinking about doing it - so I thought I'd give it a try.
My life, according to...
The rules to this game are:
1) Answer the questions as well as you can, but using only song names from one artist.
2) Try not to repeat a song title
3) Pick your own artist, leave mine alone (to quote someone).
4) Tag a bunch of friends. Tag, you're it.
I confess a couple things.
One, I like what is now considered "Oldies". Who'd of thunk it?
Two, I have a fondest for One Hit Wonders such as Laura Branigan with "Gloria" and Charlie Dore and her "Pilot Of The Airwaves". So selecting a group with more than one (well known) song was a little hard for me.
I ruled out John Denver, Air Supply, Emily Lou Harris, Dan Fogelburg, John Mellencamp (what happened to the Cougar?), Rod Stewart and the Rolling Stones because some young friends probably have never heard of them. :)
I also had to rule out my revised versions of songs, like Oak Ridge Boys singing "Elmira". Sigh, you folks do not know how much you lucked out on that.
Anyway, My Life According to Fleetwood Mac:

12. What is life to you? -- Monday Morning / Never Forget / Over My Head
13. Your relationships: -- [I'm just] Secondhand News

I know that you have the need
You know that I'll wait, as long as it takes
So go and do what you want
You'll never make me
You'll never make me
You'll never make me cry
I may not mean everything
But I'm happy to have your love
So don't worry baby, I'll be alright
And I'll never make you
I'll never make you
I'll never make you cry.

Really nice photos. Love the fountain, too.
Nice answers on the questionnaire. I don't know much about Fleetwood Mac. I guess there were only a few songs by them that I really knew. I have lots in my files, tho. I was thinking about this questionnaire yesterday...wondering if I should try my hand at it and what band I would choose. I love so many.
I need to get to work so best get going. Have a good day today. *hugs*
I don't really listen to Fleetwood Mac...now fleet foxes, yes! But what a great idea. Your life in song, and how crazy is it that they are a millions of songs to choose from. All of course relating to your life.
Hey, that house in the very first picture is beautiful.
this is a cute meme!! I enjoyed a lot of the bands/groups you were thinking of using too, gosh are we that old??? (don't answer)
I'll have to think about perhaps maybe doing this down the line
liked the water lillies!
enjoy the day
betty
Love the pictures, they are very serene.
Good job on the meme. :)
This is super neat. I am not sure how good I would be at this meme because I hardly know the name of the songs I listen to, let alone trying to stick to one singer/band.
I love water lilies. Nice photos!
so far i like your version of this meme than the others i have seen...but then i love fleewood mac...the pictures are lovely...
ps...package coming your way..should be there by monday..
Oh, I love this taggidy tag! I will do it too. Now I need to come up with some really GREAT artist that will make it fun. Hmm....Oh, and by the way, IG...the Oakridge Boys song was ELVIRA...with a V. And don't you knock that great hit. LOL (okay, I might be showing my age as well.)
Ah, I see you got the lily shots today, very pretty! The song tag must have been hard to do! Thanks for all the nice comments you left for me today :-)
Wow! I was reading the questions and the answers and I decided this would be really hard to do with one artist!
Kudos :)
I forgot all about this one. I am totally doing it tomorrow. I LOVE your answers and those pictures!
Go your own wayyy
Go your own wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
Man I'll have that song stuck in my head the rest of the day!
Great answers - absolutely gorgeous photos! You're right, I was planning on doing this and then forgot (me forget something? no way....). Anyway, you'll see it on my site real soon thank you very much!
Great answers and pretty pictures! Like I wrote on Tooj's responses, this looks really hard especially if you go on and pick someone with 5 lame songs to their name.
I like your hands.
Your life according to Fleetwood Mac....pretty good answers.
It makes me want to read the others. I can think of a lot of songs to those questions but using on artist or group is a bit of a challenge.
I love your pictures, they are great.
Thanks for the link to Geronimo. I can spend hours reading about our country's history. Love it.
Oldies rock. I prefer them to the music of today to be honest. I feel I can actually hear the lyrics.
Interesting answers.
Hey. Great answers!
Wow! That is a hard game! But I liked your answers--even if I don't know all the songs. Love the lilies!! What a beautiful pond. Interesting to see them asleep and then awake--cool! :)
I've never been a big FM fan, and to this day I can't listen to Don't Stop (Thinkin' About Tomorrow), but you picked out some great answers to the questions.
Love the picture at the end of the water lily flowers!
