Usual skipping policies apply, which is to say that I'll skip whatever I want, especially if it's foreign, an audiobook, has no words, or we've encountered that artist a few times already.
IF SOMEONE SAYS "ARE YOU OKAY?" YOU SAY
Turning - The Women of Paris, Original Les Mis Cast // "Where's the new world now the fighting's done?" I'm politically disillusioned? Either that or really depressed.
WHAT WOULD BEST DESCRIBE YOUR PERSONALITY?
Handel: Water Music Suite, Orpheus Chamber Orchestra // This one's chill and cheerful, so I'll take it even if it has no words. It would be good for doing stately dances to.
WHAT DO YOU LIKE IN A PARTNER?
mistrals gagnants by ?? // . . . um, it's in french, which I don't speak. Someone very expressive who I can't understand? Google suggests that it's about sitting and talking . . . and random stuff which makes no sense. Could be worse, I guess.
HOW DO YOU FEEL TODAY?
You Shall Go Out With Joy (Trees of the Field), Songs to Live by // I'll take that! Although the beginning of this recording starts out really slow and kind of depressing. Oh right, it gets better.
WHAT IS YOUR LIFE'S PURPOSE?
The Dangling Conversation, Simon and Garfunkel // . . . this is really a rather depressing song. "Yes we speak of things that matter, with words that must be said," is all I want to take out of it.
WHAT IS YOUR MOTTO?
Track 15, Wailing Banshees // I am a violin playing alone, and then the rest of the orchestra comes in and we up the tempo a bit. I'm more fun with friends around?
WHAT DO YOUR FRIENDS THINK OF YOU?
Samson, by Regina Spektor // . . .
WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT VERY OFTEN?
Sing, shepherds all, and in your roundelays, The King's Singers // I am a person with music in my soul, I guess.
WHAT DO YOU THINK OF YOUR BEST FRIEND?
Man Doesn't Know (Reprise), Damn Yankees // "A woman doesn't know what she has until she loses it." Given that both of my best friends are several hundred miles away and I miss them, this makes decent sense, I guess.
WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE PERSON YOU LIKE?
Echo, Sweet Honey in the Rock // "Nothing but an echo of the past." I'm just going to take this as a general indicator of nonexistance and skip the creepy civil rights stuff later in the song.
WHAT IS YOUR LIFE STORY?
Act 2 Finale, Spamalot // I do not think that my life story is about marrying all of the characters off. Or about a broadway show, for that manner. I'll just take, "Life is really up to you, you must choose what to pursue."
WHAT DO YOU WANT TO BE WHEN YOU GROW UP?
Master of the House, Les Mis Cast // I REALLY HOPE NOT!
WHAT DO YOU THINK WHEN YOU SEE THE PERSON YOU LIKE?
Witches Abroad, Track 27, Terry Pratchett // "Every established kitchen has one ancient knife and so inexplicably sharp that reaching in at night is like bobbing for apples in a piranha tank." ??
WHAT DO YOUR PARENTS THINK OF YOU?
Lady Madonna, The King's Singers // This makes even less sense than the instrumental ones I skipped to get to it.
WHAT WILL YOU DANCE TO AT YOUR WEDDING?
Corazón En Venta, Andrés Calamaro // No, I don't think so. The music is nice (and danceable), but it's the Spanish equivalent of those ABBA songs that seem cheerful enough until you actually pay attention to the words and realize that they're all about breaking up.
WHAT WILL THEY PLAY AT YOUR FUNERAL?
Useless Desires, Patty Griffin // I hope people like me better than that, but "Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye old friend/I can't make you stay" is a funereal sort of song.
WHAT IS YOUR HOBBY/INTEREST?
On the Trail from The Grand Canyon Suite // Okay, I like hiking.
WHAT IS YOUR BIGGEST SECRET?
I Am A Man Of Constant Sorrow, The Soggy Bottom Boys // Hardly.
WHAT DO YOU THINK OF YOUR FRIENDS?
King of Pride Rock/Circle of Life (Reprise) [Medley] // It's not a bad song, but I like my friends better than this song.
WHAT'S THE WORST THING THAT COULD HAPPEN?
Penny's Song, Dr. Horrible // I could be Penny. That would be pretty bad. Although this is one of the less obnoxious moments.
HOW WILL YOU DIE?
Jonny Jump Up / Morrison's Jig, Gaelic Storm // People feed me strong alcohol?
WHAT IS THE ONE THING YOU REGRET?
Rain Falls Hard, SJ Tucker // um, no comment
WHAT MAKES YOU LAUGH?
SSFFS - Sen Scavenger Hunt // Yes, yes it does.
WHAT MAKES YOU CRY?
Ce N'Est Rien, Les Mis // Okay, yeah, I do tear up a bit at Eponine's death. Even if it's in French.
WILL YOU EVER GET MARRIED?
The Ad-Dressing of Cats, Cats // "Cats are very much like you" I'll do whatever I jolly well please?
WHAT SCARES YOU THE MOST?
I Dreamt I Dwelt in Marble Halls, Anúna // This is not a scary song. At all.
DOES ANYONE LIKE YOU?
Within You Without You, The Beatles // Okay, this meme is getting increasingly cryptic.
IF YOU COULD GO BACK IN TIME, WHAT WOULD YOU CHANGE?
The House I Live In, Paul Robeson // "What is America to me?" Clearly this is a sign that my reacting character should try to change history.
WHAT HURTS RIGHT NOW?
I Can't Be Bothered Now, Crazy For You Cast // Yes, this meme is getting a bit long.
WHAT WILL YOU POST THIS AS?
Couldn't Hear Nobody Pray, Jonathan Sills // Okay . . .
