A great band

The Offspring is an underestimated rock band in my opinion. One tends to forget bands after a while, but I can never forget the Offspring. Sure sometimes I look at the displayed song name in my mp3-player and start wondering what song that is again? However it only takes two seconds of the intro to remind me and from there I know all the lyrics even. That must be one of the things distinguishing a great band.
Here we go today: a little Offspring treat!

My life according to Dean Martin

I found this intriguing mind game the other day where you're supposed to tell the story of your life using only song names from ONE BAND or ARTIST. I just had to take a stab at it and made my life according to Dean Martin. If it sounds as fun to you as it did to me, just copy the questions and delete my answers and choose your own artist or band.
It's a lot harder than you'd think!

My life according to Dean Martin:

Are you a female: I can't help it
Describe yourself: Cuddle up a little closer
How do you feel: I've got my love to keep me warm
Describe where you currently live: Marshmallow world
If you could go anywhere, where would you go: Under the bridges of Paris
Your favorite form of transportation: Volare
Your best friend is: Angel baby
You and your best friend are: Two sleepy people
What's the weather like: Baby, it's cold outside
Favorite time of day: Bonne nuit
If your life was a TV show, what would it be called: Ain't that a kick in the head
What is life to you: Memories are made of this
Your relationship: That's amore
Your fear: You've got me crying again
What is the best advice you have to give: Please don't talk about me when I'm gone
My soul's present condition: Hey brother, pour the wine
My Motto: Everybody loves somebody sometime

Locomondo

I just had to start with a post containing something silly and cheerful! - Locomondo, "Liubi liubi, I love you"

As I'm a bit of a language nerd I just have to love this song Romania entered the Eurovision song contest with 2007. It's a cute song about how love is the same all over the world, so basically they sing the same thing in English, Italian, Spanish, Russian, French and Romanian. It triggers my language nerve (if there is such a thing) and I do my utmost to sing along to all the languages. I suppose the reason to why I like this song so much is because it always makes me smile and I think that is important when it comes to music. You want to feel something, anyway, and this song surely does!
