Day 27: A Song You Wish You Could Play
And here’s something that’s a little more unrealistic…
Day 26: A Song you Can Play on an Instrument
A Cant play any instruments, but this is the first song I want to learn. If I didnt already pick Seven Swans, that would be it
Day 25: A Song that Makes you Laugh
Before there was Rebecca Black, there was Bangs
[Flash 9 is required to listen to audio.]
Sufjan Stevens
—Seven Swans
Day 24: A Song You Want to Play at Your Funeral
A Day thats not a Youtube clip? And what more, its from one of my favorite concerts ever, the Sufjan at the Chicago Theater. Opening with this song was so fucking fantastic, especially the new louder version of it. The visuals Suf had going with it were also equally spectacular.
And Because I don’t know if the Audio post will reveal the title of the song…

Day 23: A Song I want Played At My Wedding
Nuff Said. I want this to be the first song I dance to. Amazing song, from a incredibly underrated show.
Day 22: A Song You Listen to While Sad
Every time I listen to this song, I get chills. Technically its two songs, but this was the only video of it on Youtube and it also gets both parts of the song in one video. Ignore the sub par quality of the video. Its not even that this song is depressing, but its just pure relaxing bliss, and also one of the only songs, as well as many other on this album, that remind me of winter.
James Blake. You Are Fucking Brilliant and I look forward to seeing you this summer in Union Park.
Day 21: A Song You Listen to When Happy
I don’t think there is a single song, or even artist that reminds me more of summer. Neon Indian’s electro psychedelicness is the perfect accompaniment for any relaxing summer afternoon or evening. Tough choice between this and Deadbeat Summer but I believe if any song represents, what was the best summer of my life, it is this.
Looking forward to another Terminally Chill summer
Day 20: A Song You Listen to When Angry
I dont know if anyone else experiences this, but I don’t really listen to a particular song, or even a particular artist or genre when I am angry. I guess people would expect either something angry or really up beat to help release the anger or something calming to chill you out.
I guess my choice is somewhat similar, Odd Future is so verbally assaulting that it is relieving during times of stress.
Day 19: A Song From Your Favorite Album
Its a big toss up between Pinkerton, Sound of Silver and Come on! Feel the Illinoise, but I think Pinkerton wins since I have liked it since, well, as long as I can remember. That being said, it puzzles and depresses me to no end that Weezer can’t make music as good as they did over ten years ago.
