Friday Five

I never know where people get these little Friday Five surveys from. I just steal them from others, such as fooltoworry.

1. If you could pick your own theme song, what would it be? It changes all the time. Right now it’s a song called “Big Weekend” by Tom Petty. There’s a line in there that says, “You can look back babe, but it’s best not to stare,” and I like that.

If you don’t already have “Highway Companion,” the CD that song is from, I highly recommend it.

2. Now be honest...if others had to pick a song that described you, what would they choose? That’s a tough one, because I don’t know what songs other people know.

3. What song would be/was the first dance at your wedding? That’s still being settled. I’d like “Crawling Back to You” by Tom Petty but Mike insists that it’s a breakup song. And, listening to the lyrics I suppose it is. But it has a flute! And the line, “It was me and my sidekick/He was drunk and I was sick.” How can you not love that?

4. What song gets stuck in your head most often? It varies a lot. The last song to really get horribly stuck in my head was “Gasolina” by Daddy Yankee.

5. What song would you want played at your funeral? “Na na na na…na na na na…hey, hey, hey…gooooodbyyye!” No, just kidding. If I was going to have a sportsy song I’d have “Rock & Roll Part II” by Gary Glitter. I actually really like this church hymn called “Seek Ye First.” At my church we only ever sing the first two verses over and over, and I think it’s just beautiful.
