Day 1: A song you like with a color in the title
The Birthday Massacre - Blue
Black tongues speak faster than the car can crash You supply the rumors and I'll provide the wrath Romance is breaking every heart in two Casting shadows in the pale shade of blue
[honorable mention: Eiffel 65 - Blue (Da Ba Dee)]
Day 2: A song you like with a number in the title
t.A.T.u. - Досчитай до 100
Сто бессоных ночей В лабиринтах любви. Сто случайных ключей, А в итоге нули. Сто друзей, сто врагов. Сто растаявших льдин. Забывай про него… 101, 101.
Day 3: A favorite song with a person’s name in the title
Геба - Юрочка
Юрочка, Юрочка, милый мой, играй! Не ругайтесь, мама-папа, любовь - это рай. Юрочка, Юрочка, милый мой, играй! Не ругайтесь, мама-папа, любовь - это рай.
Day 4:A song you know all the lyrics to
Eminem - Stan
Sometimes I even cut myself to see how much it bleeds It's like adrenaline, the pain is such a sudden rush for me See everything you say is real, and I respect you 'cause you tell it My girlfriend's jealous 'cause I talk about you 24/7 But she don't know you like I know you Slim, no one does She don't know what it was like for people like us growing up You gotta call me man, I'll be the biggest fan you'll ever lose Sincerely yours, Stan P.S. We should be together, too
[I've known this song by heart since I was 11, lmao.]
Day 5: A song that reminds you of a loved one
Tech N9ne - Caribou Lou
nah but this song reminds me of my friend Sergio, who comitted suicide in 2011, bc this was his fave song.
it's also one of my brother's fave songs too 🤣
Day 6:A song that reminds you of someone you would rather forget about
Sergey Lazarev - Just Because You Walk Away
my crazy abusive scientologist ex sent me this song a couple years ago, trying to win me back. it's a shame because i love this song, but yet when i hear it, all i think of is her.
Day 7: A song that needs to be played LOUD
Linkin Park - One Step Closer
because i only stan the REAL Linkin Park in this house.
this always brings back memories of when me and my friends caused a mosh pit to this and In the End at our Valentine's Day dance in 9th grade. Good times.
Day 8: A song that makes you want to dance
Ruslana - Wild Dances
i remember seeing this video back in like 2004 and i fell in love with Ruslana, lol. she's hot and this song is one of my faves of hers.
Day 9: A song that makes you happy
Rockapella - Falling Over You
i've loved Rockapella since i first heard them on Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego back in the early-90s. they're really cool guys IRL! very talented and good looking too :3 [mind you, this is the early-90s lineup, the members except for two have all changed; i prefer this lineup always!]
Day 10: A song that makes you sad
Linkin Park - One More Light
y'all should have seen this coming. this song always makes me cry. like rn i can't even listen to it bc i know i'll be bawling my eyes out.
Day 11: A song that you never get tired of
Rockapella - Fliptop Twister
i never tire of this song, at all. Sean Altman has a sexy voice, lol. i mean... he is sexy too so... *shrug*
Day 12: A song that you’ve listened to lots of time recently
Лена Катина - Из темноты
Lena Katina, the little redhead from t.A.T.u., is all grown up and has a solo career. This is my favorite of her solo songs.
Day 13: A song that is a cover by another artist
Rockapella - Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress
I like Rockapella's version better than the original, which was by The Hollies. :) This is also heard in the bonus game on Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego as the background music for that round.
Day 14:A song with an amazing or your favorite music video
Linkin Park - Shadow of the Day
i love this video because of shirtless Chester lmao i could keep rewatching it over and over and over...
Day 15: A song that hasn’t got a music video but you wish it had
t.A.T.u. - Sacrifice
this song would have a cool video, i bet.
Day 16: A song that moves you forward
СЛОТ - Мёртвые звёзды
i've talked about my love for Daria Stavrovich on here many times, and this song from her former band, SLOT, is my fave. Makes me feel like I could kick ass and take names. XD
Day 17: A song that you think everybody should listen to
СЛОТ - Круги на воде
Another SLOT song. The video is incredible, the song is incredible, and Daria is incredible as always. 😍 Definitely a must listen.
Day 18: A song by a band you wish were still together
SMASH!! - Freeway
SMASH!! were created as a guy version of t.A.T.u., pretty much, and slightly based on WHAM!. I still don't know why they split up. A fun fact: Vlad Topalov (on the left in the thumbnail) and Sergey Lazarev (on the right in the thumbnail) were both in a children's musical group with t.A.T.u.'s Julia Volkova and Lena Katina as as kids.
Freeway is one of my fave SMASH!! songs. It's just... fun.
Day 19: A song by an artist no longer living
Юра Шатунов - Летные ночи
I've been obsessed with Yura Shatunov since 2008. He got his start at age 14 as one of the lead vocalists of the late-80s/early-90s Russian pop group, Laskovy May. He was a cutie. He passed away in 2022 from a heart attack at age 49. His death is rather controversial. He had been hanging out with his former bandmate, Andrey Razin, whom he had been in a legal dispute with. Sources say Andrey poisoned Yura, which I believe. Andrey is shady.
But anyway, this is one of my fave songs of Yura's solo career.
Day 20: A song by an artist with a voice that you love
Linkin Park - Halfway Right
I love Chester's voice. Always. 💖 also this song is a jam.
