The Song/Music Tag

What was the last song you listened to?
"Danny Boy" by Celtic Thunder 

What is the longest a song has been stuck in your head?
Not sure.  That happens to me pretty often, and it's usually songs I can't stand. 

If you were an artist, what genre would you sing?
Celtic, pop, and/or soft rock.  Like Celtic Thunder.  ;)

What is your favorite piece of music you've performed in front of an audience?
I would say it was a Christmas medley that my community orchestra performed at a retirement home, not too long ago.  The audience sang along, and the last song was "Silent Night"...it was the most beautiful performance I've ever been a part of.  Just hearing people sing like that, and to think that that music brought everyone together for ten minutes, makes it my favourite.

What piece of music best describes you when you are happy?
Either the HMS Indefatigable theme song from the Hornblower TV series, or the Endless Ocean theme from Master and Commander.  :D 

What piece of music best describes you when you are angry?
Possibly the theme from Bach's Chaconne (for solo violin).

Name your two favorite songs from movies:
"Into the West" from Return of the King, and "All I Ask of You" from Phantom of the Opera (not sure if this counts, because I haven't seen the movie and I like the original cast recording better).  I also love "I've Got a Golden Ticket" from Willy Wonka.  ;)

Name your two favorite songs not from movies:
Well, two of my faves are "Take Me Home" and "Lauren and I" by Celtic Thunder. 

What song makes you want to dance?
Technically, it's not a song, but the Swan Lake waltz by Tchaikovsky!!  I think it's one of the best waltzes ever...

Who do you choose to do this tag?
Nina, Earwen, Maggie, Gwyn, Milli, and anyone else who wants to do it!
