\"Day24\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Ugh, I\u2019ve been dreading this one.  I\u2019m really not a big music person\u2026 there are a lot of songs I can sing along with but ask me who sings them or what they are called? Forget it\u2026<\/p>\n

I\u2019m not going to do a playlist for just one person, because I\u2019ll never come up with the songs but I\u2019ll just give the ones that come to the top of my head at this moment and who they are for, what they make me think of and the times they take me back to in my mind.  Songs that will always be special to me for whatever reason.<\/p>\n

That will have to do.<\/p>\n

Whenever I hear the song The Best Day<\/a> by Taylor Swift I think of my mother because the feelings in the song are a lot of what I have always felt about her, and still do of course.<\/p>\n

I still sing along with The Joker<\/a> by Steve Miller and think about the amazing times I had with my friends in college.  Me and the girls sang this in the car many a night on the way out to the clubs.<\/p>\n

The Friends Theme<\/a> will always make me think of Tony D (middle) and the boys.  Friends was at it\u2019s most popular during my second year in college and one night at a party I shot this photo of a few of the boys imitating the \u2018Friends Walk\u2019.<\/p>\n

The Boxer<\/a> by Simon and Garfunkel will always make me laugh remembering the time myself and some friends hung out with a busker outside the library in Halifax.  We were all pretty drunk and I just remember standing on the little wall doing the big \u201cPSSSH\u201d when it came time for the cymbals bit.  I think we sang a lot of songs with him that evening, but that\u2019s the one that has stuck in my mind.  We didn\u2019t make a dime.<\/p>\n

For as long as I live, the song Snowbird<\/a>, and any other song by Anne Murray, will make me think of my grandmother.  I\u2019ll always love Anne Murray for that reason.<\/p>\n

Growing up with a musician there are a lot of songs that remind you of them but Splish Splash<\/a> by Bobby Darin and All I Have to Do is Dream<\/a> by the Everly Brothers are my \u2018Dad songs\u201d, the ones he used to sing to me most and that are always the first to my mind when I think of him.  I can still remember driving in downtown North Sydney while he sang \u201cThe Dream Song\u201d, as I called it as a child, and taught me the words.<\/p>\n

Any song by P!NK<\/a> will always have a connection for me to my friend Penny<\/a>, she loves her just as much as (maybe more than) I do, and we even went to see her in concert together.<\/p>\n

Please forgive me, the next song is Celine Dion.<\/p>\n
