Okay, so the fabulous Ms. Lauren Myracle tagged me for this meme. Here’s how it works:

My Life in Itunes

RULES:

1. Put your iTunes, Windows Media Player, etc. on shuffle.

2. For each question, press the next button to get your answer.

3. YOU MUST WRITE THAT SONG NAME DOWN NO MATTER HOW SILLY IT SOUNDS.

4. Tag 15 friends

5. Everyone tagged has to do the same thing. (Except only if you want to, adds I.)

6. Have Fun!

 

So I did it and…oh my. That’s all I can say. Oh. My.
