Day 12 - A song from one of your fav movies.

day 29 - song that's on your phone

I don't have any songs on my phone! (other than demos of my own stuff). This is the only song I have, because it's my ring tone.

day 25 - song from your first concert

In defense of my age, this was a "rock and roll revival" show, not during the time when this band were on the charts! They still rocked, though.

day 17 - road trip song

I taped this album (A Pagan Place) when it came out. Some friends and I were driving to a conference, in my friend's Chevelle, and we blasted this song while traveling through a canyon. It sounded fantastic.

day 7 - reminds you of high school

I chose this because 1) Led Zeppelin were musical gods at my HS, and 2) This is the kind of animation we did (by hand!) in our Media Arts classes.

Led Zeppelin/Viking Kittens - The Immigrant Song

m.youtube.com/watch?v=Apxn...
Viking Kittens
The Flash animation removed for legal reasons from rathergood.com because it had the Immigrant Song in it. OR SO THEY SAY! From recent intelligence, the real reason could be because Fark.com totally hosed the rathergood.com servers. That actually sounds more logical.
