Sometimes you can tell a lot about a person by the kind of music the person listens to and the selections that are made. I'm here to offer you 10 songs I listened to today as part of a special meme.

After I list my songs, I'm going to tag someone. The person tagged is supposed to repost my 10 songs before listing his or her own songs. Then he or she is to tag only one other person who does the same thing, but includes both sets of 10 songs before posting his or her own. When the list reaches 90 songs, the final "taggee" is supposed to tag me, the originator, and I fill in the final 10 for a total of 100. This creates a circular chain. Anyone within the chain can create a new chain at any time before this chain is complete.

I believe this will help me learn about some people I see a lot, as well as some people I probably know nothing about. Here's my 10:

  1. Phil Collins - Sussudio
  2. Patrick Swayze - She's Like The Wind
  3. Steely Dan - Hey Nineteen
  4. Christopher Cross - Ride Like The Wind
  5. Olivia Newton-John and ELO - Magic
  6. Frankie Valli - Swearin' To God
  7. All 4 One - I Swear
  8. Boyz II Men - End Of The Road
  9. Electric Light Orchestra - I'm Alive
  10. Spandau Ballet - True

I listened to many more, but I picked just 10 to make it a nice small, rounded number. After much deliberation, I've decided to tag Chris at Thermal because he's a good sport. There's no time limit and you don't have to participate if you don't want to.

What 10 songs did you listen to today?

(Update: You can split the chain off into different directions as long as there's clear instructions to return to the beginning of the split.)

(Update 2007-07-31: I won't be doing memes anymore. After participating in a few, and seeing this one die at the halfway point, I don't think it's worth the effort.)
