tchaikovsky piano trio op.50 no.2

I came across this iPod MEME at Marc Geelhoed's Deceptively Simple. Given that I share my iTunes with my flatmate (and we don't always have the same taste in music) and that I have some absolute shockers stored in my files, this should be hilarious...

The rules:

1. Put your iTunes/ music player on Shuffle
2. For each question, press the next button to get your answer.
3. YOU MUST WRITE THAT SONG NAME DOWN NO MATTER WHAT


1. If someone says ‘Is this OK?’ you say?

[yep, it's OK for sure. Love is always bound to go wrong...]


2. What would best describe your personality?

[distinct, expressive, unusual, creative, sweet, fun, playful, goddess... :-)]


3. What do you like in a girl/boy?

Banging your heart against some mad buggers wall - Yup, It's true!]

Dan - c'mon we all know you are a closet Tchaikovsky lover!

ok, ok...all of those tracks are mine... as much as I don't necessarily want to admit to some of them...but I said that some of my stuff could be considered "shockers" not yours... oops, sorry! that probably wasn't very clear was it... but anyhow, do I sense some defensiveness there? hee hee...
