A lot of people are taking part in this meme, on Facebook and on their own blogs, to share with the world 30 songs that mean something personal to them. (Details of the Facebook meme are *HERE*)
I decided to give it a try here on my blog, partly because it gives me a chance to think about what songs affect me and also because it gives me an excuse to post to my blog every day for nearly a month without requiring much of the time and effort that posting usually requires.....
The rules are that you have to post a song on your blog, every day for thirty days, according to the guidelines below.
As each day passes, I'll post the next song in the list. You can go straight to any that have already been posted, by clicking on the highlighted links in the list below:
You'll see from the list, that not all of them are going to be songs you class as 'great songs' or even as 'good songs' so for anyone following this, prepare to take the rough with the smooth.
I hope some more of you will take part. If you do, be sure to post a comment here with a link to your blog, so I can pop over from time to time to check out your selections too.
I repeated the 30 day song challenge meme some months later on Google+ with some necessary changes and a handful of additions. You can see my G+ efforts HERE
I think you'll find that Google+ is a much more flexible medium for this kind of thing than any of the other social media sites. My posts for the 30 day song challenge meme there are all PUBLIC so you don't need to be in G+ to read them, but should you wish to sign up for Google+, you can do so HERE
