It's a meme - songs with a letter.

[reynardo]

Having put my comment in in loganberrybunny's journal, I now need to name 10 songs beginning with a B:

1) Backstabber (Dresden Dolls)

2) Bohemian Rhapsody (Queen)

3) BWV 775 — Invention No. 4 in D minor (Bach, played by Carl Palmer)

4) Being for the Benefit of Mr Kite (The Beatles)

5) Be Prepared (Tom Lehrer)

6) Blue Monday (New Order)

7) Because The Night (The Patti Smith Group)

8) Bus Stop (The Hollies)

9) Ballad of Bilbo Baggins (Leonard Nimoy)

10) Bungle in the Jungle (Jethro Tull)

They aren't in any particular order (and yes, I cheated with number 3). B is surprisingly common on my list of great songs, so a few others had to be eased out.

Now - if you'd like, comment and I shall grant thee a letter (and I promise not to give Q, X or Z)

I'll bite :D Although I may have difficulty admitting some of what's on my playlist...

Considering number 9 on my list, fear not.

Madam, I grant thee an H.

[lokicarbis.livejournal.com]

Letter me up!

[reynardo.livejournal.com]

Prithee, Sirrah! I grant thee a T!

[lokicarbis.livejournal.com]

Sirrah?

[reynardo.livejournal.com]

Oops. That's what I get for picking up phraes from dubious novels with partially-clad heroines swooning in the arms of muscular men in loose shirts...

Well, if it makes you feel any better, you're in good company - Neil Gaiman made the same mistake one time in Sandman.

Zut! :P

[reynardo.livejournal.com]

You asked - you get a P!

[mr-figgy.livejournal.com]

Perfect. :)

[lirion.livejournal.com]

Sure, I'll play. No promises as to when I get the list posted though :)

[reynardo.livejournal.com]

Very well, M'lady. Thou shalt have M

[scascot.livejournal.com]

Me, me.

[reynardo.livejournal.com]

Consider thyself R!

[scascot.livejournal.com]

Done, and done!

[caimekazie.livejournal.com]

Might I have a letter? =D

[reynardo.livejournal.com]

Yes! You may have C.

[caimekazie.livejournal.com]

Hurrah~!

I think #3 is thoroughly elegant, myself - and markedly better than the "Beethoven/Bartok/Berlioz/?'s ****"

(I'm not actually sure that I want a letter, for the record, and make no promises if you do throw me one.)

[reynardo.livejournal.com]

And for the record, W

Optional, of course

Guess I'll give it a try

[nefaria.livejournal.com]

But give me a sympy letter, not a Fuddy letter!
