Songs of my life

Have you ever thought about the music in your life? We all have our favourite songs and albums but then there's the music that we remember because of what it meant to us at certain times in our lives, the soundtrack to our lives.

I wrote a post a while ago about the soundtrack to my life but I thought afterward that it felt incomplete; it was a list of songs I remembered playing during my life but they weren't all my favourite songs, the ones that really mean something to me.

So I thought I'd do a second list. These are the 10 songs I think best reflect my life, who I am up until now. It was harder to do than I thought but it was a lot of fun too. I wonder what your list would be? ;)

Fall At Your FeetCrowded House The finger of blame has turned upon itselfAnd I’m more than willing to offer myselfDo you want my presence or need my help?
