1 - There's a story behind every one of these songs. Every song, in some way, relates to an event or period of time in my life. I'll be honest, and admit that not all of the events and emotions attached to these songs are happy. In fact, there are at least two songs that remind me of very difficult times in my life, but those events, no matter how difficult, helped make me who i am today.
2 - I believe this mix makes me out to look like someone who doesn't listen to a ton of mainstream music, someone who most would probably label 'alternative'. I've been accused (haha) of being a part of the 'emo' and 'scene' subcultures, and my musical choices tend to support those accusations, even though I'm not too fond of being dumped into any stereotype.
3 - From this mix, I think people could only really learn what my tastes in music are. There isn't much you can learn by looking at ten songs that have no apparent meaning to any other person except myself. What they aren't going to learn about me is my personality, my likes and dislikes, basically everything about me, minus muscial tastes, of course.
4 - I think that my mix is broad enough that it shows that my tastes aren't confined to one style, and also that the varying topics of the songs show that I don't have a one-track mind, that there are, in fact, other things going through my head other than x or y emotion.
5 - I was fairly accurate when it came to my predictions. I, evidentially, was a year or two off, but I was on the right track. You can guess a lot about people from things like this, but not know. I had guessed that they didn't spend a lot of time finding new music to listen to, and that they were super involved or just really busy. However, I was wrong about how they were involved, saying that they might be in sports or clubs, while she was actually just busy with schoolwork and life in general.
*enjoy.
