So Far Away (Please don't go by the title )

First things first : My comp is back in business after a lay off period of more than a month. This affords me the opportunity to give some much needed attention to my dear blog. And i start off with the tagging business. I had been tagged and it was high time i got rid of the burden of that tag :D
The tag is one of the more interesting tags that i have come across. Best part is that you don't have to think a lot about what to write :)
The rather simple rules are
1. Put your mp3 player on shuffle
2.For each question, press the next button to get your answer
3. You must write the name of the song, no matter what

IF SOMEONE SAYS “IS THIS OKAY?” YOU SAY?

Have you seen the saucers- Jefferson Airplane (UFO connect, eh? )

WHAT WOULD BEST DESCRIBE YOUR PERSONALITY?
When I am gone - 3 Doors Down (So very true :P )


WHAT DO YOU LIKE IN A GUY/GIRL?
Peaceful Easy Feeling - Eagles (Don't think i am asking for too much, am I?)

HOW DO YOU FEEL TODAY?
Wonderwall - Oasis(hehe)



WHAT IS YOUR LIFE’S PURPOSE?
Summer's gone -Placebo ( Have i already outlived my years on earth :-?)

WHAT IS YOUR MOTTO?
Somewhere they can't find me -Simon and Garfunkel (I have always shunned well deserved fame :P)

WHAT DO YOUR FRIENDS THINK OF YOU?
My Friend, My friend -Phish (This is incredibly spooky and i have started to enjoy it)

WHAT DO YOU THINK OF YOUR PARENTS?
Lightbulb Sun - Porcupine Tree (Good son, God son!)

WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT VERY OFTEN?
Karma Police - Radiohead (Now veering towards spiritualism)

WHAT IS 2+2?
Simple Man -Lynrrd Skynrrd (quite a simple question)


WHAT DO YOU THINK OF YOUR BEST FRIEND?
Lend me your comb - Beatles (Sharing everything:D )

WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THE PERSON YOU LIKE?
Torture Me - RHCP (is it the person i like or dislike ?)


WHAT IS YOUR LIFE STORY?
Morning Glory-Oasis (This is the best answer so far ;) )

WHAT DO YOU WANT TO BE WHEN YOU GROW UP?
Hate to say i told you so - The Hives (The kind your mom warned you about, huh?

WHAT DO YOU THINK WHEN YOU SEE THE PERSON YOU LIKE?
Born to run - Bruce Springsteen (Can anyone decipher that for me? )


WHAT DO YOUR PARENTS THINK OF YOU?
No woman, No cry- Bob Marley (Parents are sympathizers, after all :( )


WHAT WILL YOU DANCE TO AT YOUR WEDDING?
Voodoo Child - Jimi Hendrix :))

WHAT WILL THEY PLAY AT YOUR FUNERAL?
House of the rising sun - Animals (Will my death be that tragic? )


WHAT IS YOUR HOBBY/INTEREST?
Faceless Man - Creed (Hobbyless man, u mean? )

WHAT IS YOUR BIGGEST SECRET?
Breakfast at Tiffany's - Deep Blue Something (My claim to fame-yay!! )

WHAT DO YOU THINK OF YOUR FRIENDS?
Stormbringer - Deep Purple (Storm in a tea cup :D )

WHAT SHOULD YOU POST THIS AS?
So Far Away- Dire Straits (I don't quite like the title of the post, but whatever)

I won't tag anybody and risk being damned for the rest of my life. Believe me, people can become quite vindictive when it comes down to tagging. So i would leave it to the reader to decide whether he would take up the challenge or not :P

theory clear, the practical aspect of tagging is STILL a mystery :P

btw...the best bits were HOW ARE YOU FEELING TODAY and WHAT DO YOU THINK OF YOUR PARENTS. :)

Sitting in London your blog makes me feel so close to India :)
This was a brilliant tag idea.. one of the best tagging idea whosoever came up with.
Liked most of the responses and your witty sideys as well ;)
But the spookiest was 'my friend, my friend'. Incidentally Phish also happens to be my favorite.. so liked the coincidence all the more.
Keep blogging delhi boy :)

@kritika
What? After having taken so much trouble to explain what a tag is all about :| *Speechless*
2nd part.. yes the 2nd part :(

@ruchikaa
First things first : You actually did some numerology with your name or just that you are abnormally high these days?
Or is it the firang effect?
Btw, how is London treating you delhi girl?

Finally :)

Isn't this a little spooky??? The best part is you get an idea of people's music tastes...

I went off by the title of the post despite being warned against it. I almost assumed that you had suddenly become the romance-seekers type and was geared up for some leg pulling.
But..
NICE TAG !!

@all that matters
'best part is you get an idea of people's music tastes'.. Not very sure if its the best part or the worst part of it, people start getting judgemental?
Spooky.. sure it is. But the 'degree of spookiness' in my case is nothing when compared to yours :D
keep visiting :)

@vedant
If you were left disappointed, then my day is made ;)

OMG... the weirdest (euphemism!) tag iv ever seen!! Kudos to you for taking up the challenge and still managing to come out with a fairly reasonable post! Good you didnt further the pain by tagging any specific people at the end of it all!
