know & tell … music

Oct-10-2008 By mylifeasannie

1. Do you play any musical instruments? If so, which one(s)? If not, is there one you always wanted to know how to play?
I played the clarinet and oboe in junior high.  I liked the oboe the best because no one else knew how to play it so it was different… but I soon decided I was not meant for band life and stopped playing.  I would love to learn to play the piano now.  I would love to take lessons…  too bad we gave our piano away.

2. Do you sing well? Do you sing along in the car? Do you use head motions?
I love to sing.  I sang some solos at talents shows in junior high… but looking back realize I am not a very good singer.

3. Who was your teen music crush?
Probably Shaun Cassidy.  I had bell bottom jeans with his picture on them!

4. What is your favorite type of music?
Contemporary Christian music is my favorite type of music, although I do like classic 80’s.

5. Who are your three favorite musical artists?
Beth Nielson Chapman, Eva Cassidy, and Casting Crowns.

6. Does your church play traditional or praise songs, or a combination?
Mostly praise, but both I suppose.

7. What is your favorite hymn?
I love the newer version of amazing grace…

8. What is your favorite praise song?
Right now I love “Lord, You’re Holy by Karen Wheaton” and “The Presence of the Lord is Here by Byron Cage.”

9. What is the strangest musician’s name whose music you like?
Basia! I heart Basia.
Here’s the bonus question that you get to answer with a question. What one question would you like for Heather and Reese to ask in a future KATF? Just DON’T answer it yet. It can be something random, something you’d just love to know about everyone else…just whatever floats your boat. Go for it!
What would be in your perfect picnic lunch?  (this question inspired by my quest for food to pack for my lunch for the field trip I am getting ready for… we’re going to a pumpkin patch and corn maze!) I didn’t have time to link to the songs and artists because I am leaving in one hour and have a list of things to accomplish before my time is up… Have a great Friday!  Visit Kayren to play along!

    I am so jealous that you had jeans with Shaun’s picture on them…and bell bottoms at that! You must have been hot stuff!

    I love Casting Crowns too. I’m going to check out the two praise songs you mentioned. I think I might know the first one but I’m not sure. I think we sang that new version of Amazing Grace in church a couple of Sunday mornings ago. It was pretty.

    I saw your field trip pictures in the fave 5 post and it looks like you had a great time.

    Thanks for playing!

    Blessings,
    Kayren

    I think you’re probably being modest about your ability to sing.

    I’ve been taking piano lessons for years–love to play but mainly just for myself. (It’s very relaxing for me ; )
