One Artist Remix Version: R.E.M.

One of my first online friends, Mo of Mo's Marketplace, posted his version of this using only Jimmy Buffett songs. I saw this idea circulating around Facebook and decided to give it a whirl. I think Buffett had many more clever song titles for something like this, but R.E.M. is another favorite artist of mine and they've also been around forever with plenty of good songs to choose from.

Using only song names from ONE ARTIST, cleverly answer these questions.

Pick Your Artist: R.E.M.

Are you male or female: Man on the Moon

Describe yourself: Sad Professor

How do you feel about yourself: Monty Got a Raw Deal

Describe where you currently live: Ignoreland

If you could go anywhere, where would you go: Radio Free Europe

Your best friend is: The One I Love

Your favorite color is: Orange Crush

You know that: Can't Get There From Here

What's the weather like: White Tornado

If your life was a TV show, what would it be called: The Sidewinder Sleeps Tonight

What is life to you: It's the End of the World as We Know It (and I Feel Fine)

What is the best advice you have to give: Living Well is the Best Revenge

If you could change your name, what would it be: Old Man Kensey

Your favorite food is: Animal

How do you encourage a loved one: Bang and Blame

First, those seemed a bit on the negative side looking back - however, they were the first songs that I thought of (except for the song Old Man Kensey which I don't have). I bet someone else could use R.E.M and not repeat any of the songs though, most of the questions had multiple songs that would go well with the prompt! I'll be back with a baseball card post later today most likely...but it's fun to take a break and mix it up!
