OK, spagyricus, you've thrown down the gauntlet ….

1. How does the world see me?
She Is - Tim Buckley
(this makes me out to be a beacon of camp profundity - it lies … well, about the camp bit at least)

2. Will I have a happy life?
Just Like This Train - Joni Mitchell
(is it coming towards me? am I tied to the rails? am I on it? maybe I've missed it?)

3. What do my friends really think of me?
Waking The Witch - Kate Bush
(i'm not that short-tempered, am I?)

4. Do people secretly lust after me?
The Good Life - Julie London
(am I Penelope Keith? Richard Briers? Paul Eddington? Felicity Kendal? choose your fantasy)

5. How can I make myself happy?
Karmacoma - Massive Attack
(so I was right all along - drugs IS the answer)

6. What should I do with my life?
Girlfriend In A Coma - The Smiths
(firstly he's a boyfriend, and much as he might piss me off at times, this does seem too harsh even for me)

7. Will I ever have children?
Squeeze Bees - Ivor Cutler
(maybe not children then, but "plenty of honey")

8. What is some good advice for me?
Status Quo - Throwing Muses
(hey, c'mon, like I don't need any excuses for indolence)

9. How will I be remembered?
Gently Johnny - Paul Giovanni (from The Wicker Man Soundtrack)
(i can think of worse things than being remembered as a pagan lovefest)

10. What is my signature dancing song?
Gin - Tiger Lillies (with Kronos Quartet)
(bizarrely accurate as it takes loads of gin to get me dancing)

11. What do I think my current theme song is?
In The Morning Of The Magicians - The Flaming Lips
12. What does everyone else think my current theme song is?
Heartattack and Vine - Tom Waits
(great, i think i'm full of the incredible lightness of being, but everyone else thinks I'm fit for the grave)

13. What song will play at my funeral?
Stravinsky: The Rite Of Spring: Pt 2: The Glorification Of The Chosen One - Rafael Frübeck de Burgos; New Philharmonic Orchestra
(i really can't comment on this one!)

14. What type of men/women do you like?
In My Arms - Rufus Wainwright
(clearly I'm not choosy - they just have to be available)

15. What is my day going to be like?
Madder - Groove Armada
(an eternal truth)

16. Will I ever have love again?
Moroccan Peoples Revolutionary Bowls Club - Blur
(I guess people have found love in stranger places)
