Because, TV

It’s been a while since I played a blog game. If you like games, join this one. I adapted this from “If Your Life Was A Movie”, a post I came across as I was trying to ignore the news for the day. I thought it was a cute way to get acquainted with my music library, so what the heck. It was a nice little break from the heaviness of the day, and fun.
How to Play:
Use your playlist for the soundtrack to the big moments in your life. I know I have Shazamed a number of songs that catch my fancy as I watch TV, and Amazon has an amazing partnership with IMDB that allows the viewer to go deeper into a show and see the song being played.
I had fun with this game, and hope you do as well.
Here is how you play:
- Open your library (iTunes, Spotify, Pandora, Media Player, iPod, etc)
- Put it on shuffle
- Press play
- For every question, type the song that’s playing
- When you go to a new question, press the next button
- Don’t lie and try to pretend your cool just go with the music

I added two categories because television is a little different than movies. But here you have it: my TV show in music. I noticed that my taste in music is ALL over the place! I didn’t realize how much Lady Gaga I had in my library. My poor summer worker will be inundated with her today.
