Question of the Week suggestions
Each week we ask a question. The idea is to generate material that's:
* interesting to read, i.e. we won't get bored of reading the answers after about 10 of them
* not been asked on this site before
* fun to answer
What would you like to ask? (We've left this question open - so feel free to drop in ideas anytime.)

Soundtrack to your life
Reading about 'Everybody hurts' being hi-jacked by Simon Cowell reminds me of the time (many years ago) when that song was playing on my Walkman (yeah, I know) on my way to work one winter's morning. Ahead of me, about twenty feet, were a mum and little kid walking along on the way to school, when the child slipped on some frost and fell on his face. "Everybody huu-uurts, some time" played away in my ears as the poor wee mite burst into tears and ran for comfort from his mum.
Tell us about songs that mean something to you - good, bad, funny or tragic, appropriate or totally inappropriate songs that were playing at key times, or just walking down the street.
[...and Mods - I've done loads of good suggestions over the years which would have allowed you to do a new topic, rather than re-cycling old ones and they've never been picked.So how about it? Huh? Huh?]

Yes
I really like this. It would be interesting answers...
For me, I can't listen to More Yellow Birds by Sparklehorse without crying, for reasons I will reveal should this become a QOTW.

I agree.
This is a nice and original one, and has potential for some really good answers rather than the usual wanking and lies.
