Salt Lake City Utah www.myspace.com/cherrymermaid CHERRY SAYS: I have an Aunt that I would give velvet to. Actually I wouldn't give it to her for herself, I would give it to one of her family members, so every time they would wear it, she would think of me. My aunt can not stand the touch of velvet, and if you are wearing it and you touch it in front of her, it is like fingers on a chalk board for her. That is why every time I go to any family party, I always wear velvet to it. Can you tell she is my favorite Aunt??!! JONATHAN: LOL...Cherry, the question was about a CD, but I found your response pretty funny. So I ran it anyway. :-) Nicole Cheshire England www.myspace.com/babybotox NICOLE SAYS: Got my practical joke juices flowin now. =D I would make a copy of my Slipknot album and put it inside a theraputic calming music cover.

We went out for a few months and even though I like ALL music apparantly he doesn't. He called my music "butt rock". Whatever, the funny thing is when we first statred dating he'd play or let me listen to whatever I wanted. Boys are SO easy! Anyway, Merry Christmas Andy! Just Maz West Yorkshire United Kingdom www.myspace.com/mazarinathemermaid MAZ SAYS: I wanted to really reply to this one but at this time of year I cannot wish vengence on anyone at all, it is truely best wishes to one and all. So maybe a Cliff Richard album would do both...hehehhehe Phil (aka Justice 101) Buckeye Arizona www.myspace.com/phizzle82 PHIL SAYS: Oh gosh...I'd send my parents the Steve Vai CD, "Passion and Warfare". It's chock full of good tunes and they just refuse to accept electric guitars into their world of music. I'd do it just because they wouldn't accept it normally, but as a gift they'd be obligated to throw it in the CD player once in a while, keep it on the CD shelf and dust it off once in a while, and maybe, just maybe, start liking it. How odd it would be to be teaching my parents about music. This is a good question-too many people I'd give too many CDs to for too many reasons. But my parents would be the first.

Why? Because she can be a real snob and thinks people are beneath her. I'd slip it in her CD player in her car and turn the volume way up and watch out the window as she turns her car on. :D (evil grin) Principessa G New York www.myspace.com/corporate_bs PRINCIPESSA SAYS: Clay Aiken Gloomy Phoenix Arizona www.myspace.com/missgloomygirl GLOOMY SAYS: Anything by Britney Spears! A career made in a studio. The girl couldn't sing to get free panties at Victoria's Secret, and god knows she could use them! Even American Idol rejects have the balls to sing in public. I could keep going about this talentless hack all day, but I don't want to bore you. peace~Gloomy T*I*N*A Texarkana Arkansas www.myspace.com/misstina3189 TINA SAYS: You are too good at this stuff my friend! I got a good laugh out of this one instantly! I've had this done to me! On my fortieth birthday my brother (who surely has at least a million artists stored in his brain) presented me with a pretty package with a CD. Inside, nothing unusual being is he, to me, is the knowledge of music and I have aspired to keep on his level for...all my life, so when I pull- ed the CD out and looked at it and then at him and back at the CD, trying not to give away the fact I had no clue who this was, I didn't know what to say or do! All I could do was look stupid and he played it out for too long, never letting me know that I shouldn't be just thrilled at receiving such a fine gift (and acted like I should be ashamed at not knowing such a classic)! I was relieved when he let go of the joke! I felt beneath him once again! Well anyway...here is an image (above) of what that CD was (not to take away from the artist by no means)...I was just ignorant to their existance! Lamia Cross Singer/Songwriter Paris France www.myspace.com/melamia LAMIA SAYS: hahaha that's great. ^_^!!

Billie (aka ·!·PuNkPisToL·!·) Auckland New Zealand www.myspace.com/redlips_heels_rock BILLIE SAYS: Hey Jonathan, How are ya mate?! This one is somewhat easy. I have a really good mate "Jemma" who absolutely abhors Christmas carols, and more so if they're classics by like likes of Bing Crosby and Dean Martin etc. So with the Christmas spirit in mind I would present her with a CD which consists of golden oldies carols.

Well, I have to say I would probably get my bloke who is an old punk and bassist for a punk band, like Will Smith Big Willie style, because of his deep abhorrence toward R & B and rap.

Gilz (aka -x-Not so Innocent-x-) United Kingdom www.myspace.com/twistedgilz GILZ SAYS: Hi Jonathan. I would have to buy my Hubby (Dave) a really cheesey Christmas CD as he can't stand seasonal xmas songs as at this time of year. They take over the airwaves and regardless of where you shop they always play them. That's why I have the greatest ever Christmas album ever.

Either that or anything by Deicide! Feathers Leeds, West Yorkshire England www.myspace.com/only1feathers FEATHERS SAYS: I would have to give a CD single to my ex-boyfriend Dean who used to take longer than me to get ready to go out, preened his hair to perfection and used half a can of hairspray. Went to bed at night with a gum shield full of tooth whitener, put blue eye drops in his eyes every 2 minutes to make them sparkly white etc etc etc. And, when he was out he used to gyrate on the dance floor and flash a smile whiter than white to all who were looking whilst throwing his arms around and rotating them around each other like a helicopter. Everyone who didn't know him thought he was gay and my sister and mum especially used to tease him and his nickname "Pearly Queen" came from sitting in the cinema one night and seeing the trailor by "Pearl & Dean". So the CD for the Pearly one would have to be ABBA's "Dancing Queen". :) PS: he is also on My Space if you ever want to see the poser for yourself!! (We are still mates -kind of, he's my best mate in his dreams and I tolerate it) December 19 Alyssa Milano The Brooklyn born babe was born in 1972. One day, her babysitter, who was an aspiring dancer, dragged Alyssa along to a an open audtion for the first national tour of Annie. But it was Alyssa, not the sitter, who beat out 1,500 other wanna be stage actresses to snag a role. So at the tender age of seven, with her mother in tow, Alyssa joined the tour as July, one of the orphans. After 18 months on the road, Alyssa, who had begun to garner a reputation as an energetic and charism- atic young actress, left Annie to be featured in off-Broadway productions and tele- vision commercials. Then, in 1983 at age 10, she landed her breakthrough role on the new sitcom "Who's the Boss?" (1984) as Tony Danza's saccharine sweet daug- hter, Samantha Micelli, a kid whose native Brooklyn accent rivaled her TV dad's. In order for Alyssa to accept the gig, the Milano family had to uproot and move 3,000 miles to Hollywood. Had a best-selling excercise video in 1988 called Teen Steam. Alyssa has seven tattoos. She has a sacred heart on her behind, a fairy kneeling in grass on her hip, rosary beads on her back, an angel on her left ankle, an Orobous (a snake biting its own tail) on her right wrist, an "om" on the other wrist and a ga- rland of flowers around her right ankle.
