So, yes, I dropped the ball on this. Here are the remaining days. Some are unanswered because, well, I got stuck on them which is what derailed this.

Day 14 - A song that no one would expect you to love
I don't know what everyone expects. I'm not sure I can meet this one. In fact, since I am a largely predictable me, I'm pretty sure I can't. Maybe Matt Nathanson's "Come on Get Higher".
Day 15 - A song that describes you
...sorry, no one's written a song about me, and it's never occurred to me to try to describe myself in music. I have no answer here.
Day 16 - A song that you used to love but now hate
I suppose Long Black Veil is closest. I loved the sound as a kid, and didn't really get what it was about. But even that I only dislike.
Day 17 - A song that you hear often on the radio
Lately, Owl City's "Fireflies". (Official video. Love the music, don't love the video. Oh well.)
Day 18 - A song that you wish you heard on the radio
Most of my music I do. And a lot of the rest wouldn't do well there, being filk, and maybe more exposure than the artists want.
Day 19 - A song from your favorite album
Argh. I don't tend to pick favorite albums. I'll pick among the ones with the most songs in my 4-and-5-star categories right now I guess....
In which case, Seanan McGuire, "Earthquake Weather" or from Stars Fall Home.
Day 20 - A song that you listen to when you’re angry
Drawing a blank here. Usually whatever is on the radio - I don't have 'angry' music.
Day 21 - A song that you listen to when you’re happy
...this could be the bulk of my playlist. Hmm. Gloria Estefan's "Turn the Beat Around", then.
Day 22 - A song that you listen to when you’re sad
If I'm wallowing, Beth Nielsen Chapman's "Sand and Water" - but I already used that on day #4 since it makes me sad, too. Hmm. How about Jewel's "Hands"?
Day 23 - A song that you want to play at your wedding
I'm already married and I didn't have music at my wedding (gasp). But I think if I had to I'd be boring and pick "The Wedding Song". Or just a mix of nice happy love songs, but not any particular one.
Day 24 - A song that you want to play at your funeral
Honestly, I don't think I care what plays at my funeral half as much as the people I leave behind will. I want what they want to be played then. "On Eagle's Wings" is lovely, comforting, and traditional, though.
Day 25 - A song that makes you laugh
Tom Smith, "Smash the Frickin' Fairies".
Day 26 - A song that you can play on an instrument
Yeah, no. I played trombone in junior high - it's been so long I can't even remember what I could play then, let alone play anything.
Day 27 - A song that you wish you could play
See above. I am not particularly a performer or instrumentalist at heart, I fear.
Day 28 - A song that makes you feel guilty
...sorry, don't have one.
Day 29 - A song from your childhood
Johnny Cash, "I Walk the Line" - which I totally misunderstood at about five years old and amused my Mom by walking back and forth on an invisible line on the carpet as my 'dance' for it.
Day 30 - Your favorite song at this time last year
No idea.
