<p>Hi,</p>
<p>I am just puzzled by the word 'recording.' Does it refer to a particular song, dvd, or e book?</p>
<p>To me, “recording” refers to an audio recording - a song or album. Certainly not an e-book, in my opinion.</p>
<p>If you’ve really got your knickers in a knot about it you should send an e-mail to Princeton asking for help, though.</p>
<p>I put a song for my ‘favorite recording’ when I did my application last year.</p>
<p>I would think that they are referring to music, however if your favorite recording is of lets say a live broadcast from a speech like FDR’s famous speech, I think that could make for a very interesting twist on the answer. It would be viewed as kind of quirky.</p>
<p>I take it as meaning anything you like to listen to. A song, album, spoken word, audio book, podcast even. If its primary connection to you is via aural means.</p>
<p>Mine was an album but I think most people say a song.</p>
