"The Multiple Intelligences Test" thing seems to be more a "multiple activities confidence test" thing.
I'm apparently not all that confident (except in music -- (Li9,Lo-M:8,S:3,BK6,M12,Inter:7,Intra:2).
In other news, I've sorta caught up on A&E commenting, have read the new Mckillip (really good, though not, I think, as good as _Serre_), and the latest Hobb (does a nice job of wrapping up the 6 book novel about FitzChivalry).
On a filkish nature, I've noticed that my preferred repetoire seems to shift faster than I can either memorize songs or write new ones, which leaves me with less to sing at a filksing than I'd like. So, frex, I've mostly stopped doing a lot of my Tom Smith repetoire, for one reason or another, and don't do a lot of the Heather Alexander stuff as much either.
Which does mean I need to find (or write, but I've never learned to write them) some more pretty fantasy ballads that fit my dramatic/vocal range.

Fair Was the Blossom (ditto)
The Lady (Jodi Krangle)
(Falling Free, PQR and Hellraiser may be some of the Tom Smith you've given up on)
(Starsoul by Jodi Krangle is science fiction oriented rather than fantasy, but otherwise seems to fit your tastes)
That's just a very quick flip through my songbook, but it's something at least. ACat (with minor help from me) recently wrote a Return of the King filk that's still untitled but to the tune of Least of My Kind.

You're basically right about Falling Free and Hellraiser -- they're both songs I know cold and have rehersed to death, but I don't do them as often as I'd like, and for more than one reason.
Fair was the Blossom I should really take another look at; the same for Starsoul -- Thanks!
(of course, my song TTTO Least of My Kind is more of a "reply" -- which does beg the question of when to do it).
