Pick A Song...

2:A song (or two) you like with a number in the title






Of course.

So true! Simon and Garfunkel were everywhere in the '70's-their music still holds up today. Such delicate harmonies. The most powerful time travelling I do is with music! I love the image of the record player & all of you gathering together, listening to this album! That's a rich memory.

I have never heard the ABBA song or the Cat Stevens song and I really like them both! How did I escape childhood without hearing them?

Beautiful selections!

DF - I play a little rendition of My Lady D'Arbanville in the wee hours sometimes....



Ha! Seasons in the Sun. I remember tearing up over that one. (This was right around the time of the song Shannon by Henry Gross - another sad song eventually revealed to be about a dog.)

7 Seconds - sway and sway....

10: A song that makes you sad





16:One of your favorite classical songs

[Dee]

What a lovely set of songs to listen to this evening!

I didn't know Lady D'Arbanville. It's growing on me rapidly. Both versions are great. I might be more partial to the one with the richer instrumental texture.

I just sang along with Eva Cassidy in the bathroom, - thank you for that, Lori -, I adore her rendition of Over The Rainbow. It is such a sad song, truly.

And what a gorgeous recital of the 'Meditation from Thaïs'.

Such treasures!

[Lori]

Regarding Cecilia - that is just a straight up sexy sexy song. Naughty but really bold for its time.

10: A song that makes you sad

David Bowie makes me so very sad that sometimes I can barely handle it. But I adore him for it. How can I choose? One sad song leads to another...









Note to self: why don't we have a David Bowie appreciation thread yet? Hm?

[Dee]

3:A song that reminds you of summertime

[Dee]

4:A song that you like about the rain

First song that springs to mind...



Sweet nostalgia.

[NurseRatched]

Great song! It sounds vaguely familiar, too....from way back in the '90s!

[Dee]

1999...

So how about your Rain song, Mz K?

[NurseRatched]

Can't choose just one!

The Rain Song~LZ


Riders on the Storm~The Doors ( not a huge Doors fan, but the addition of the sound of rain/thunder gives this song such a moody vibe; I've always loved it...)


Only Happy when it Rains~Garbage ( nostalgic and I AM only happy when it rains...LOL...JK )
