It's Monday, and again, it's time for music!
Who are the #MusicMovesMe bloggers? We are bloggers who blog about music
each Monday and if you have music to share with us, you are most
welcome to join! (Music Posts Only , please!) First,
there is XmasDolly, now settled in her new blogging home. Her co-hosts are: Stacy of Stacy Uncorked, Cathy from Curious as a Cathy,
and me. Each month we have a guest conductor. Today it's time to thank Xmas Dolly for setting our themes for June.
Xmas Dolly has chosen as her theme "You Pick".
Last week, when I did a 1980's playlist, I had a number of leftover tunes. They will form part of today's post, so let's get going!
From 1981, Kim Carnes and "Bette Davis Eyes".
From 1984, the Cars, and "Drive".
Also, from 1984, "I Want To Know What Love Is" by Foreigner.
For my last two songs, I am going to reach back to 1979. Well, 1979 is nearly in the 80's, right?
While we are in a mellow mood, I am going to include it. Christopher Cross and "Sailing".
Finally, also from 1979, Supertramp and "Goodbye Stranger". (Not mellow, but we needed to wake up and dance.) How I love the ending of this song. It's a good way to end today's post, too.
See you in July, same time, same place!
...a musical period that I most have slept through.
ReplyDeleteAlana,
ReplyDeleteI remember Kim Carnes. She was smokin' hot in the 80s. After I took early retirement to be a full-time mommy in 1988 I lost all track of what was going on with music. I did a quick read on Kim at Wiki. I was a bit surprised to learn she's the same age as my mom. I had no idea. I also read that she lives in Nashville. It seems much of her work is as a songwriter but she has recorded some duets. I always enjoyed her gritty vocals, definitely identifiable and uniquely belonging to Carnes. Your song set is excellent. There's nothing like revisiting yesterday's music. Have a boogietastic week, darlin'! ;)
Excellent selections Alana!
ReplyDeleteI tend to put '79 in the '80's myself. And I like both tunes you chose from '79! I like all these... the '80's seem like forever ago, don't they?
ReplyDeleteGreat choices!
ReplyDeleteThis is a cute meme! I will have to try to remember to participate one week :)
ReplyDeleteAll great songs from the 80s. We listen to an 80s radio station at home. Always brings back great memories!
