Today, we are taking a trip through music associated with the letter "U" for two memes. Music Moves Me and the Blogging from A to Z Challenge.
Who
are the Music Moves Me 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-meaning at least one music video,
please!) Our head hostess is Cathy from Curious as a Cathy, and she is joined by the knowledgeable Stacy of Stacy Uncorked, and
little ol' me. Our founder, Xmas Dolly, has stepped back from blogging
for now, and would appreciate your good thoughts as she works through
some health issues.
We'd
love more music lovers to join our fun group. All you have to do is
join the linky above with a music post that contains at least one music
video (there must be a music video). That's it!
Each month, except December, we have a guest conductor. For the month of April, our guest conductor is none other than ME!
For today, I am choosing the theme "You Pick" and I am picking "U" Music. Our first two songs have "U" as the first word in the title. The others...well, let's see.
From 1987, Prince - U Got the Look
M.C. Hammer - U Can't Touch This
UB40's 1983 hit "Red Red Wine".
From 1961, Ray Charles and "Unchain My Heart".
Finally, a long selection but so worth your time. From the iconic Dark Side of the Moon album, Pink Floyd's Us and Them.
And that's a wrap!
This is the last Monday for me as guest host, and the last Monday of the Blogging from A to Z Challenge. But I hope you will join me again next Monday, May Day, for another episode of Music Moves Me, with a new guest host for the month.
...the last two are my favorites.
ReplyDeleteFun choices today!!
ReplyDeleteVery eclectic playlist. Have a great Monday
ReplyDeleteReally great songs today! I've got a couple warring for supremacy in my brain now! It's a good day!
ReplyDeleteAlana,
ReplyDeleteExcellent set of songs for an A2Z post and for your choice song picks week. You did a fab job on this month's 4M themes. It's always such fun dancing with you. It looks like we're just about ready to cross the A2Z finish line in a few days. I for one will be happy to see this challenge behind me for another year. lol I really haven't done well with keeping up with others and for this I'm very sorry, dear friend. Have a boogietastic week and keep movin' to the music!
Love all these. Had to stop what I was doing and play "Hammer Time." And yes, I danced a little!
ReplyDeleteGreat job finding U songs and artists. :)
ReplyDeleteI've heard of the artists, and maybe I'd recognize the songs if I heard them, but the names are unfamiliar to me. I like how you used the letter of the day for your Monday music!
ReplyDeleteNice job this month! I love that Hammer video...
ReplyDeleteNever did hear that Prince song before. But U nailed the rest of them for me.
ReplyDeleteYou reminded me of my childhood favourites Prince, U2, and UB40. Going back to listen to them. Thank you for sharing. Dropping in through A to Z Challenge from deeptechwriter.wordpress.com
