Musical Acrostic #MusicMovesMe

It's Monday, and guess what it's time for?

Yes, it's time for music, brought to you by Music Moves Me.

Who are the Music Moves Me bloggers? We are bloggers who blog about music each Sunday or 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 (last but not least) me.

Why not join our music loving folks?  It's so easy. 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 or your post will be subject to removal or labeling "No Music").That's all it takes!

Each month, except December, we have a guest host. For September, we welcome a new guest host:  John from "The Sound of One Hand Typing".

This week, John picks "in honor of Better Breakfast Week, make a music acrostic that spells out 'Breakfast'".

Here's my selection.  You'll forgive me if only one of the songs, the first one, has anything to do with breakfast.   But maybe, some of these would be good listenings during breakfast.

B - Breakfast in America - Supertramp, from 1979.  We had this on vinyl.

R -Remember (Walking in the Sand) - The Shangri-Las, from 1964.  I've had this song on my blog before; it deserves many more listenings.

E- Everlong, from the Foo Fighters (1997)


A- Africa, from Toto.  This is such a beautiful song and it's wonderful to know Toto is still touring after all these years.

K - Keep on Dancing, from The Gentrys (1965).  I owned this song on a 45.

F -Feelin' Stronger Every Day - Chicago (1973).  My spouse had the original song on a vinyl album.

A- Albert Flasher, by the Guess Who (1972). I've never understood the lyrics, but I sure love the song. I had this song on a Greatest Hits vinyl album.  Hmmmm, am I beginning a theme here?  Not quite.

S - She's Not There - The Zombies (1965). Another song that I owned the 45 to.  This was the first American hit for the Zombies.

It's time for our last song, and I am choosing an instrumental from my childhood.

T- Telstar, a 1962 hit for The Tornadoes.  And no, I didn't own a 45 or an album.

That's a wrap for my Breakfast of Champions.

Join me again next week, same time, same place, for another episode of Music Moves Me.

  1. Great picks for your acrostic (especially that first one - lol!) I particularly liked walking down memory lane with Feeling Stronger Every Day and She's Not There! :-)

  2. Now I’m annoyed with myself because I bought the Breakfast in America album when it first came out and played it until the vinyl wore thin, but somehow forgot about that song. Great choices this week.

  8. Alana,

    I enjoyed your song picks. I forgot about the song "Telstar" by The Tornadoes. I remember hearing this when I was a kid. I'm not sure if I've heard it since then but surely I'm just remembering wrong. Have a boogietastic day, my friend!
