It's Monday and it's time for music!
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 host is Xmas Dolly, and our co-hosts are Cathy from Curious as a Cathy, joined by the knowledgeable Stacy of Stacy Uncorked and Yours Truly.
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. No music video? Your post may be removed, or may be labeled *NO MUSIC*.
Today's theme is "You Pick" and I'm going to do just that.
What better in very warm and humid weather but to do some dreaming.
I must include the 1968 hit for the Monkees, Daydream Believer, because it is such a good song, and because someone whose blog is part of this blog hop would probably never read my blog again if I didn't. No, seriously, it's a great song, written by John Stewart of The Kingston Trio and turned down by several artists before the Monkees took it on. The Monkees ended up changing one word to better fit their brand.
From 1986, Van Halen - Dreams. I woke up several times this week thinking of this song. Dare I call it a dreamworm?
Also from 1986, Crowded House - Don't Dream It's Over.
Last but not least, Boulevard of Broken Dreams from Green Day, a 2004 hit for them.
And that's a wrap!
Join me again next week for another episode of Music Moves Me.
I kind of get hooked on "Don't dream it is over"
ReplyDeleteHey Girlfriend, you have rocked the house, but for me it's some ungodly hour in the a.m. time for bed. WE'll ROCK tomorrow!!! Hugs.... Marie OOOOOOO GREAT TUNES!!!! OH YEAH!
ReplyDelete...I'm going with Daydream Believer!
ReplyDeleteSuch great tunes here. Very nice.
ReplyDeleteAlana,
ReplyDeleteYeah, this weather causes me to do a little day dreaming about the cooler days of fall. I'm ready for it, too! I got outside on Saturday to do some yard work and WOW is all I can say! I came in the house drenched with glisten and my face super red. DH said it looked like I was sunburned but it wasn't that, it was the heat. Fantastic theme and some great songs that fit perfectly. I love the 80s sound of Heart! Have a boogietastic week, my dear! xo
I was always a fan of Heart. Their music was soooo good. Daydream Believer might have been the best Monkees recording, but I was partial to Anne Murray. Have a blessed day.
ReplyDeleteGreat songs! Daydream Believer is one of my all-time favorites
ReplyDeleteGreat songs! Daydream Believer is one of my all-time favourites!
ReplyDeleteYour selections are dreamy! :) Thanks for the dance my friend! :)
ReplyDeleteDreams always provide the basis for great songs. I also love "Don't dream it's over." Thanks
ReplyDeleteI always end up adding songs to my Alexa playlist after reading Music Mondays. You remind me of so many old hits.
ReplyDeleteGreat songs!
ReplyDeleteSome good tunes here except not a Green Day fan. Fond memories listening to some of the older ones...I can't believe I just wrote that.
ReplyDeleteGreat theme and great choices
ReplyDeleteWell Alana I love all those dreamy songs.
ReplyDelete.my favourite has to be Boulevard of Broken Dreams by Green Day, though Don't bdream it's over and Daydream Believer have special memories too 💜💜💜
I don't know why no one has come to see me. This is starting to get pretty depressing. Did I do something wrong again? Anyway, I'm planning on moving and trying blogspot again myself. This Wordpress hates me and I don't know what I'm doing. Talk at ya later. Great tunes my friend... LOVE HEART!
ReplyDeleteLook at this I can't even sign in. This is the pits. No one can find me & I can't sign in. This is the pits! Great tunes my friend... love Heart!
ReplyDeleteDreams and music go well together. Like your choices.
ReplyDeleteI like your selections: my favorite is Heart's These Dreams.
ReplyDeleteMost of these songs stumped me. I knew the last two.
