Happy Easter this morning to all who celebrate.
It's also the last day of March, the last day before the beginning of the Blogging from A to Z Challenge, and time for music and some shadowshots. Two memes for the price of one today.
Let's introduce the Music Moves me bloggers: We 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! Otherwise, your post may be removed, or may be labeled "No Music".) 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, last but not least, me.
Every other week, we have a theme. On alternate weeks, we can blog on any music theme we want. Today is a theme week, and it was chosen by lil' old me.
Today's theme is Music That Moves You. It's free choice day.
And since it's Shadowshot Sunday, brought to us by Lisa at Lisa's Garden Adventures, how about some shadow pictures and shadow music?
Last of my crocus (yesterday).
First of my jonquils (yesterday).
And now some shadowy music. First up,Whispering Jack Smith singing the 1927 hit "Me and My Shadow".
Standing in the Shadows of Love, from the Four Tops (1966).
Have You Seen Your Mother, Baby, Standing in the Shadow - Rolling Stones, also from 1966.
One more - Gene Autry and his hit "Peter Cottontail".
And that's a hippity hoppity wrap!
Join me again next Monday (April 8) for another episode of Music Moves Me. And please join me in April for the Blogging from A to Z Challenge. My theme will be Gardens, History, Art and The Unexpected.
...a diverse playlist, I wish you a wonderful new week.
ReplyDeleteQuite a diverse playlist. My cat Shadow loved the shadow songs
ReplyDeleteLet's do this AtoZ Challenge. Your theme is as diverse as today's playlist. I know it will be interesting and fun...I'll be there!!! I've written through Letter 'I' and still working on the rest. Trying to stay ahead...April is going to be a busy month.
ReplyDeleteGreat flowers!! And music videos as a bonus.
ReplyDeleteI might have to find a video to go with my shadow post to join in this.
Very clever how you joined the two blog hops!
ReplyDeletePretty flowers.
ReplyDeleteI didn't realise it was Gene Autry singing Peter Cottontail. I used to love that song (and his show, tho I barely remember what was on it...we got it super early in the morning before the cartoons...)
ReplyDeleteA nice playlist to go through
ReplyDeleteFabulous shadow song collection! Peter Cottontail is such a fun old classic. :) Have a boogietastic week, Alana!
ReplyDeleteOh my PETER COTTONTAIL. Takes me back. Happy Spring. Tweeted
ReplyDeleteI love Music Mondays. Always something fun.
ReplyDeleteSuch great songs here. I always love hearing The Ol'Cowboy (Gene Autry) sing.
ReplyDeleteI love the spring flowers. So beautiful.
ReplyDeleteLove your videos. Some I've not heard in years and years.
Have a fabulous day, week and month. ♥
Easter Parade… and Peter Cottontail… takes me back many decades as these were songs my mom loved and encouraged me to sing when I was an itty bitty. Thanks for reminding me.
ReplyDeleteI've fallen behind due to being sick but I love all your entries. I love Easter Patade and just watched it again. It's sheer delight
