It's Monday and it's time for music!
Today I am joining up with other Music Moves Me bloggers (and you can join us at the linky above). We are a group of music loving bloggers who blog about music each Sunday or Monday (or even later in the week). 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 link may be labeled "No Music" or even removed.)
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. This week's theme is "It's your graduation, what year is it?"
Well, that depends on which graduation I'm thinking of. There's elementary school, junior high (nowadays called middle school), high school, and college.
So I won't say which one I'm paying tribute to, but the year I chose was 1970. Here are some songs from the Billboard charts from June of 1970.
Ball of Confusion (That's What the World is Today) - The Temptations
Which Way You Going, Billy?- The Poppy Family feat. Susan Jacks
The Letter - Joe Cocker was one of these covers that, in my opinion, was better than the original.
Vehicle - The Ides of March. I chose a live version from 2014 because of its power. Rock on!
And, to end the set, two of my favorites: First, The Beatles and The Long and Winding Road.
And, last but certainly not least, Miguel Rios and Song of Joy.
And that's a wrap!
Join me gain next week for another episode of Music Moves Me.
I love the Poppy Family, The Beatles and The Temptations out of this list.
ReplyDelete...few I know.
ReplyDeleteAll great choices!
ReplyDeleteThe 70s was a great era. My favorite span of time is the 60s - 80 for music. By the time the 90s rolled in the talent started disappearing. There were a few good hits to come from that decade but nothing like the previous 30 years, though.
ReplyDeleteHave a boogietstic week, darlin'! xo
Very nice choices.
ReplyDeleteThese are all excellent and love the last one who did a great job with the 9th Symphony, Ode to Joy.
