30 Days of Music – Day 28

The newest song introduced to me this year was from doing this challenge. I love the video for it, but I do love fellow Welsh boy Luke Evans.

Mick Jagger – England Lost

30 Days of Music – Day 23 to 27

After my few days of hiding away to get my depression sorted out, normal service will be resumed.  Rather than back-posting, I thought I would do a collective one covering the days missed, then one from today.

Here goes:-

Day 23 – A summertime song

Don Henley – Boys of Summer

Day 24 – Favourite Rock ‘n Roll Artist

The Beatles – Eleanor Rigby (From “Yellow Submarine”)

Day 25 – Favourite Old Country Artist

Lynn Anderson – I Beg Your Pardon, I Never Promised You A Rose Garden

Day 26 – Favourite New Country Artist

The Cadillac Three – Peace Love & Dixie

Day 27 – A song that moves you forward

Ludovico Einaudi: Divenire

30 Days of Music – Day 22

Today’s task is a song with a number in it, which instantly brought to mind a band I saw back in 1990

The Quireboys – 7 O’Clock

30 Days of Music – Day 21

Today a song with [a] colour in the title. I have been a fan of David Sylvian since the 80’s. He has such a sorrowful tone to his voice, and his lyrics are at times pure poetry.  This song some may know from “Merry Christmas Mr Lawrence” starring the late David Bowie and Ryuichi Sakamoto.

David Sylvian and Ryuichi Sakamoto – Forbidden Colours

30 Days of Music – Day 20

Today’s challenge is a piece of music I would want at my Funeral. I love many requiems, but I think that may be a little long for most people, so my pick for my funeral is…
