What song are you listening to?

[AxelAnnie]

I have Javier's FS music constantly looping in my head. It was actually a useful rhythm the other day for my riding lesson!

 

[paskatefan]

^ Guys & Dolls has so much wonderful music in it! I'm shocked that I didn't grow up with this musical! Better late than never!

 

[Aussie Willy]

My favourite song of the moment - Safia - Make them wheels roll - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=318fAT1YXr8. It is only an audio. This guy has an amazing voice. He also is on Peking Duk - Say my name - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AYbP-fkiJ0o.

He is also on this song by Alison Wonderland - Take it to reality - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fE7FTfpsb-w

And another one Alison Wonderland - Already Gone - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Q0_ixCbdeo

I really like Bieber's new single Love Yourself and I'm not a fan of his.

Same here. Not a fan .... but I do kinda like this song. And you totally know that "Love" is not the word they were going for here. Whenever I hear it I sing it with the word they really mean.

Listening to Pink Floyd songs --- IN MY HEAD --- from watching a concert on VH1 classic last night. Fell asleep during a commercial (too many) and had to wake up and turn the t.v. off. I've been up for almost 4 hours and I'm still hearing Wish You Were Here and Shine On You Crazy Diamond. Good stuff.

 

[Johnny_Fever]

I grew up listening the Pink Floyd songs like Breathe. I recently discovered Neil Young's Down By The River, and realized that its basically the same song written 4 years earlier.

 

[Susan1]

Was busy during Breakfast with the Beatles. On the radio now is Life's Been Good to Me. Turning off the radio now...........

 

[Johnny_Fever]

You're turning off Joe Walsh? Blasphemy.

 

[Susan1]

You're turning off Joe Walsh? Blasphemy.

It's just that LOOOOOOOONG boring song I don't like! Rocky Mountain Way I would have cranked up! Always reminds me of being in the car going to a high school football game. (*I* wasn't old enough to be driving!)

 

[easilydistracte]

"Aujourd 'hui C'Est Toi"--my favorite song off the soundtrack from A Man and a Woman: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=80fBIdJqRDA

 

[Vash01]

Dark Eyes (Ochi Chorniye) sung by Pavaroti. I never knew he sang in Russian.

 

[Susan1]

Back Off Boogaloo - Ringo Starr

 

[Cachoo]

There are melodies that simply get me going: The lyrics are fine but it is the melodies that wake me up. I need these songs some mornings:

Imagine Dragons- It's Time https://youtu.be/sENM2wA_FTg

One Republic - Feel Again https://youtu.be/2tMKO_9SD1Y

and an old one hit wonder

New Radicals - You Get What You Give https://youtu.be/cPAEFnVZVOs

It is all about the melody for me in these songs. And now I'm ready for the rest of the day.

Not listening to anything as I am at work, but for some reason Peter and the Wolf keeps running through my head.

 

[Susan1]

Why did seeing Diamond Girl make me think of this (not even the same year!) -
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvVN_KRriTM

(crank up your sound!!!!!)
Chills, big time. (It's 80* here!) Must be the horns - Chicago, Blood, Sweat and Tears, Ides of March, oh my!!!! (My friend Shauna and I made up a baton routine to it.)

Oh gosh! I completely forgot about that song! Love it, too! Now, you've made me think of a song by Yes that I haven't heard for a long time, too. I have it on their greatest hits album.

Anyway, this song popped into my head!

Roundabout

 

[Susan1]

Have to drag this thread to the top on Sunday mornings.

Long and Winding Road

After listening to American Top 40 - the Seventies: this week in 1971!!!!! Timothy, Friends (Elton John), Chickaboom, Love Story, Eighteen, Bread, Carpenters, Three Dog Night. Such good memories of my childhood.

And while I was typing that - Strawberry Fields came on.

 

[Simone411]

Listening to Enchanted: The Works of Stevie Nicks CD set. Just listened to four of my faves:

Stand Back

Nightbird

Blue Denim

Edge of Seventeen

Also found this on YouTube. Stevie Nicks pays tribute to Prince: Thousand Days

I don't enjoy most popular current country music, but my husband saw Chris Stapleton perform on an awards show and was so impressed that he added Chris's whole album Traveller to our Spotify playlist. I don't think there is a single song from it that I would remove from our list.

For the last week, every time he cleans, he has Chris's music cranked and he is belting it out too, and it sounds great.

Stapleton was the real deal in that Timberlake duet. Justin was only wearing the guitar as window dressing.

I've been listening to this piece of music today. I forgot I had the music and came across it while looking through my albums. I know one thing, I think it either hypnotized or stunned my noisy loud neighbors because I haven't heard their music all day.

Gymnopedie 1,2 & 3 - Erik Satie (1866-1925), Piano Solo.

Does anyone remember Morris Day and The Time from the Purple Rain movie? When I heard Bruno Mars' Uptown Funk my first thought was, "That's Jungle Love by The Time."

Nope. Close, but not quite...

'Uptown Funk!' Gains More Writers After Gap Band's Legal Claim

Here's a youtube video where they play bits of each song not only back to back, but also both songs at the same time:

Uptown Funk/Oops Upside Your Head

 

[Alixana]

Thanks to a post in the RIP Prince thread, I'm listening to his cover of "A Case of You" by Joni Mitchell. It's just beautiful.

We saw them in person at a local bar here. I completely forgot about that. How weird.

Yeah. Oops Upside Your Head is the oldest so that's probably the origin of both songs. Thank God people forget and new generations come along. It allows old pop songs to be recycled. Here's another one that's in the same vein: Walk The Dinosaur

Currently have been listening to new music....which for me means Somewhere to Elsewhere, a Kansas album released in 2000.
It's a strange album, all over the place stylistically. Love 6 of the tracks, and don't care at all for the other 4 which are not progressive at all, but more southern funk. It's quite jarring, but at least the title of the album makes sense!

 

[TOADS]

I never thought I would say this but I like Sia's version of "California Dreaming" better than the Mama's and the Papa's version which was out exactly 50 years ago....
