30 Days of Music - Week 1

Lovely Emily over at Family Four Fun

done these fab music posts last month

and I had every intention of linking in and joining these posts

but illness and sickness filled our little house last month

and I never go round to doing it so I thought

for the month of March giving it a go

So here is my 30 Days of Music

A Song From My Childhood.....

Kylie Minogue I Should Be So Lucky

Wow I remember rewinding this song so much that I broke the cassette tape!

I was that seven year old with blonde pigtails who adored Kylie Minogue

dancing around my parents kitchen to this song!

I also have a strong memory of a hot summer's day with the paddling pool out and

my Mam bringing out the old battery cassette player and playing this song

while we ate ice creams!

A Song You Heard Again For The First Time In Years.....

Shakespeare's Sister Stay

I heard this in the car this morning for the first time in ages

 and can't get it out of my head

This another one that I sang into my hair brush and danced around the house to!

Plus loved the French & Saunders sketch!

A Song That You & Your Sibling Listened To....

Bob Marley Three Little Birds

My brother loved Bob Marley so we listened to him a lot growing up

Three Little Birds was one of his favourites and after he died I heard it everywhere

I would put the radio on and it was on, go into shops and it would come on

It was in films and TV shows. I literally would hear it everywhere

and I like to think it was my brother's message to me

A Song That Reminds You Of Your Parents....

Kenny Rogers & Dolly Parton Islands In The Stream

This is my parents party piece! They sing together at every party

and even at my wedding!

 It's actually the only song that my Dad can remember

all the words to!!

A Song That Makes You Happy.....

Fleetwood Mac Gypsy 

My favourite band ever! It's also my Dad's favourite Fleetwood Mac song

This song makes me happy when it plays I can't help but sing and dance along

I have heard it sung live twice and it's even more beautiful live

It's also my favourite Fleetwood Mac music video it's a work of art

I love this song so much that my next tattoo will be lyrics from this song

A Song That Makes You Sad.....

Tracy Chapman The Promise

The song that played at my brother's funeral

I haven't listened to it in such a long time

It's such a beautiful song with a beautiful message

But's it makes my heart ache

A Song That's Just "Your Song"......

Fleetwood Mac Rhiannon

This is MY song! This is the song that made me a Fleetwood Mac fan

 Ask my hubby what's Lisa's song 

and he would immediately say Rhiannon

It has been my song since I first heard it when I was 16

I have heard it live four times and it's amazing live

I must play this song about 100 times a week, 

it goes on if I'm happy, sad, or just need something to listen to

I love the studio version but this is my all time favourite

The crazy wild bit from Stevie at the end is also very "me"
