30 Days Of Music - Week 4


A Song From Your Favourite Album...

Kate Bush Running Up That Hill
I have two favourite albums in the world
One is Fleetwood Mac Rumours which is a whole album of breakup emotions
and the other album is Hounds of Love by Kate Bush
Which is like two different albums in one! The first songs are all the singles from it
Then there is the group of songs she called The Ninth Wave which I think
can't be listened to unless you play them all together!
This is my favourite song from that album
it's the song I play the most from Kate and one I can actually try sing along to!

A Song That Is Better Live....

Fleetwood Mac I'm So Afraid
I picked the 1976 version of this song but I also love the 1997 version
The studio version is a good song but it's live that Lindsey Buckingham 
can let his awesome guitar skills loose!
The live version just takes this song to the next level
it's my hubby's favourite Feetwood Mac song
I have been lucky to hear it live five time and hubby twice

An Acoustic Song You Love....

Eric Clapton Layla
I also love the full on rock version of this song
but it was this version of Layla that made me want to listen
to more of Clapton. I love how he took a rock out song
and made it into a acoustic love letter

A Song That Reminds You Of Your Partner...

Huey Lewis The Power Of Love
Every time I hear this song it makes me smile
and think of when hubby and I were dating
Think we where only going out a few months
and after a few to many drinks
Paul sang every word of this song to me in a funny voice
Since that night this song to me has always been Paul's song
We even had it on our wedding band's play list!

A Song That Makes You Laugh....

The Fureys Frying Pan Song
From the first time I heard it this song always makes me laugh
with lyrics like
I couldn't find the lock, so I had to knock
and I prayed she'd let me in.
Then I heard a roar, when she opened the door
"Just where you think you have been!"
It's hard not to laugh! It's a funny pub song

A Song That Was In The Charts The Month Your Where Born....

Foreigner I Want To Know What Love Is
Most of the charts where Christmas songs as I was born on Christmas Eve
and the number 1 was Band Aid Do They Know It's Christmas
but this cheesy power ballad was also in the charts December 1984

A Song You Haven't Listen To In A While.... 

Sarah Brightman Figlio Perduto
Sarah Brightman is one of my favourite artists
since I first heard her when I was 13 in The Phantom of the Opera
I was hooked on her beautiful pure soprano voice I soon ran out and bought all her albums
I was lucky enough to see her once in concert for her La Luna tour when my parents bought me tickets. She puts on an amazing show and it was the La Luna album that was my favourite album from her. I haven't listened to it in so long and was glad I answered this question cause it spurred me to dig out the album so glad I did. Figlio Perduto is my favourite track on the album

A Song You Find Incredibly Beautiful....

Kate Bush This Woman's Work
This one of the most covered song by Kate Bush
it's also one of her most used songs in film and TV
I think this is one of the most beautiful songs she has ever written
It's one of those song for me that when I listen to it
I will be still singing it days and weeks later
The lyrics are beautiful and for me the rawness in Kate's voice adds to the emotion of the song
Plus like with all Kate's singles the music video is great
