Sunday Stealing: Music

 

 Stolen from PinInterest (Original here)

Name a song that ...

🎼 1. You enjoy, in another language.  "Eres Tu" by Mocedades

"Eres Tu" means "You Are". Below are the Lyrics in English: 

Like a promise, you are, you are...

like a summer morning.

Like a smile, you are, you are [to me]

That's how, that's how, you are [that's how I perceive you]

 

You are like my hope, you are, you are... [to me]

like a fresh rain in my hands.

Like a strong breeze, you are, you are [to me]

That's how, that's how, you are [that's how I perceive you]

 

You are the water of my fountain

You are the warmth in my home

You are ...

You are something like, ohhhh

Like the fire in my fireplace (something like the fire from my fireplace)

You are ...

(You are something like, ohhhh)

The wheat in my bread

My love, you are something like that

 

Like my poem, you are, you are [to me]

Like a guitar in the night,

you are all my horizon, you are [to me]

That's how, that's how, you are [that's how I perceive you]

 

You are the source of my water

You are the warmth in my home

You are (You are something like, ohhhh)

Like the fire in my fireplace (something like the fire from my fireplace)

You are (You are something like, ohhhh)

The wheat of my bread (my love, you are something like that).

You are...

🎼 2. Recently introduced you to a new singer.  There is no modern music I care for, that I can think of. They were playing some kind of crap music in Ace Hardware the other day. I had to leave it was so awful. 

🎼 3. You listen to to energize.  Symphony No. 9 (Beethoven) or New World Symphony (Dvorak)

🎼 4. Is your favorite song from a musical.  "On The Street Where You Live" from My Fair Lady. 

🎼 5. Reminds you of an old love.  "(They Long To Be) Close To You" by Karen Carpenter

🎼 6. Make you think of one of your children.  Never been blessed in that respect. 😊

🎼 7. Makes you smile when you hear it.  "Moon River". It reminds me of when I tried to learn the guitar because it was one of the lessons I was given to learn. I didn't do well so gave up. My talents followed other paths. 

🎼 8. You love but is quite unknown.  "I Only Have Eyes For You" by Art Garfunkel. For me, his version is the absolute best. His voice is as sweet as honey.  

🎼 9. That annoys you.  "The Lion Sleeps Tonight". Ugh. Can not stand that song.  😱

🎼 10. That your parents used to listen to.  My step-mom, Myra, liked listening to Polka, Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass, Roy Clark (the best guitar player ever), those types of genre. I 'inherited' my love for good tunes from her. Myra's favorite song was "Last Dance" by Floyd Cramer. Every time I hear it now I tear up. I do miss her terribly. She's the only Mother I remember.  💌

🎼 11. From your early years of childhood. 💓 (see #7 and #10)

🎼 12. That has a color in the title.  "Blue Clear Sky" by George Strait. 

🎼 13. That needs to be played loud.  "Drivin' My Life Away" by Eddie Rabbitt (1980). I still like his tunes. It's a shame he passed away so young. 

🎼 14. That is perfect for a road trip.  That depends on what mood I'm in: might be soft rock, or Classical, or Old Hymns or 70s-80s Country or Rock-A-Billy. If I'm with my husband there's no music because we talk. 

🎼 15. That reminds you of yourself.  "Sister Golden Hair" by America also "Running On Empty" by Jackson Browne. We're about the same age. Gotta go now because I wanna hop on my motorbike and pop some rooster tails down our old dirt road ... bet I still can.  😄🏍️

Thanks for stopping by. I hope your Sunday is lovely. 💓
