I’ve Got Some Records On

Well, not such a cheerful for today's Song Lyric Sunday theme. I always think of Grunge music as rather depressing and despairing. It has a certain legacy, one that I don't feel any connection to. I did a little research and came across a familiar track - Soundgarden's "Black Hole Son" and then I remembered …

A Blast Of Confusion Coupled With Delusion

The track I have chosen for today's Song Lyric Sunday theme of Bluegrass has caused me to form the opinion that Bluegrass seems to be a sound that knows no age. I have chosen "Tortured, Tangled Hearts" from the Dixie Chicks and they capture a famous sound that has been causing us to tap our …

Tequila!

We have a rather fun theme for today's Song Lyric Sunday. Jim has given us the theme Surf Rock. My mind jumps to The Beach Boys, but I wanted to pick something different.

Another genre for this week's Song Lyric Sunday that I don't think I have heard of before - "yacht rock". Another internet search to decipher this category of music.

To Change The Mood A Little I’ve Been Posing Down The Pub

I think by now we are all agreed that this tour of various music genres that Jim is taking us on in his Song Lyric Sunday posts is causing us a little confusion at times. I am finding that with some genres there is a wide variety of songs and bands tagged with more than …

Your Favourite Song Was Playing From The Far Side Of The Gym

This week's theme for Song-Lyric-Sunday is Country music - a genre I know a little more about. I lived in the US for a short time in my twenties (post grad placement) and was able to enjoy a lot of live country music performances. I was inclined to choose something very classic when I saw …
