Music Monday

-

 And I have the honor of being the honorary co-host this month.

Today’s theme?

Well, since Valentine’s Day is approaching, I thought we’d all enjoy love songs.

Today is also a special occasion. It’s Drew’s 64th birthday.  He and I have had a long and strange relationship, but I can’t imagine my life without him. 

Drew periodically reminds me that the Beatles arrived in NYC on his birthday, February 7, 1964, and he claims to remember watching them perform on The Ed Sullivan Show a few days later.

So the songs I have chosen are all from The Beatles  or from members of the group.

Let’s start with something from Paul. Love songs are not silly …

  

An early hit by the Fab Four


  

And another


  

Let’s hear from George now




  

This is a nice one from Ringo


  

John always had a great way to say it




You know I have to include this one.


  

And while this one isn’t technically a love song, I think you know why I had to include it.

    Robin,

    I loved your opening song straight through to the last one! It's really neat the Beatles made a song "When I'm Sixty Four" and today Drew celebrates that birthday. lol My how fast the yeas go by! Pass on well wishes to the birthday boy and here's to a very HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Thanks for filling in as this month's special co-hostess on the dance floor, my dear. Have a boogietastic week! ;)

    Awesome playlist. Like Drew, I remember very well when the British Invasion established a beach head in NYC and played on the Ed Sullivan. The only other person to get that kind of fan reaction on the show was Elvis. Have a wonderfully musical Monday.

    One of my cousins saw The Beatles at Shea Stadium. I am forever envious of her. I'm wishing Drew a Happy Birthday. Very nice playlist. A couple of these I thought about using today but I decided three Beatles songs were enough. "Silly Love Songs" is a classic; I think Paul McCartney was astonished at how popular it became. And George was my favorite Beatle back when we were "required" to pick one, but I forgot all about the George song you featured. Alana ramblinwitham.blogspot.com

It’s all coming back to me now

 So you should know that I am not a “shopper”.  I live in shopping mall heaven — I’m ten minutes from the Broadway Mall,  15 from Roosevelt Field and 25 from Whitman Shoppes — but I seldom go to the mall.  I prefer to shop on line.  And when I do venture into a store, I usually know what I want and buy it as quickly as possible.  I’m not one to browse through stores just to see what’s for sale. There’s a local chain,  Baked By Melissa , that specializes in mini cupcakes.  They’re primarily in Manhattan.  A few years ago Becca introduced me to their product - delicate little cakes, exquisitely decorated, very tasty.  I walk past their shop on 7th Avenue whenever we go to the theater. Well, last week I remembered that they used to have a second shop on 7th, right next to the original shop, but selling gluten-free versions of all their cupcakes. The gluten-free shop closed, but the company continues to make a gluten-free version of their product. So I thought that gluten-free cupcakes wou

DISboards nonsense

found a new blog today. Love it. http://secret-squirrel.webs.com/index.htm I've posted there under various names over the last 10 years or so. it went from a sweet little board that was Pete Werner's hobby to ....well, a real nightmare. that a board devoted to all things Disney can be such a nasty, racist, childish (not childlike) place.... loving the inside scoop, though. Did I ever tell you how "songbird" was banned from the DIS? I was a poster in good standing for 3-4 years. Even booked my trips through Dreams Unlimited, back when Pete was careful to distinguish between the disboards as a hobby and Dreams as his business. Pete and Webmaster Alex were struggling with server issues, the disboards would go down more often than they'd stay up. then Pete announced cosmetic changes to wdwinfo.com, which feeds into the disbaords forum. Like all other members of the forum, I was frustrated. so I was a bit sarcastic. I posted something to the effect of "would yo

Another “your choice” week. How about new music from icons of the 60’s and 70’s? Let’s start with Jimmy Buffett’s posthumous hit, “Bubbles Up”. The Rolling Stones released a new song in 2023, it’s called “Angry”. The surviving Beatles (with some  help from AI) released “Now and Then”. And then Billy Joel …    The AI effects in the video blew me away… A note about the AI effects … the Beatles used it to isolate John’s vocals on an old demo.  Billy Joel had a young man play the piano then superimposed his own face onto the image of the younger man.
