 And today’s theme?


Artists, bands, or songs that make you think of cold weather




Let’s start with something from Disney


In a very different direction let’s hear from Foreigner

How about Simon and Garfunkel?


And the Bangles?


And we end with Jimmy Buffett.


I get the feeling he wasn’t a fan of cold weather…

    Having to listen to I am a rock because I didn't know why you thought that....and then it opens to "A winter's day" and is all about snow. I only heard (in my memory) 'I am a rock, I am an island' which for us means sandy beaches and tropical weather....ha! Good pick. (Also Cathy, if you see this, I can't comment on your posts. There's not comment link. Sorry) #Mondaymusicmovesme

    As much of a Simon and Garfunkel fan that I am, I have to admit that I'm a lover of the Bangles' cover of Hazy Shade of Winter. I owned (dating myself) I Am A Rock as a 45 - it really spoke to my teenaged angst back in the day. Let It Go is one of the greats of Disney, and that's saying a lot given the many great songs Disney has had through the years. Nice set!

    Nice choices. I had 2 of the same. I love Frozen and the song, Let It Go. I always sing it to my mom and hubby when I want them to declutter.

    I think you're right about Jimmy Buffet. It seems most of his songs have a tropical or beach vibe. I'm not a fan of winter, either. When we win the lottery, I think I want to buy a condo in Miami so I can spend the cold months there. :) Have a boogietastic week, Robin!

    Excellent choices. We share "Cold as Ice" and I was expecting to see a couple of my picks on other sites today. Have a blessed week.

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.

Ultimate Blog Party!!!!

thanks to suzanne , I decided to join the party. I got into blogging last year because of Suzanne. I've known her on message boards for awhile, but I've gotten to know her much better since entering the blogosphere. I've also met several others whose blogs I am starting to love, and look forward to meeting even more bloggers now that I've joined the party. So I guess that means I have to introduce myself. I am a single mom from Long Island. My older daughter, Jen, is a college freshman, going to school in New England. Younger daughter, Becca, is a high school junior. I am also an attorney with an insurance company, with offices in Jersey City, NJ, a really "wonderful" commute. I sit on the board of trustees at my synagogue (which means I do a lot of volunteer work there!), and I am active in various fundraisers for the American Cancer Society, currently planning for this year's Relay for Life. I like ot take photos, so you'll see many of them in ...

Saturday 9

  Blame It on the Bossa Nova Welcome to Saturday: 9 . What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so-to-speak. We encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love to  answer the questions, however, and here is today's questions! Saturday 9: Blame It on the Bossa Nova (1963) Unfamiliar with this week's tune? Hear it  here . Funny you should mention Eydie.  She’s sort of a relative.  My late mother-in-law always said that she and Eydie were cousins.  Eydie was a Sephardic Jew, as was my mother-in-law, so I have no reason to doubt the connection,  so I guess you can say my kids are related to Eydie,   Eydie and Neil Sedaka were cousins, but I’m not sure if Neil was related to my moth...
