And today's theme?

Songs about flowers or gardens


First thing that came to mind was this classic by Peter, Paul and Mary.





Here's John Denver singing about growing a garden.





But Elton John's garden was empty.






From a little ballet called The Nutcracker, here's "The Waltz of the Flowers"





How about some Jimmy Buffett?




And finally ...

  1. Interesting playlist. The first song was one of those songs sung around a campfire without ever having heard a professional band sing it. Although I'm a fan of John and Buffet, I had never heard those songs. Of course I know the one I posted and The Garden Party. Have a great week!

  4. Robin,

    Tchaikovsky "The Waltz of the Flowers" is a good song pick. It's such a happy sound making me feel good all over. Now, I'm ready for Christmas to get here but I know that'll happen soon enough so for now I'll enjoy the season we're in. Nice play set of songs for this week's theme, my dear. Have a lovely Memorial Day! xx

  6. A very nice selection. How could I have forgotten about Where Have All The Flowers Gone? I guess they are where my memory is! I had not heard this Jimmy Buffet song and it was so much fun (complete with Jimmy's Bob Marley T-Shirt). Waltz of the Flowers - another one I had forgotten. At least I remembered Elton John.

  7. Great tunes you've put together my friend. I haven't listened to Peter, Paul & Mary in so long. Great idea. I've never heard Elton's song empty garden. It's so pretty. Tchaikovsky - Waltz of the Flowers one of our players was waiting to hear this one and you made their dream come true. Great job. hehehe~ If I remember correctly there was a cartoon made with this songs actually having flowers dancing to the tune. So cute... dam I haven't thought of that in years. Sheesh I'm getting so old! YUK! Anyway great tunes here my friend and thanks for playing along with us. You rock!

  8. Thanks for the intro to some new tunes! I actually hadn't heard most of these, but seeing Scarlet Begonias reminded me that I should have included Grateful Dead's Sugar Magnolia to my list. Next time!
