Tuesday 4. Songs

 


Tuesday 4 hosted by Annie!

Hi Friends and welcome to Toni Taddeo's Tuesday 4.    Are there many people who dislike music?  I doubt it, don't you?  Songs can have a lot of meaning and bring out a good helping of emotion whether happy, sad, nostalgic or funny.    Let's talk about it.

1.  Tell us 4 songs that define your life.   I know.. this one is hard but it's not written in stone!  Feel free to be serious or silly as you choose.  Maybe even some songs that you would like to describe your life!

1. The Impossible Dream

2.  IN A GADDA DA VIDA 

3.Everything by Burt Bacharac

4. How We Need the River which is shared below

2. A song or songs  that are special to you in some way.  A very special song to me is a worship song. How We Need the River!


I absolutely love this song! 

3.A song you and your sweetheart loved, or maybe your Mom's or Dad's favorite? When Hubs and I dated for 5 years. … 2of which we were separated by different colleges and 2 years  I didn’t see him at all as he was serving in Germany.  But when we were together, we had a special place looking over the airport, the beautiful lights on hot summer nights, we loved to sing along with our favorite songs. Our favorites were by Dennis Yost  and the Classics 4.  Sunny, Stormy, Spooky, and our favorite,  Traces.

4. A movie soundtrack you have enjoyed, or a theme to a TV program or commercial  you like/liked. Name as many as you like! If you have no favs, then how about ones you remember well?  Some songs just stick in your head! The first one to come to mind was Man of  La Mancha!  I was an avid Spanish student…Took it all through Junior and high school . I was fortunate to go to the Broadway play locally, but with real celebrities performing at the college I eventually attended. That sent me over the moon so of course I purchased the sound track and listened to it so many times.  I became quite a soloist singing the female songs along with the recording. I enjoyed it so much I saved my money and purchased the sound track to The Sound of Music.  I held my own singing along with Julie. So I got the cd and loved singing along in the car!

For anyone who needs a dose of Iron Butterfly:
