Boogie with Huey Lewis & The News #music

CAAC — Mon, 26 Mar 2018 04:00:30 +0000

Good morning, Kittens and Dawgs! It’s fabulous to see you! This week’s theme is “Places”, more precisely cities (ex. New York, New York) submitted by our lovely Spotlight Dancer, Ellen from 15andmeowing. Are you ready to groove to some mewsic? If you’re saying yeah, then I invite you to step on to the dance floor with XmasDolly(our Party Cooridnator), and my fellow co-hosts Stacy & Colette! Unfortunately Colette is on a a temporary leave from Blogosphere due health concerns. Please continue to keep her in prayer. Meanwhile, we have our fabulous friend, Michelle, returning as co-host.

^{NOTE: This is a weekly hop for} ^{mewsic enthusiasts ONLY regardless if you follow our weekly theme if you have tunes to share then we’re ready to dance with you. Otherwise, I ask that you do not link non-related posts below to boost traffic to your site. You’re welcome to leave your URL in comments with a brief description inviting me (and others) to check it out. Thank you!}

I will be late boogieing with y’all this week but I plan to hit the dance floor before the week ends. This is really a rough time for us with the passing of my darling, sweet father-in-law and we sure can use some prayers. Thanks and God bless!

I decided to come up with a playlist that features “Knoxville” song titles or lyrics. WOW, was I ever surprised to find the tunes! Don’t worry if you haven’t the time to listen to the entire thing, bookmark it and come back when you have time to spend on these 21 song picks.

“The Ballad of Thunder Road” Robert Mitchum
“I Don’t Care (So There)” – The Donnas
“When You Leave That Way You Can Never Go Back” Confederate Railroad
“The Wind Blew Cold” Hank Williams III
“listen Betty(I’m Singing Your Song)” Dave Dudley
“I’ve Been Everywhere” Johnny Cash
“Smoky Mountain Rain” Ronnie Milsap
“Sally Trash” Tammy Wynette
“Rock N Roll Jesus” Kid Rock
“If This Bus Could Talk” Kenny Chesney
“Truck Drivin’ Son-Of-A-Gun” Dave Dudley
“Stars in Alabama” Jamey Johnson
“What I Need To Do” Kenny Chesney
“Copperhead Road” Steve Earle
“Daddy’s Gone To Knoxville” Mark Knopfler
“I Wish I Could Be” The Statler Brothers
“Knoxville Girl” The Outlaws
“The Deeping Snow” Bobby Bare
“A Train Makes A Lonely Sound” The Black Crowes
“These Dreams of Losing You” Amazing Rhythm Aces
“1952 Vincent Black Lightning” Red Molly Band
“Christmas in Dixie” Kenny Chesney

I found these songs spotlighting “Knoxville” in the lyrics at this site if you’re interested. It comes to no surprise that home town country sensation, Kenny Chesney is on this list three times. Also, you can find a comprehensive list of songs about cities around the globe at Wikipedia.

It’s funny, I think it was Sandee who shared this same quote last Monday but I had it already in my post ready to share with you today but decided to leave it here for those who weren’t fortunate to catch it.

Visit McGuffy’s Reader for words of hope & inspiration with “SPARKS”.

Another month bites the dust. The April A to Z Challenge kicks off this Sunday. Did you check out my Theme Reveal? Anywho, while I’ll be busy with that all next month, you will find me on the dance floor each week ready to boogie with you! I’m sharing my April 1st Battle of the Bands a day early, so watch for it to pop up on your radar Saturday morning. I hope to see you then!

Hello, Kitten & Dawgs! I appreciate you stopping by on the weekend. This is a time generally I unplug from social media and the Internet but I will join the linky. I’m muddling around with DH, so please patiently accept this apology and I’ll catch up with you later.

For the letter “M” inspiration, I went with Mermaids.

I’m joining the second round of April Battle of the Bands (BoTB) and I invite you to play along. You can learn how this works and who participates on Stephen’s site. It’s really simple, one song and two artists covering the same title. It’s up to you to tell me who’s your favorite in comments. There’s no right or wrong vote, except if you don’t vote at all.

Contender #1

Contender #2

Who gets your vote Dowling or Reed?

Are you having a marvelous time with the A2Z Challenge? I’m merrily celebrating what I mustered up to do and to sense the merit of my work if only in my mind. What “M”-inspired art sketch should I try next? Mention it in comments and if I use it, then I’ll make it known in my post with a link back to you!

I’m swimming over to link up with other fellow AtoZers and you’re invited to come along. I’m gonna leave you with one more mermaid tune just for fun. Check back next week this time to see if your favorite artist gets named in this showdown and don’t forget to dance back for Monday Mewsic Moves Me (Theme: freebie week – anything goes) and my next edition of Art Sketching through the Alphabet!
