Welcome to Monday’s Music Moves Me on Sundays! This week’s theme is inspired on these National Day celebrations, Dimples, Cow Appreciation, or Sugar Cookie Day.
For National Dimples Day, how about a song from the cutest dimples in Hollywood, Shirley Temple “On the Good Ship Lollipop”.
This is a bit of stretch but for Cow Appreciation Day, I thought of none other than the Cowsills, “The Rain The Park And Other Things”.
I couldn’t get into sugar cookies because that’s a Christmasy thing to me and I’m not ready to go there just yet, so instead I’m going to give you more cowbell with this playlist I created.
Remember music themes are only suggestions. I don’t care one way or another. The important thing is to share whatever music moves you. Now, it’s your turn!
Here’s the 411 on how things went in last week’s BOTB showdown. I used Postmodern Jukebox different singers and song titles in this round. I think I confused some of you because I wasn’t clear and for that I’m sorry. I wanted to know who liked “Flowers” or “Feel It Still” the best. You may already have a good idea how the this battle went but before I reveal things, let me share who gets my vote. I liked both songs but it ultimately it came down for me which female lead I felt was the best and that was Stella Katherine Cole singing “Flowers”. I loved how her vocals were kept soft a lot throughout her rendition and she sounded happy telling us how she could love herself better than the original song. My vote didn’t do anything to change the outcome and the battle tipped heavily in favor for “FEEL IT STILL” sung by Joey, Adanna, and Nina Ann.
Here’s how everyone voted.
Flowers — Lee, Ellen, Stephen, Me (4)
Feel It Still — Willow, Tom, Eugi, Brian, Ed, Debbie, Mary, John, Sandee, Mysticstrasse, Chris (11)
I also got one general like/vote for PMJ but not for a specific song. The voting turn out was excellent this time and I really appreciated everyone who took part. Your participation is what makes Battle of the Bands a blast. My October 1st showdown is postponed. We’ll be on vacation and I won’t be online until Oct 7th at the earliest.
I wasn’t expecting to have any time to spare but I found a couple of free minutes, so I was able to borrow the Friendly Fill-ins to add my responses in the blanks.
