Marc Anthony – Curious as a Cathy

A little Latin spice

Awww Mondays hosted by Sandee from Comedy Plus.

Howdy-hi, folks! Here it is the end of July. These hot summer days can drag so lets heat things up with the sizzling sound of Latin music on the Monday’s Mewsic Moves Me dance floor for your choice song picks week!

In my YouTube vid stash, I found a link “El Préstamo” by Maluma, born Juan Luis Londoño Arias. The Colombian singer/song writer is described as reggaeton, Latin trap, and pop. I won’t pretend to understand that but Wiki says reggaeton and Latin trap originated in Puerto Rico. If you know what this all means then maybe you can explain it to me. I built a playlist of the first 6 songs to grab my ears which didn’t resemble reggae in my opinion but then I found Medallin Remixes Pt. 2 album that he did with Madonna which has a reggae/Latin vibe. I hope you’ll take time to enjoy both playlists.

Maluma playlist: 1. El Préstamo 2. Felices los 4 3. Sin Contrato 4. Carnaval 5. Felices los 4 ft. Marc Anthony 6. Agua de Jamaica

Medellin Remixes Pt. 2 playlist: Nissim Madame X in the Sphinx with no intro, LA95 Dancefloor Legend X Remix, John Chritian & DJLW Remix, Sak Noel Remix, & LA95 Remix. Note: all of these tracks are prefixed with ‘Medellin’. Why is that?

This month’s honorary co-hostess is Robin from SongBirdsCrazyWorld

This is a mewsic linky party. Every other week we have a suggested mewsic theme (see side menu) to build your song set around and all participants share YouTube or Vimeo videos for our mewsic enthusiasts. Failure to meet this basic guideline puts your URL in danger of being removed or labeled – NO MUSIC.

Before I forget, I got a response from little Binky and Granny who reports all is well with them. CatLadyMac was concerned about our furriends because of flooding in their part of the world but Granny told me they live high on a mountain. The roads beneath them got flooded and they couldn’t drive but were far luckier than others. I know I was super relieved to know that they are well. I appreciate CatLadyMac for calling this to my attention.

That’s it for this time. I want to say thanks to Robin for being a dynamic honorary co-hostess this month. Up next, is my August 1st BoTB. I hope y’all will stop by to cast your vote! Next Monday, we’ll be dancing to songs about friendship or with Friends in the title on the Monday’s Music Moves Me dance floor and you’re invited to join the party. Have a boogietastic week! XX, Cathy

Kiss Me Cat

CAAC — Tue, 13 Apr 2021 10:00:00 +0000

Hello, my dears! We are mid-way through April. The old saying, Time flies when you’re having fun is very true with this challenge. According to Wiki, there aren’t any “K” Looney Tune characters. I thought it would be fun to showcase a particular episode where today’s letter would fit but I couldn’t find a list easily but then I then I thought about search with a keyword, “Kiss” and I found an image for Kiss Me Cat. I remember the huge over protective dog and adorable little kitten from Saturdays long ago. My illustration inspiration was found!

It wasn’t until the other day I figure out both the dog and Kiss Me Cat’s name. The dog’s name is Marc Anthony who in later years you youngsters might know better as a singer…what’s that they aren’t the same? Hmmm, okay if you say so…and then there’s the kitten, Pussyfoot, also referred to as Kitty and Cleo.

8-years before I was born Kiss Me Cat released in February 1953 but it was played on Saturday mornings during the cartoon hours in the late to early 70s. These old animations will never fall out of favor with me.

Digging around YouTube, I found a couple of other cartoons featuring the unlikely duo Feed the Kitty (1952), Feline Frame-up with Claude Cat (1954), and Cat Feud (1958).

Here’s a bit of History of Marc Anthony & Pussyfoot if you’re interested in knowing.

I hope you enjoyed today’s edition of my Looney Tunes A-Z Art Sketch series and I appreciate that you included me in your day. Don’t forget to say hello in comments and please leave your direct link for today’s contribution for others to find you easier. I’m heading over to the A2Z headquarters to see who’s joined the party now. I hope to see you again tomorrow for the next letter in the alphabet in my Looney Tunes Art Sketch series! XX Cathy
