Welcome to Monday’s Music Moves Me! This week’s theme is whatever music moves you.  I’m carrying music over to the dance floor from last Monday’s prompt submitted by John with Italian Rock Bands Continue Continuano le band rock italiane!  Previously, I shared a couple of songs by 1990 Eurovision winner, Toto Cutugno.  I really enjoyed this Italian pop singer.  Curious to listen to more, I found the below “L’Italiano” playlist on the singer’s YT channel.  

It seems the more and more I listed to Toto his music felt familiar, perhaps my ear just connected with his voice in away that gave me this sense.

My next artist feature I recognized the name. I’m 99% sure I’ve heard some of their music since I started blogging. Vanilla Sky is an Italian pop punk band from the early millennium. Generally punk isn’t a genre I gravitate to and generally veer away from artists/bands who fall into this category. Of course you can’t always judge a band by its genre. I learned many years after the fact that one of my all-time favorite 80s bands, Blondie, claims to be a punk rock band. Clicking on Vanilla Sky’s Another Lie: Like Home album and I was like “Okay, not bad! Not bad at all.” Hit play to begin now!

All of this Italian music puts me in the mood for pizza. I guess I’ll need to turn my kitchen into Mama Mimi’s pizzeria. What should I make, a supreme or hamburger cheeseburger pizza?

_{This is a music linky party.  Your co-hostess are Stacy, Alana, and Me.   Every other week we have a suggested music theme (see weekly prompts here) to build your song set around and all participants share YouTube or Vimeo videos for our music enthusiasts.  Failure to meet this basic guideline puts your URL in danger of being removed or labeled – NO MUSIC.}

Unless volunteers sign up to co-host in the new year, I thought we’d try for-going this formality but let’s keep a theme going using y’alls suggestions.  That being said, put your thinking caps on and send in your music prompts right away.  I’ll be sure to credit every person who throws something this way. This is CAAC signing off,  have a boogietastic week! XX, Cathy

Last week, I mentioned in the coming new year the 4M crew is doing away with the honorary co-host spot, unless someone volunteers. It’s a big commitment.  Instead, I wanted to try getting y’all to come up with some themes.  January’s themes are up and the rest of the year is available.  Put on your thinking cap on and send in suggestions to me by email.  I will give credit to each person who submits a request.  The best part is you don’t have to co-host and theme helps to fuel the fun.   

I’ll be back mid-week with a new set of photos from our Maine vacation.  I hope you’ll stop by for my fun memories.  This is CAAC signing off,  have a boogietastic week! XX, CathySave
