Here we are again…as my 13-year-old son Cameron says ‘ Time just seems to go faster and faster the older you get doesn’t it?’ (yes, you read it right…he is 13!) and it flew by this week. Another 7 songs for another weekend. This 7 has some Desert Island Discs included…I could never survive if stranded without The Rollings Stones and I would find it really hard to pick just one of their songs. I picked Wild Horses because Darren had a bit too much vodka one night and sang it to me while he thought I was sleeping…bad voice, good memory! Wish You Were Here is my favourite Pink Floyd song, and makes me think of my Mom. Stevie Nicks is amazing and I love everything she’s ever done, but Edge of Seventeen is the very best! I could go on and on about all these songs and all the artists singing, writing and performing them; but then I might as well do a full post about them and this is neither the time nor the place…maybe I will one day, but for now I hope you enjoy them and have a fab-u-lous weekend!
Angus & Julie Stone – Yellow Brick Road You need to chill, this will wind you right down
Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers – Mary Jane’s Last Dance I love this man, his voice, and his guitar!
David Gilmour – Wish You Were Here for Mom x
Lucie Silvas – Forget me not Utterly breathtaking performance with the Metropole Orchestra
The Rolling Stones – Wild Horses One of my favourite bands with one of my favourite songs
Stevie Nicks – Edge of Seventeen Absolute brilliance!!
Liverpool Express – You Are My Love for Darren x
What are your Desert Island Discs? Drop me a line in the comment box, I’d love to know!
Kori – desert island discs – margarita first – discs second. Sting, Bob Marley, Barenaked Ladies?, Mumford & Sons, Alex Murdoch – just breathe song, John Hiatt – have a little faith in me, the song Shout (by Tears for Fears I think — a good song but a good beat), Peter Gabriel?, Prince possibly, my mind is fuzzy now…more artists tomorrow. Please keep doing the 7 songs for the weekend. I wish that tomorrow were the weekend and not Monday!!! Lots of Starbucks coffee for tomorrow.
