❌Monthly Song Challenge: Archived🎵

[NeonSubtlety]

It was a leafy autumn camping trip — one of my first. Cute girls and all the guys wanted to show off. The drive to frozen head was filled with sing-along music. Windows down, buzzing with that 20 year-old freedom. This was one of those songs.

Day 1: A song that evokes a happy memory for you.

Before my daughter was a teen, she actually liked some of my crazy music. We would go on drives and play good music. She would make me mixes.

Then she became a teen, and she rebelled against my music! Now at 24, she’s back in the fold.

This is one from the old days…

Blur - Coffee and TV

Day 2: A song you remember your parents listening to

My dad loved country music. My mom maybe did. She liked R&B and rock too. But my parents had this on 45. I have it somewhere in the basement.

We loved this as kids - then horrified as teens!

My dad was born in. 1926, served in ww2 and was an ironworker. My mom was born in 1929 and passed earlier this year. God love them!

George Jones - White Lighting

Day 1: A song that evokes a happy memory for you
We were able to bring a CD into the delivery room... and chose this one. The track, "Wise One" (so very aptly titled) was playing when my son was born.

Beautiful song and more importantly a beautiful story!

Day 2: A song you remember your parents listening to

Mine were fun when younger, career and kid focused later but coffee was always on and in the background..

Patsy Cline, I chose this one randomly "Walkin' after Midnight"

Day 2: A song your parents listened to

My parents listened to the radio a lot, not really albums, so I don't know that I remember them putting on anything specific, only saying when they loved a song when it came on. We listened to a lot of oldies, and I chose this one because I remember it... and because I find it hilarious how children and adults will hear very different things in a song. Like if you're listening to Posty sing Circles with your five year old.

Day 2: A song you remember your parents listening to

Operator is the first song that comes to mind, but I've already posted that for an earlier day - so I'll go with my #2. I remember my dad singing along to this song every time it came on the radio.

Centerfield - John Fogerty

"Find Myself a Sunny Spot," The Crazy-8s

Day 2: A song you remember your parents listening to

Jim Croce's Life and Times, his last before his death, was my mother's favorite album, bar none. This is what Saturday afternoon sounded like.

"Dreamin' Again," Jim Croce

Day 2: A song you remember your parents listening to

Much like Unquiet, my dad introduced me to Jim Croce

Day 2: A song you remember your parents listening to

Well, yesterday’s post would’ve worked perfectly. When I was very young dad was away a lot and it was usually mom’s country that was playing. I remember this one being in a lot

Forever and Ever, Amen - Randy Travis

That is a sweet song.

We weren't a classic rock family but if this came on the radio, the volume was immediately increased by at least 25%.

Led Zeppelin - Kashmir

This song reminds me of the time I spent with my roommate in uni. We both loved it.

That they both listened to? Nah.. they had very different taste. John Denver and Celine Dion vs the Beatles and Rod Stewart.

Day 3: A song that would be your walk-up music when you're going up to bat

I assume this theme refers to cricket rather than any other batting sport....

10CC: Dreadlock holiday

"I say...I don't like cricket....I love it"
