Day 11: A TV show theme song

White Horses - Jacky Lee
I can't remember the show, just the song lodged in my brain that plays, oddly, whenever i look at waves on a rough sea.
I also remember the Trashcan Sinatras (UK band) taking to the stage in London to this song.

Apropos of nothing, I love The Trashcan Sinatras. They were a very close second for Saturday's prompt.

This song strikes me as the type, for me at least, that the first time I hear it I’m like “yeah I kinda like this” and by the 10th episode I’m completely jamming to it

my arc.

Love how songs reach people in such individual ways. That verse you quoted is actually the one that is least tied to the memory and feeling of that song, for me. But it just goes to show that rarely are we hearing the same song when we listen.
Glad you found some new music!

Well, that's the joy of it. We come to a common spot, but each with a messy mix of history and emotions. There is commonality in it, with any art, but as each of us is a collage of our lives, the same words can hit in such different ways.

I love the totality of the song (quoting all of it seemed excessive, even for the wordy guy), but that small section hit the "sweet and sad and painful" part well. This song sang to me for that mix.

Welcome to episode 645 of "will this be region locked?"
Neil Hannon was a young upstart when he plucked this outta the air for what would become one of the best sitcoms ever..

Songs of Love

Day 11: A tv show theme song

So I guess it was Bear McCreary's idea to rock out in the opening credits for a show about Catherine de' Medici and it absolutely works for me. I'm about as far from a royalist as possible but I do love a show about a badass queen from hundreds of years ago and I love a female vocalist scream singing It's an unexpected joy for me to see the two combined.

The Serpent Queen - Bear McCreary ft. Esjay Jones

I think you’re the ONLY one who found this unexpected.

Day 11: A TV show theme song

"Females are strong as hell!"

Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt - written by Jeff Richmond and produced by The Gregory Brothers

Such an underrated show too. Carol Kane is amazing and not leaps and bounds ahead of everyone else on that show.

Day 10: A song that’s tied to a time and place

Not sure if I'm interpreting this correctly but here goes..
This song takes me back to playing guitar with my cousin. He was much more skilled than I and he played lead, I learned a lot about music from him and I cherish the memory.
Enter Sandman - Metallica

Day 11: A tv show theme song

most of mine were taken already...excellent choices everyone...but i'll take this theme song from one of my favorite feel good shows over something even more iconic but ultimately skippable (like the game of thrones these song)

Then I must need to catch up on French history I'm not super into it but I usually skip to the good stuff anyway. Vive la révolution!

Day 11: A TV show theme song

Criminals - Meghan Trainor

It’s the theme for a new Netflix show and makes me want to get up and dance every time. I’ll have to invite @aussiegeekygal over to see if it meets her dance standards too

Day 12: A TV show theme song

I used this in the daily challenge almost three months ago as a song that "stopped you in your tracks," so please let me use it again in the spirit of participation. Thank you, Lit. I do love this song...

I don't remember how it happened, but this song became the "theme song" for my high school JV football team. We'd sing it during our runs, on bus rides, at midfield, in a large huddle after we won... And the lyrics listed always touched my heart -- then and now. It was a beautiful dream and so many of us sang it with conviction and a wish that we could, possibly one day, achieve such a thing together.

"We had a dream we'd go travelin' together
And spread a little lovin' if we'll keep movin' on"

Day 12: A TV show theme song

I wrote a lot, but this probably summarize sit all up. Some of the worst shit I’ve ever seen with some of the best people.

And I wouldn’t trade it for anything.

Welcome home brothers and sisters, esp Geo, Trev and McLoud. B 2/12 Cav

Catch-22.

Day 11: A tv show theme song
It's Remembrance Day in Canada so I think it appropriate to share the theme song from M.A.S.H. It is one of my favourite series despite having been only a year old when it ended.

Was gonna pick this. Great choice.

Day 9: A song that mentions stars

I had a lost weekend. I will try to catch up but the next prompt may hinder that. I have a shit ton of your songs to listen to but I will get there.

I can't believe @PassionatePanther left this one for me.

Mister Roger’s Neighborhood - Won’t You Be My Neighbor

I love Mr. Rogers, both as a person and along with his Neighborhood. It was honestly down to this and Buffy, and I figured I would be the only one to pick Buffy. But I was getting a bit worried as the night went on. Contemplated using my Extra Song pass...

Day 12: A song that is the only song you know by that artist

Honestly, what more should I know? Really. You can’t top this.

I get knocked down, but I get up again.
