We didn’t start the fire - fall out boy

 

[UnquietDreams]

I know I've used that song before, maybe a month or two ago. I'm upstairs, sick in bed, and my laptop with my beautiful spreadsheet is downstairs, so I don't know exactly when it was or for which prompt.

Sorry, you are sick, and I love your spreadsheet.

Day 8: A song that mentions or is about an historic event

I long for the day when events like this are only historical. I doubt I'll see it in my lifetime.

I was happier when I first heard this and thought it was just about hating Mondays.

Tear Me Down - Hedwig & The Angry Inch

 

[LustfulIntentions2]

Playing catch up but: Day 4, a country song:

Admittedly, 'modern' country doesn't do a whole hell of a lot for me. Probably because my grandfather, on his old AM radio, would keep it tuned to a steady stream of older time country, and so Cash, Jennings, Willie, etc, were what I learned growing up, even if it didn't end up being one of my main types of music.

Day 9: A song that mentions or is about a murder

"Roland searched the continent for the man who'd done him in
He found him in Mombassa in a barroom drinking gin
Roland aimed his Thompson gun - he didn't say a word
But he blew Van Owen's body from there to Johannesburg"

Ren - Violet's Tale

Always excited to share Ren - incomparable and theatrical. Less excited about the murder bit.

Sophie Ellis-Bextor - Murder On The Dancefloor

One of the most beautiful people on Earth. Like, not even thirsting, it's just an objective fact. Gah. And that voice... She did these little "live from my kitchen" shows on instagram during lockdown and it's insane how she can keep a perfect tune with a bunch of rugrats trying to climb into frame and trip her.

Ren - Violet's Tale

Think it was MLAS or Enby who introduced me to Ren but holy crap his verse is really straight from the heart. Such an incredible talent!
