#BlogosphereThinkTank April’s Topic: "Favorite Songs – and why?"

by Robyn Hawk on April 20, 2016

OK – this is truly difficult – to save you from list after list I think it might be easier to talk about my “Music Moods” and how they relate to my Playlists on Spotify:

1. In A Depeche Mode:  Almost anytime of day I could listen to ANYTHING from Depeche Mode definitely my favorite group – however within that broad category I think that the words in Somebody have something everyone can relate to.   Blasphemous Rumors works me through my more cynical moments.

Lyrics & Sample



2. A Little Mose In Your Ear:  Awesome Jazz – you have to be in the mood to listen to the words making this a PERFECT car karaoke playlist – my FAVE “Your Mind Is On Vacation”

Lyrics & Sample


3. For daily listening I tend to a mix of Blues, Jazz, Rock, with a little Rockabilly topper and my all time FAVs are the Blasters (I knew most of them from other groups) – a personal favorite is Flip Flop and Fly

Lyrics & Sample

4.  Working It Out:  Don’t we all have a favorite workout playlist?  Mine is pretty eclectic – BOB by Outkast – One Step Beyond by Madness – Jai Ho from Slumdog Millionaire – Boom Boom Pow by Black Eye Peas…this stuff isn’t really about the words – it’s more about the beat….

Lyrics & Sample


5.  Guitar: It Makes Me Happy – I write for a living but complete silence is disturbing to me (I never claimed to be sane), my go to is jazz guitar – calm but not sleep inducing.  Some of my FAVs – Joe Pass – Django Reinhardt – Les Paul – and I never tire of Wes Montgomery ‘s Misty!

Lyrics & Sample

OK – I really only wanted to do 5 – BUT….this one’s for the Girls…

6.  Angry Chick List – we all have those times when we need to let it out….Alanis Morrisette – PINK – Marianne Faithful – Miley Cyrus – come on….shout it out!   ….careful these can include some dicey lyrics.

Lyrics & Sample

*So what is this new “Blog-O-Sphere” thing?
Andes Kate formed a group of friends who blog  [titled the ” Blog-o-sphere think tank” Group.] ; “from all different areas of life, to do a ‘once a month’ ‘blog circle’, or ‘blog carnival’ type thing, if you will. Anyway, we get together once a month, and all write about the same topic, and hopefully we all post at the same time, on the 20th of each month.  I personally find it interesting to read everyone’s thoughts on an idea or topic. It’s fun, light, and gets your mind going. Everyone has a different ideas; so you might learn something, or open your eyes to new ideas . In any case, it’s fun!!!  I hope you’ll visit all the blogs and have a read!”
