Catching up on these...

Real update to come later on today I think. But for now, here are the Music Memoirs memes. One I missed due to vacation, from Friday.

In honor of the Space Shuttle's successful landing this week...

Top Five "Space" Songs (interpret as you like..)



1. Space Oddity - David Bowie.
"Life on Mars?" as well... that whole Ziggy Stardust period really. I know, I know, predictable choice. But there it is.

2. Eight Miles High - The Byrds.

3. Aquarius (Let The Sun Shine In) - From "Hair" (also The Fifth Dimension).

And the next two I just *love*:

4. Rocket Man by Elton John.

Mars ain’t the kind of place to raise your kids
In fact it’s cold as hell
And there’s no one there to raise them if you did
And all this science I don’t understand
It’s just my job five days a week
A rocket man, a rocket man.

5. 2000 Light Years From Home - The Rolling Stones.

"Sun turning round with graceful motion
We're setting off with soft explosion
Bound for a star with fiery oceans
It's so very lonely
You're a hundred light years from home"

Welcome home, Discovery!

And today's Take Me Back Tuesday is posted there...

It's as easy as ABC this week folks.

Choose a letter of the alphabet.

My randomly chosen letter: A

1. Name three songs that begin with that letter of the alphabet.

After Forever - Black Sabbath
Achilles Last Stand - Led Zeppelin
As Tears Go By - Rolling Stones

2. Name three artists that begin with the next letter of the alphabet.

Black Sabbath
Bruce Springsteen
Bob Dylan



3. Name three albums that begin with the letter that follows the second letter.

Coda - Led Zeppelin
Cross Purposes - Black Sabbath (a mid nineties non Ozzy release)
Caribou - Elton John

And... it's all about the Shea Stadium anniversary this week, Beatles fans!! Ah... I'm listening to "I'm Down" on Sirius Classic Vinyl right now! ♥ John during that number. Love him dear.

Just because I couldn't let this one pass me by...

I just had to acknowldedge this event.

Yesterday marked the 40th anniversary of this, the single greatest, craziest, most incredible live performance of the Beatles' life as a touring band!

I might put my DVD in today and watch. Also, fans, don't forget that TVGuide has four different, cute, Shea concert covers this week! I randomly got Ringo in the mail. Do they know me or what?
