Hey Planet Peeps! The Polar Vortex sure hasn’t slowed time any because yet another week has rocketed by. Another weekend music thread is now upon us.
I thought this weekend we could choose songs based on opposites, like Love/Hate, Truth/Lies, Hot/Cold, Together/Alone, Sun/Moon…..etc. I’m sure you guys get the idea. So choose your favorites. Maybe pick the opposite theme to one another’s choices. This could be good fun. And don’t forget to smile while doing so. 😉
Jonny Lang – Lie To Me
James Taylor – Fire and Rain

Joni Mitchell – Shadows and Light
Don’t worry …
Maybe someone else will be happy.
Maybe there will be tears on someones pillow.
Guess I’m crazy to have thought the game would not be a run away.
A Man of Constant Sorrow

Happiness Runs – Donovan
Tend My Garden/Garden Gate – James Gang

I stayed one night in a real California Hotel. It was in Oceanside, halfway between LA and San Diego. A real 20 dollar a night flop house.
Nothing like the grand hotel in the song.
It’s a great song, none the less.
KT, this is one of my absolute favs. Best line: ” You can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave.” That’s me for sure. Working for an airline in SF, I was lucky to get to stay at some of the best. Heady days!
Fergie and KT, my son wrote a book with this song as a centerpiece.
” You can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave.” was the premise.
Wow Nirek! This is super interesting, but I guess we can’t ask what book because that would be too much personal info…..name etc.
Loved hearing about it though! And a very good morning to you!
Sounds like a lot of fun.
Grateful Dead – Fire On The Mountain
Albert Collins & Gary Moore – Cold Cold Feeling
KT, as Fergie1 said, It’s HOT HERE! So:
Hence the hippies moving to the forests;
VAN MORRISON – IN THE FOREST

Oh yes it is!
Oh, good tune, good movie.
The Band – The Last Waltz (Bob Dylan – Forever Young)

Not here! It’s 103F Downunder.
Ouch. It’s 35F here in central Ohio. Down to 29 tomorrow. I wish I could send you a bit of arctic breeze.
And I would send you some warm sunshine to melt that Arctic blast but I’d take it down a notch to about 75F.
103F here actually feels like 115F. I have a brother in Buffalo and lots of nieces and nephews there as well. And Cousins in Boston! All want me there next Christmas.
Having second thoughts about that!
Thanks for the fun tonight/afternoon KT. You have great themes. It’s not easy to come up with themes all the time. This may be my last for the day.
Thanks Fergie, I’m glad you like the music threads.
