Tomorrow is Father's Day here in the U.S. so we're celebrating dads...or we might get sent to our rooms. For fathers here and remembered, the theme of this weekend's music thread is about dads who were and are good and caring men, songs with men's names in them and songs about kids and family. Happy Father's Day!
This weekend, we're inviting our members to share a song or more from their favorite bands or singers, artists whose songs have really spoken for you or to you or comforted you when you've most needed it.
With graduations going on now, this weekend's music thread is dedicated to grads, songs about school, growing up, moving on and songs offering wisdom about life.
This weekend, we remember our fallen heroes with songs about them, war and peace (including protest songs) and songs about America.
Our pets kept us sane and comforted during what was a very difficult time of isolation.. So this weekend's music thread is for songs about animals, from apes to zebras, share the songs you love about the animals you love.
People are flying on on planes more, socializing and once again, going to the movies. So to celebrate what we hope is getting a bit on top of COVID and getting back a bit more to normal, this weekend's music thread is about movie music. Share your favorite songs from movies, are the titles of movies or are about movies.
Tomorrow is Mother's Day and despite all the differences Americans have, one thing they have in common is that they all have mothers (though some may accuse motherhood as being a socialist hoax). So this weekend's music thread is for songs about mothers, women, children, families and love.
It's May 1st, May Day, so this weekend's music thread is dedicated to those who do and have worked, songs about working, jobs, and getting something done is what's working in this weekend's music thread.
A friend sent me a still photo of my first appearance on Television in 1958. It was St. Patrick's Day, March 17. My dad, Noah Purcell, was the subject of 'This Is Your Life' on the BBC.
This weekend's music thread is giving the green light for songs about cars, hitting the road, going places and your favorite songs to listen to when you're cruising.
