Music Thread

Halloween is nearly here, a time for ghouls and inhuman creatures living off the blood of the living...but enough about Wall Street. This weekend's theme...

  Is the first time the worst time?  Is being original overrated?  These  songs might  just prove that theory.  Take a dive in the world...

This weekend's music thread is a nod to those songs. You know which ones. The ones you always sing, love deeply yet secretly. This weekend is your chance to let go and share some of your guilty pleasures.

This weekend's Music Thread goes out to the Occupy Wall Street protesters and movement. Songs about protest, fighting back, youth and change are all welcome in this tribute.

This weekend's music theme is a salute to the lovely ladies here and elsewhere, unforgettable songs about women and sung by women. It's Ladies Night (and day) at The Planet's Music thread, sorry guys, you have to pay the cover this time around!

This weekend, we invite you to reach back to songs you enjoyed when you were younger or songs from before you were born. Classical, jazz, blues, pop or rock, songs from the past that stay with you.

In his jobs speech this week, President Obama took on his adversaries and returned to the inspiring style that so many have been waiting for. This weekend's music thread about getting back to where you once belonged and fighting the good fight.

Keeping in mind our friends on the East Coast preparing for Hurricane Irene, this week's music theme is about weather, stormy, sunny and everything in between.

For those of us who don't say "Happy Birthday" on the anniversary of his passing away, this weekend's music thread is dedicated to celebrating the talent and impact of a man named Elvis Aaron Presley.

In honor of the GOP's new motto, "A mind is a terrible thing to waste...according to liberal elitists!", this weekend's music thread is about thinking and imagining. At least I think it is...if I'm remembering correctly.
