Weekly Music Challenge

Posted on May 29, 2019 by pensitivity101

Willow here has tagged me for this challenge, one that I’ve seen but never participated in!

Sorry, my title should be Weekly Song Challenge but I’ll lose the URL if I change it
(PC crashed halfway through preparing)
Time once again for Laura Venturini’s Weekly Song Challenge! Here, as always, are the rules:

Copy rules and add to your own post, pinging back to this post.
Post music videos for your answers to the musical questions.
Tag two people to participate!

Post a video of a song that makes you think of the true meaning of Memorial Day.

Being in the UK, we don’t have a Memorial Day as such, though our month for Remembrance is November.
I’ve chosen Elvis and a song that never fails to reduce me to tears.

Post a video of a song that has the word war in title or lyrics.
I’ve picked Two Tribes by Frankie Goes to Hollywood from 1983.

Post a video of a song that is part of a movie soundtrack that had something to do with war.

For this section I’ve picked Buffalo Springfield’s ‘Stop Children what’s that sound’ from the opening credits of Lord of War

Tagging two now, and I wonder if

Billy
and
Jade

would like to participate? No obligation.

As Fandango’s One Word Challenge today is also War, I am including his prompt here also.

About pensitivity101

I am a retired number cruncher with a vivid imagination and wacky sense of humour which extends to short stories and poetry. I love to cook and am a bit of a dog whisperer as I get on better with them than people sometimes! In November 2020, we lost our beloved Maggie who adopted us as a 7 week old pup in March 2005. We decided to have a photo put on canvas as we had for her predecessor Barney. We now have three pictures of our fur babies on the wall as we found a snapshot of Kizzy, my GSD when Hubby and I first met so had hers done too. On February 24th 2022 we were blessed to find Maya, a 13 week old GSD pup who has made her own place in our hearts. You can follow our training methods, photos and her growth in my blog posts. From 2014 to 2017 'Home' was a 41 foot narrow boat where we made strong friendships both on and off the water. We were close to nature enjoying swan and duck families for neighbours, and it was a fascinating chapter in our lives. We now reside in a small bungalow on the Lincolnshire coast where we have forged new friendships and interests.

    Though not an Elvis fan, ( puts up shield for protection) the American Trilogy is a great choice, a gut wrenching tear jerker. Two tribes fantastic ahead if it’s time and still relevant today. As for Stop Children What’s That Sound …pure genius. That showed your computer who’s boss! 😃💜
