Day 30: song with a memorable bridge

Talking Body by Tove Lo

Often when Tove Lo performs this song live, the bridge of this song is the cue for a shared, carefree and body positive moment between Tove Lo and the audience

Congratulations to Curaçao on winning the 2026 World Cup!⚽🏆

(Assuming that Curaçao don't also boycott the tournament. If they do, then maybe they'll just award it to Donald Trump to go with his inaugural FIFA Peace Prize🙃 I wonder who will win the next FIFA Peace Prize?🤔😉)

Having posted Help! by The Beatles for a music challenge, here is a fun cover version of the song.

It was released in 1989 for charity by Bananarama and Lananeeneenoonoo.

Dawn French, Jennifer Saunders and Kathy Burke were Lananeeneenoonoo

Day 27: song that you only understand later in life

Help! by The Beatles

(Aside from the part about not needing help when I was younger because I wasn't self assured)

The older I get, the more I realise that we all need support

Day 25: song that led you to an artist's entire catalogue

Sobreviviré by Mónica Naranjo

Spanish song - which does contain a very naughty word btw😳 - that showcases Mónica Naranjo's extraordinary operatic vocal power. This led me to some good 90's Spanish pop.

Techemically, this is a warning. Sadly, more relevant now, than it was when released 23 years ago.

It's Blue Monday today, which is statistically the most depressing day of the year. Unless you're New Order, who have probably seen a spike in the royalties of their song Blue Monday. It is a cracking song🙂🎶

I hope everyone is doing well and not feeling depressed, but if not, please seek help as...

Went to the supermarket where I saw Easter items sitting on the shelves next to the remaining discounted Christmas stock😳😳

When is Easter?

I've no idea but having searched: April 5th is Easter Sunday

Talk about moving quickly on to the next thing! Have a Happy Easter🐣
