hi

i love hearing the music others have shared on here.

And while some songs soothe, other lift you up & help you face the day..

When i came on board this one was my anthem, "What ever it takes", resonated strongly and kept me on track.


I've had a good week with great news re my HBA1c scores, so this now fits my day.



Please do add when one song makes your day or fits the moment for you..
 
I don't know about fits my day but my brain keeps playing this one over and over


And this one

 
Nice idea for a thread, @jjraak! I'm more a classical music listener but one song that gets me every time is Bette Midler's The Rose. The power of music to soothe and uplift cannot be underestimated.

Nice pick @Sue192
this version ?

And classical is good.
I'm no snob and i know little about music except i like it..:)
On different days, we all march to a different rhythm..

Post what YOU like that fits YOUR day.
 
That "Insane in the Membrane" is a class but must confess to liking the dub version more


The Smiths, grew up with them and still like the music


Not so keen on Morrissey mind you :hilarious:
 
I go to band practice on Mondays - music for dancing, that is after the folk club and music session on Sunday another session once a month on a Wednesday, morris practice every Thursday, plus such customs as wassailing, Mayday, weekend folk festivals, weddings - listening to music can be good, but actually performing it takes things to a whole new level.
 
This DC Lee, it's a song to myself. as things have not been good these past 6 months regarding health and mind and............... I will see the day

 
@Robinredbreast be humming that on the way home for sure, tonight.

Strangely reminded me of an Earth , Wind & Fire song...which one I can't recall.

Liking the reasoning as well, strange how we can focus on a part of the song and make it personal.

Thanks for posting it up.
 
Well that bugged me enough to go hunt it down, and the closest I got was this...

But I didn't think it's the one I mean...aghh this us so gonna bug me, now .

Anyway...

 
Reading TOO many posts on here of patients being told
"oh, btw your diabetic, cut the sugars, there's a good chap..see you in 3 months "
type of flippancy...a case of our #metoo moment, sadly

And i found this was playing around in my head..( Coincidence..i think not ;))


added for the mood set i'm in today.

@jjraak America - Horse with no name = CHOON!

Great idea! I love finding out what others are listening to! Being married to a musician with an encyclopaedic knowledge of music and an ever expanding record collection, there is rarely a time when music isn't on in our house. Always an eclectic mix too. These are on heavy rotation at the moment :headphone::
