Musical Monday #69
Musical Monday
I was introduced to
Musical Monday by Delores who copied the meme from another site.
I think it’s a fun way
to show off some of the music we like and brighten up our Mondays at the same
time.
I’ll be finding my clips
on you tube, so will simply credit that site since there are often so many
versions of everything and I wouldn’t want to accidentally credit the wrong
artist.
Today’s clip is: Rod Stewart
Motown Song
Put this on your I-Pod, plug in the earphones and get walking.
Swing along with me. Watch out for uneven paving!
and I couldn't find the lyrics, sorry.

I surprise myself with all the music I don't remember. Rod Stewart, Maggie May. I'm tapped out.
ReplyDeleteHi human, River,
ReplyDeleteMy human, Gary, remembers that Rod Stewart song. Well nice, but not one of his better known songs, that's fur sure.
Pawsitive wishes and doggy kisses,
Penny xx
Goodness he has been around for a long time. A real stayer. This is not one I remember.
ReplyDeleteI don't remember it, but the music is known to me maybe with a different singer, not sure.
ReplyDeleteMerle..........
Ahhh...Rod! How could one not like him! This is another one of his many good songs...great to swing along to. I've always liked Rod...I love his cheekiness, too. He's never taken himself too seriously. Thanks for kicking the week off to a happy start! :)
ReplyDeleteHere are the lyrics, River.....
Bring over some of your old Motown records
We'll put the speakers in the window and we'll go
On the roof and listen to the Miracles
Echo to the alley down below
"Let's dance together just for the night
Let's don't worry about the future or nothin' else
'Cause just like the music's sayin' you gotta take chances
Go ahead just do it and trust yourself
There's a soul in the city
Watching over us tonight
There's a soul in the city
Saying everything's gonna be all right
So bring over some of your old Motown records
We'll put the speakers in the window and we'll go
On the roof and listen to the Miracles
Echo to the alley down below
They wish us luck
But they think we're just dreaming
Let's prove them wrong baby
'Cause you know what luck is
Luck is believing you're lucky
That's all and showing just a little bit of faith
There's a soul in the city
Watching over us I swear
There's a soul in the city
There's a whole world waiting out there
Listen
I got plans for us
Playing like a skip on a record
Through my head all night long
But when we walk that darkened stairway
And step out on the roof
I know what we're feeling can't be wrong
Bring over some of your old Motown records
We'll put the speakers in the window and we'll go
On the roof and listen to the Miracles
Echo to the alley down below
Bring over some of your old Motown records
We'll put the speakers in the window and we'll go
On the roof and listen to the Miracles
Echo to the alley down below
Let the Temptations sing it one time
Bring over some of you old Motown records
We'll put the speakers in the window and we'll go
On the roof and listen to the Miracles
Echo to the alley down below
Bring over some of you old Motown records
We'll put the speakers in the window and we'll go
On the roof and listen to the Miracles
Echo to the alley down below
Bring over some of you old Motown records
We'll put the speakers in the window and we'll go
On the roof and listen to the Miracles
Echo to the alley down below"
Joanne; I love Maggie May! Along with about a dozen other songs.
ReplyDeletePenny; nice to see you here, say hello to Gary. I imagine Rod's best known songs were Maggie May and You're in my Heart.
Elephant's Child; a stayer alright, like Mick Jagger. This one is a good bit later than his Maggie May era.
Merle; it's been done by a few different singers over time.
Lee; knew I could count on you. I already knew the lyrics, I wanted to put the you tube version under the song so people could sing along if they wanted.
Love the koala story you emailed me, there's a boy who loves his mummy.
I do get carried away, River...you may have noticed! ;)
DeleteI thought you'd enjoy that koala story. :)
A classic. Don't make 'em like that anymore.
ReplyDeleteSome of his songs I like.
ReplyDeleteHi River! I LOVE that song! Hadn't heard it or thought of it in quite a long time. I HAD to stop here for your Musical Monday, since I just posted about music on my most recent post! Please stop by if you have time. Thanks for the great music!
ReplyDeleteVicki; they surely don't.
ReplyDeletewhiteangel; I like about a dozen or so of the older songs. I don't know if he has done anything new, I don't keep up.
Becky; I'll pop over, haven't been there in a long while.
