Musical Monday # 169


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: The Mike Curb Congregation

Burning Bridges, the theme song from the movie Kelly's Heroes, with Telly Savalas (Kojak) and Clint Eastwood.

    Catchy. I must admit, I never saw Kelly's heroes, so this was new to me.

      Sharon Qualls; It's one of my favourite movies with a star studded cast. Clint Eastwood, Telly Savalas, Donald Sutherland...and the song is good too.

      fishducky; look it up and watch it on a night when you have nothing else to do.

    Not a song or a movie I know. Snappy tune though, and surprisingly upbeat considering his losses...

      Elephant's Child; it's an old movie, with a young Clint Eastwood and young Donald Sutherland. The song is upbeat in spite of him having "lost everything", perhaps he has come to terms with it being his own fault.

    A stirring start to our week. Good movie and good song...now I'll be marching along the aisles of the supermarket when I'm there shortly. I have a feeling this track will be on my mind all day! :)

    Go forth...the week awaits!! :)

      Lee; it's a good song for marching, just try not to mow down too many people as you go. Rather poor choice of words now that I think about it, but you know what I mean.

    It sounds familiar, but I never saw the movie. My mom would have liked it, I'm sure. She was a big fan of the TV shows Combat, and Hogan's Heroes.

      Val; possibly you've heard the song on radio? If your mum liked Combat (my dad's favourite) and Hogan's Heroes, she'd have liked this too.

    I am surprised that I wasn't familiar with it either.

      Jimmy; I'm surprised that so many people aren't familiar with it. Surely it wasn't only played in Australia?

    Still on dial up speed on my internet. Can't load the video but I know it is a good one. Will try to check back on the 14th when I have my full broadband back.

    Granny Annie; I remember my dial up days and I feel your frustration :(

Words for Wednesday

Image
 The original Words for Wednesday was begun by Delores and eventually taken over by a moveable feast of participants when Delores had computer troubles. Sadly, Delores has now closed her blog forever due to other problems. The aim of the words is to encourage us to write. A story, a poem, whatever comes to mind. If you are posting an entry on your own blog, please let us know so we can come along to read it and add a few encouraging words. This month the words/prompts are supplied by River (that's me) and can be found here This week's words/prompts are:  1. on the run 2. belong 3. street 4. breakfast 5. tent and this image: taken by "Genius" and allowed by Val . Also Charlotte's colour of the month which is Orient Red for September.

Sunday Selections # 691

Image
 Long ago, Kim of Frog ponds Rock, (who no longer blogs), dreamed up a meme called Sunday Selections.  A place where those who were willing could put up photos they wanted to share, new, old, good, bad or indifferent, any photos you please.  Nothing rude or vulgar though. And we don't mind at all if other bloggers care to join us. The meme is now continued by Elephant's Child ( https://myjustsostory.blogspot.com.au) and I join in as do a few others. Andrew (https://fromthehighrise.blogspot.com.au) is one.   Messymimi (https://messymimismeanderings.blogspot.com) is another. Drop in to their blogs and have a look,  Wisewebwoman has also been joining us occasionally. Lola snoozed on a cushion so covered with cat hair I'm surprised the stripes are still visible while I heated up leftover home made pizza for dinner a fold-out bunch of flowers card from "no-one" for Mother's Day, no watering needed and they will never die.
