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.

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

    1. 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.

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

    1. 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.

  4. 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!! :)

    1. 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.

    2. Hahahahaha! They all quickly got out my way, River! ;)

  5. 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.

    1. 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.

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

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

  7. 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.

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