Feelgood Friday 2 - Fantasy Jukebox

Hey there!

I decided to do another Feelgood Friday post!  Actually....  I've decided to do quite a few more.  Not every Friday, perhaps once a month or so.  After this Friday I'm going to try to do themed ones, rock, rap, girl power... and so on.  They'll probably be a bit more organised than this one haha.

This came about because I was listening to my music, and a song came on, and I started bopping away merrily, and tweeted "why on earth didn't I put this into Feelgood Friday?"  and from that moment I knew another one was in the making.  It was this song:

Awesome, right? I hope you were dancing!  U Got The Look by Prince and Sheena Easton.  I remember it was a big moment for Sheena Easton, going all cool an' that.

I couldn't find a YouTube with the actual music video on, but it HAD to be this version.  Also, I couldn't suss out how to 'add this video' in the blogger usual insert menu (it wouldn't show up), so I actually worked out how to add it in HTML!  I'm learning....  although I couldn't work out how to centre it.  One step at a time.

Then, last night I was listening to my music again, and this came on.  I'd forgotten how much I liked it:
The L to the I to the B to the E to the R to the T Y.  Too cool for school.  And yep, I'd left school by then.

Now another one:
Obsession by Animotion.  I had the hots for this guy so bad.... I still think he's pretty hot actually.....  I might Google him..... OMG, he might be on Twitter!

And now - LETS GO ON HOLIDAY
BAM-BO-LEEAOOOO !!  This reminds me of my holiday in Portugal many years ago.

I'm bopping about!

Lets go even wilder:
TIIIIIINNNNN ROOF! Rusty (rusty)...  me and my BFF have sung (sang?) to this many, many times, it's one of our faves, along with Rock Lobster and the Time Warp haha

And so, I'm coming to the bottom of my bottle of wine.... oh, ok, time for one more:
How could I not?! A ground breaker in its time, and a kick-ass beat.  Just too awesome.  I remember being allowed to stay up late waiting for it to premiere, and being totally blown away.  I'm not sure those magical music moments happen any more.

The other two post in this series can be found (HERE) and (HERE) or just click the "Lifestyle" tab at the top of the page.

And there we have it.  Feelgood Friday Mk2.  I hope you've enjoyed them as much as I have! 

Until next time...

Feelgood Friday: Fantasy Jukebox

Hi there everyone,
 
I know it's not Friday, OK?  I started writing this post last night, and I liked the title so much I decided to keep it.  Anyway, you're not my mum!  Unless you are of course.  Haha! 
 
I hope you're having a great Saturday.  Anything good planned?  I managed to get a couple of big tasks finished at work this week, so am enjoying the (relative) lack of pressure.  It won't last long!  Plus I MUST get my 100 follower posts written, they're starting to play on my mind now (so close!), and that's a shame because I want to enjoy writing them.
 
Other half's been absent for most of this week, upstairs playing on Skyrim.  I should make the most of it, because once Bioshock 3 comes out on Xbox (which I think is the end of this month) I won't see any TV again for weeks.  I was so happy when he got fed up of Call of Duty I can't even tell you, although I enjoyed watching him play Assassins Creed, in no small way because I fancied Ezio.  Pixel eye candy anyone?

Anyway, lets get on with the post.  This is one I've had a great deal of fun planning.  It was totally stolen from inspired by THIS ONE by Joanna at The Treasure Chestt which made me feel so jolly I wanted to share my own feel good tunes with you.  The idea is to share the songs which make you feel good, and cheer everyone else up too.  What a brilliant idea. 
I'll start with one of the ultimate feel good tunes.  As an 80's teenager, I was bopping along to this with the best (and worst) of them.  I couldn't find a YouTube clip that had the video, but I found the music:
 Now, I am a bit of a country girl, and I agonised over which country song to put in this post, in the end I had many reasons to include this one.  Lady Antebellums' I Run To You.  So jolly...
Now for my totally un-trendy side to show.  My mum's a big Cliff Richard fan, and I 'caught' it off her.  So untrendy that it's actually trendy?  You decide:
And back to my teens now.  My friend and I used to know a pub where we could get served, and we thought we owned the place.  There was a jukebox in there, and we loved to put our favourite music on, so everyone else had to listen to it too.  They must have groaned every time we came through the door, because I was forever putting Crystal Gayle on HAHA.  However, when I wanted to feel happy, this was the one I used to pick, Zoom by Fat Larrys Band, LOVE it
And I think there's just time for one more.  But which to pick, there's so many!  I think I'll stay in the 80's as that's where most of my music lives.  The video to this is HILARIOUSLY BAD
And that's all folks!  I hope you've enjoyed my jolly musical mystery tour, and if you carry on this tag please let me know, would love to see your post.

Until next time,
