Thanks guys...this was so much fun!
Here is the tag:
"List seven songs you are into right now.
No matter what the genre, whether they have words, or even if they
are not any good, but they must be songs you’re really enjoying now.."
I've decided to go with some fave tunes from the 80's since I've been
listening to many of these lately while downloading songs to my new
iPod shuffle :) I still enjoy listening all these years later and each one
brings back memories of where my life was at the time.. music has
always been very important to me.. :)
if you click on the song name you can watch the video clip on YouTube :)
...now to pass on to 7 others (always optional of course)
Tracy ~ Hey Harriet
Suzanne ~ Create Fun & Mess
Louise ~ Home is Where the Heart Is
Tracy ~ Dragonfly
Annette ~ In This Life
Clare ~ Mbutterfudge
Christy ~ Sweet Tidings
Kiss This Thing Goodbye by Del Amitri
Our House by Madness
Under Pressure by David Bowie & Queen
The Whole of the Moon by The Waterboys

Hello Gina! I have left a comment on the Fiskars site! As with regards to songs, I am besotted with Michael Buble at the moment and have to keep watching him sing 'Save the last dance for me' on you tube! I haven't got 7 songs I am into right now - just the one song and one man!!!

Outstanding list, Gina...great hits, all of them! Happy Summer Days :o)

What great songs, Gina! Thanks for doing the tag. I love David Bowie, and the Youtube scenes of old movies with the people getting into the subway reminds me if NYC, and the video of Peter Gabriel was unique to say the least .
I also love the Waterboys, and have a few of their CD's and they are friends on myspace. Mellencamp looked so young in that video! Great song!.
Del Amitir and New Order new to me -- good songs!
I'll do the Fiskars thing but I don't know you last name?
Hugs, Pat

Gina, I left a comment on Fisker(and I saw I didn't need your last name), but in my haste I messed it up a little (put the wrong blog link for you), and had to repost, and then I made spelling errors...lol...it's one of those days here for me as I'm rushing to do some blog stuff before I go out. So sorry!

Wow you sure are into 80s music! Madness were such a fun band. I love the 'Bizarre Love Triangle' song. Somebody years ago did a wonderful cover version of that song...I think it was the girl from Frente. It was very beautiful. Hmmm...I listen to so much music I'll have to start thinking about narrowing it down to 7 of my current faves. Hopefully I will have narrowed it down by Wednesday & post my picks then. Thanks for the tag. Normally I don't like tags but this one seems fun :)

Gina: I knew your list would be very divergent from mine. They were interesting choices from the past.

Thanks for the tag, Gina. Your 7 are great!
I'll get round to posting mine soon...ish!

Ah! Another Del Amitri fan! I must turn my Ipod round to them.
And I think Tracy's right, Frente did cover Bizarre Love Triangle, and it was very sweet.

Thanks for tagging me Gina, I would love to play this one. Music plays a bit part in my life too. Great songs from the 80s. We have the Waterboys on our downloads and I remember buying Under Pressure when I was at college during my lunch break, in Woolworths! x

So thrilled you tagged me...made me blush...I'm loving this new (to me - god knows where I've been!) blogging world.
I'm probably over thinking the whole thing, I've been talking over my choices with friends and family and still can't decide, but promise to "relax" and enjoy choosing...any time now,lol.
Hugs, ClareX

Amazing hey!! Have a good night. Ax:0)
