For me and everyone else who need it

I tend to turn to music when I don't know how to express my feelings. A song just pops up in my head. And just now this one did. I haven't listened to it for ages. And even longer ago since I saw the video. Boost!

Lot's of love to you all!

Today I learned something about David Watts ...

... that I didn't already know. I have loved this song ever since it was released by The Jam on the album All Mod Cons in 1978. But guess what! It actually is a Kinks song originally. What do you know! Anyway, enjoy!

I think I will have to listen to the whole album now. Loud! Or I'll wait until tomorrow, when no one else is here. :-)

Song of Today

Welcome to a session of goose pimples!

(Sorry I miss-spelled before, so it became another word. I've meant PIMPLES all along, nothing else!)

Shall we compare them? The goose pimples I mean!

I've moved all my previous "Song of Today" to a separate page, which you will find the link to in the new tab bar just below the header of the blog. Every time I add a new song I will do it as a post. Then I will also add it on that page.

Introducing a new feature on my blog

I am a sucker for music unless you already knew it. Every now and then I have posted a YouTube link to a piece I really like here on my blog. I even tried for a while to have a regular post once a week called Magical Musical Mondays. But I stopped doing that, to be honest simply because I didn't ever get any comments on them, after a while.

But I do wanna share music I like with you. Music and art goes hand in hand for me. I need music to get me by.

So I just now got this idea I could have a little square in my sidebar for a song I currently wanna share with you. I will swap tune on an irregular basis, but rather often. I will NOT write a post everytime I swap, so you will just have to give it a look everytime you check my blog. It will be music of all different kinds, only thing in common will be, I like it all.

So here's the first one now:

Richard III by Supergrass. The point with this one is to play it LOOOOOUUUUUD, dance like crazy, and afterwards feel completely blown away.

Look to the right for a square called "The Song of Today".

Please enjoy!

Just had to share this with you ...

... a former boyfriend of mine, Jan Nilsson, is in this band. I LIKE!!!! Their name is Skuld.
