Another Seven Songs
Dec. 28th, 2021 07:45 pmHere’s the rest of that song list from yesterday. There is plenty of music I love that just didn’t fit into any of the questions, alas. So no Sondheim, no Gershwin, no Afropop, no Tuvan throat singing, etc.
8. Your favorite song to exercise to: “Desi Girl” from Dostana (Bollywood movie)
9. Your favorite song for a hot summer’s night: “Good Vibrations” by the Beach Boys. By the way, back in the late 1980’s, there was briefly a place in Venice, California (where I lived at the time) that played beach music for dancing on Sunday afternoons. That concept needs to be revitalized, but closer to where I live now.
10. Your favorite song for a cold winter’s night: “California Dreamin’” by The Mamas and the Papas
11. Your favorite song to sing to a child (not necessarily a kids’ song): “Nobody’s Moggy Now” by Eric Bogle. Er, no, my friends with children won’t let me sing to their kids.
12. A song you associate with a good memory growing up: “Papirosen” by Yanky Lemmer and Nachman Rosen. This is a sad song, but it brings back happy memories of my playing it on the piano to accompany my grandfather singing it.
13. The most embarrassing song that is on your favorites playlist that you don’t want to admit is there: “Ooor Hamlet” by Adam McNaughton
14. A song you use to motivate yourself: “The Mary Ellen Carter” by Stan Rogers
