Day 11 - a song from your favourite band

Kosheen - Slip And Slide Suicide

Friday

30 Day Song Challenge - Day 9

Day 9 - A song you can dance to


I  can dance to a lot of songs, but anyone close to me will understand this track is a bit of a classic for me when it comes to dancing. If I hear it and I'm out I will do a sily dance routine like a 14 year old :D haha


Wednesday

30 Day Song Challenge - Day 7 - Glastonbury 02

Day 07 - a song that reminds you of a certain event 


Ok I'm going to be a bit cheeky and post an actual video of this band/song at an event - it was the time I fell in love with Kosheen. I saw them live at Glastonbury in 2002 and fell head over heels with this band. It was an awesome weekend and when I listen to Kosheen it takes me back to Glasto 02 :D




Monday

30 Day Song Challenge - Day 6 - A song that reminds you of somewhere



A song that reminds you of somewhere - This song reminds me of Route 66  (a club in Portsmouth - now renamed Pure) On a Monday night @ Delight (a weekly alternative/indie aimed at students etc night)

Dancing the night away with friends and getting a bit hammered!

Sunday

30 Day Song Challenge - Day 5

Day 5 - A song that reminds you of someone



This always reminds me of my mum. She used to play Melanie a lot when I was younger so brings back memories of her singing it round the house when we lived in Portchester

Saturday

30 Day Song Challenge - Day 4

A song that makes you sad - Kosheen - I want it all


Just always makes me think back to when I wanted to be with Matt (b4 we were together) and how much I needed him to be all mine.









I could only find a live version of this track but its still sung just as beautiful




Tide keeps rolling in
I stand watching it
Keep on
giving it to
us
Silence over me
Keep on holding me
Every night
I know where you sleep
And it's hurting me
It's hurting me


When I want it all
For myself
I want it all
I want him for myself
I want it all
 

You tease me
Telling me
It's over
Wait and see
Leave it
You're lying
When you tell me
You're not happy
Come to me
For sympathy
Every night
I know where you sleep
And it's hurting me
It's hurting me



Tide keeps rolling in
I stand watching
As you keep on
giving it to
her
Keep on
Keep it on
Time isn't holding us
Isn't after us
It's hurting me

Friday

Flashback Friday - Portchester Castle

 I''m not sure of the dates of these photos, they were all taken at Portchester Castle  I should have asked my mum. I'm guessing I was about 9/10 maybe I'm not really sure. I loved going there, and lived locally at some points in my life - I moved about a lot as a kid.

 I want to take Jared there one day for a day out, its only a 15 min  train ride and a 20 min walk away, just gotta find a day thats nice and hopefully take him in the summer.

I went over to my mums house yesterday and scanned in the photos of me and her and uploaded them to FB for her. I love old photos! The one of my and my brother I had scanned into my PC a while ago.
Me and my mum
Me and my older brother Martin

Me and my mum again

If you want to take part in Flashback Friday and share your own memories head over to Café Bébé



30 Day Song Challenge - Day 3

Day 3 - A song that makes you happy



It's actually a song on a mix CD that runs all as one track, and this is my fave part of it, I cant get this particular track mix as a single I have to play the full 67 minutes of it - unless I go on youtube! :)

It always makes me happy to listen to it for certain reasons

I love the lyrics

Can't wait 'till this day is over, can't wait for this day to be done.
Can't wait feel the end is closer, you can't keep me holding on.
'Cause I'm drown by a feeling, the night is calling me.
I'm ready to start living, where music flows free.

Take me or leave me, I am what I will be.
Live young and so free, make this reality.
Break through and feel it, just like that first kiss.
And now you won't miss, life is bliss, could bliss be this? Yeah!

Midnight, the real me,
I'm shining, oh can't you see?
Midnight, I'm letting myself go,
I'm lost in the rythm, the night takes control.

Can't get up I must come down, can't get the bells to stop ringing.
Can't reject and leave now, 9 to 5 has lost its meaning.
Dear I'm sure you know this feeling, you know what's on my mind.
'Cause when the night comes i'm leaving, leaving it all behind.

Take me or leave me, I am what I will be.
Live young and so free, make this reality.
Break through and feel it, just like that first kiss.
And now you want this, life is bliss, could bliss be this? Yeah!
