Mondays Music...May 14, 2012


Hey all! It is Monday and that of course means it is time for my favorite meme hosted by Xmas Dolly...Mondays Music Moves Me.
This week is no theme week but you know I always enjoy giving you something special. Right?


A few night back, Tamirisc and I watched the movie Mr. Holland's Opus. I have seen the movie several times before but I think this time it just really spoke to me.

Therefore, this week I am sharing some of the wonderful music that came out of that movie.

Let's get started with this one: (this song is only named the way it is because of the character in the movie...it is sung by Julian Lennon.)




Next up: (now from the father-John Lennon. Note: this is from the movie so the ending was changed slightly...Richard Dreyfuss did sing this and signed it. *smiles*)




Next: (a bit of George Gershwin)

 

Finally: (Let's boogie on outta her with this one)

 
 
Peace...Naila Moon

I haven't seen Mr Holland's Opus is years, probably since my teaching days. I forgot how much I loved it. Thanks for highlighting the music from it.

I don't think I've ever seen Mr. Holland's Opus, but I'm quite curious to watch it now that you've showcased some of the great music in it!

Great choices for this week's freebie theme :)

Have a musical week!
