Monday's Music Moves Me...I'm In the Spotlight With British Invasion!




Hey, I am back for another Monday's Music. I was chosen as the Spotlight Dancer so, of course I had to play. This week I have chosen British Invasion. Now, it can be present singers, past singers, or groups. I think you would be surprised how many of our beloved performers are indeed British.
You decide!

Don't forget to sign up on the linky. Now, let's rock!

First up: One of my favorite groups is also one of the oldest around. Freddy Mercury was their lead singer and song writer. Although he has had a replacement or two, his vocalizations are still widely loved to this day. One of my favorite songs from his group, Queen is this one:



Next up: This next singer I never knew to be British, but indeed he is. I loved his music when he was most popular in the 1980's. One of his most famous and award winning songs is this one. I give you, Billy Ocean.


Finally: This singer has been another favorite of mine for years. Even with suffering a great loss of his son, he wrote one of the most well known and heartfelt songs. This song by Eric Clapton was also well know and a winner as well.




BONUS: I know all of my artist are male artist. Maybe next time I will post only female artist. So, on to my BONUS song. I would be terribly amiss if I did not include the following band. They were what the British Invasion was all about. They just happened to have made a song named after me. LOL

I am of course talking about...The Beatles!


Have a good week!

Our Spotlight Dancer is...Patrick Weaseman.

Their has been some amazing music come from our friends across the way and I truly love a lot of the music.

First up: I have always said I was born too late as I missed the whole flower power and all that. Yeah, I think I would have been a hippie that handed out flowers to everyone. Anyway, this song by the Zombies was produced the year I was born!



Next: In 2012, there was a live concert on TV for Sandy Relief. Tamirisc and I watched in its entirety. The WHO played on forever and everyone ate it up. Here is the group in 2012 and back in their hey day!






Next up: This group I am not as familiar with but I do know some of their music. I am including them here because...well, check out their dance moves. You gotta love it!


I am going with this one because I love the beat of it. The music is funky and it is simply great.


There is so much great music that I could go on and on but I am going to stop with...yes, a Beatles one. I wonder why I might like this song? Although in truth, I used to hate it! Can you imagine?
