Hi (Furry)furriends ❤
were nominated for the…
…Shuffle the music Tag!
by our furriend
so we are going to thank her
first…
…properly…
before we go on…
to hustle…and shuffle…
the first 15 songs…
that come up…
…into our heads…
and while Granny…
is giving her best
for this Shuffle Tag…
…I make one of my own…
for my furriends…
over at…
…so we can kill
two birds with one stone…
…OMC…
did I really say that…
Okay… Granny…
forget about the birds…
let’s do it…
…start the shuffle…
The first song…
that shuffles around is…
Back to the 80th…
Granny’s Golden Years…
…of music…
A Lover of New Age…
changed all the directions…
…of her life…
…dancing the night away…
with the Simple Minds…
and feeling down black…
…all dressed up in black…
…on a Wonderpurr life…
…1971…
Granny poured her whole heart
into this song…
…of Cat Stevens…
She loved to sing…
and was best class singer
in those days…
…1971…
she never forgets this song….
it was the song when she heard
that God took her best girl furriend back
to heaven…
…because of throat cancer
…she was only 13 years… young…
…One of the reasons that
Granny stopped singing
ever since…
Love hurts…
an everlasting song…
of which the words still count…
who doesn’t feel it when you hear this song…
And then came Queen
in 1974…
and Granny was fan from this moment on…
…she went to their concert
to see Freddy Mercury close by…
and close he was…
only a hand-touch away…
singing out of tune…
…but let’s not let that
spoil the fun… 😉
Depeche Mode
brings finally some quietness
into some agitated years…
…and brought Granny into
Alternative Rock Style of
Radiohead…
…among others…
1969…
Janis Joplin…great singer…
…Woodstock…
11 year old Granny
could only dream
to be there…
…she had to listen to the songs
on the radio…
…the antenna
hung out of the window…
because there wasn’t
a plug inside of the house…
like we have now…
…those were the days…
…my furriends…
Kinks…
Granny loved their music…
…and the singer
…Ray Davies…
well…
Her grand nephew
who was a few years older than Granny…
had the album
of the Kinks…
and when Granny visited
her great-aunt
he always left the album for her
to listen…
that was so kind of him…
that she never forgets….
…him either…MOL 😀
When Granny was about 17 years…
she loved to dance
on the music of Alice Cooper…
School was out….
and she and two of her furriends
danced on stage
in a dancing…
Granny danced the slow part
and her furriends the
…headbangers ball…
Great stuff to remember…
This is one of Granny’s best music
…to get into
relaxation mode….
…my favourite part…
…just listening…
…and dream away…
Yes… yes…
she has seen him too…
her first concert
…sitting in the front row
together with two boy furriends…
and she almost could touch
…David Bowie…
but she was so in shock
that she couldn’t move
…at all…
during the whole concert…
…MOL 😀
This was the beginning of
her…
…as Grandpaw would say…
…Rock Chick Career…
Almost everybody was into
The Beatles’
She loves you…yeah…yeah…yeah…
but Granny was
totally attached by
…Mick Jagger…
and his Rolling Stones…
…Granny has a lot more songs
that have a…deep…
place in her heart…
like Coldplay’s Yellow…
Talking Heads’ Once in a Lifetime…
Snow Patrol’s Run…
Reggae…
Country…
and of course Classical music…
…that I like most too…
Now let me add
another Artwork…
that I was able to do
on LunaPic
in the meantime…
and another one…
where I ended up
on Granny’s lap…
because of the
…Neverending story…
Both are made
with the Rainbow filter
…to stay in style…

We sure had, Melissa and Mudpie. Granny loves Country too, but Grandpaw is the real Country Boy in this house 😀 Pawkisses 🙂 ❤

Your Caturday art was fantastic….as it always is my friends.

That’s quite a selection! You and Granny have good taste 🙂

Thanks, Draliman, Granny could go on for hours, if I hadn’t have said STOP…MOL 😀 Pawkisses 🙂 ❤
Aug 26, 2017 @ 18:06:11
What a great post!
Mum loves music and she has eclectic taste. She remembers that Cure track from her youth and remembers liking it a lot. I like music too, but I don’t care for heavy metal much, which Mum likes to play sometimes. I prefer classical and pop music.
Love your art too.
Aug 28, 2017 @ 10:15:05
Thanks for your input, Athena 🙂 Granny also loved heavy metal, especially when it is mixed with Gothic ❤ Double Pawkiss for you and your mom 🙂 ❤ ❤
Aug 26, 2017 @ 17:47:18
What a fun post! I just want to hug you up,Little Binky! Your artwork is just beautiful! And I love Grannie’s selection of music! We have a lot of the same taste! A couple videos didn’t come through (not available in U.S.) and some were new to me. But Cat Stevens, Janis Joplin, Kinks — fabulous! Love the 60s and 70s! And I always had a crush on David Bowie! For me, I fell onto the Beatles’ bandwagon, but the Rolling Stones were the only ones that ever gave them any competition!
Aug 28, 2017 @ 10:12:36
Hope you were able to take a look at the videos on YouToube, Linda 🙂 Granny loves the 60s and 70s too, they bring back so many memories of her childhood. I think had a crush on every singer she summed up…and there were so many more in those years…MOL MOL 😀 Double Pawkiss to you my furriend 🙂 ❤
Aug 28, 2017 @ 14:50:28
Ah, those were the days, my friend, we thought they’d never end…. 😆 ❤ ❤
Aug 26, 2017 @ 16:49:32
That is quit a collection of songs. I live the jammin’ kitty pictures and your beautiful rainbow (psychedelic) kitty.

Congrats!! I love Cat Stevens too! Art work is gorgeous😊so vibrant!
Aug 28, 2017 @ 10:06:18
Thanks Garfield, he’s a great singer and songwriter 🙂 Pawkisses 🙂 ❤
Aug 26, 2017 @ 15:39:11
That is an excellent list of songs, many that I love but have not heard in years. I think I would have to add some Willie Nelson, Prince, and Florence & The Machine. 🙂
Aug 28, 2017 @ 10:00:33
Oh, we love them too, kitties, all of them *high paw* We hear the songs still on the radio, especially the 80th 🙂 Pawkisses 🙂 ❤
Aug 26, 2017 @ 15:32:58
Excellent catalog. Happy weekend.
Aug 28, 2017 @ 09:56:17

Thanks Peaches and Paprika 🙂 Pawkisses 🙂 ❤
Aug 26, 2017 @ 10:50:13
what a wonderful collection you picked, well done… Alice is still the copilot of the mama when she drives to town… she points with her finger at all the idiots around her while hissing: you’re poissssson!
and we love talk talk… the cover version by Gwen Stefani was also not bad… specially the video…
the mama thinks with Freddie a part of the music generally was gone… there is no one like Freddie… think his charisma and his voice were a gift what happens once in thousand years…
Aug 28, 2017 @ 09:55:14
MOL..I can picture it, Phenny…MOL 😀 Double Pawkiss 🙂 ❤ ❤
