#MusicChallenge #20SongsByYear 1973 17. Kris Kristofferson – Why Me Lord Not a big country music fan nor am I a devotee of spiritual music but I’ll make an exception because of how deeply personal this song feels to Kris. www.youtube.com/watch?v=mtQO...

#MusicChallenge #80sTop30 28. Live for Today – Lords of the New Church Aside from a double bill of the Dead Boys and Richard Hell and the Voidoids, seeing these guys in a small club in Boston was the most frightened I’d ever been by a crowd in my life. www.youtube.com/watch?v=2RC6...

Please stop with the political posts on here. That is NOT why we come to BlueSky and why we find it such a welcome refuge. There are countless other social platforms to see the horrors of what's going on in the world. Leave it off here.

#MusicChallenge #80sTop30 29. Judy In Disguise – Silicon Teens In a decade chock-a-block with goofy songs and bands, this remake of an already peculiar ditty has to rank well up there. www.youtube.com/watch?v=J5HC...

#MusicChallenge #20SongsByYear 1973 19. B.W. Stevenson – My Maria Anyone who can hold a note the way this dude does throughout this perfect piece of pop deserves to make this list. www.youtube.com/watch?v=JdBv...

#MusicChallenge #20SongsByYear 1973 20. The Sweet – Little Willy Kicking it off with one of the great 70’s glam rock bands. I’m still trying to figure out what a star-shine shimmy shuffle smile is, though. www.youtube.com/watch?v=NM6I...

Happy #Caturday from Billie and Roscoe

#20SongsByYear 1986 1 The Smiths -Bigmouth Strikes Again This album always reminds me of moving 3,000 miles to a city (SF) where I knew no one, couldn’t afford to live, and hated my job. I dove into music that summer in order to stay sane. Thanks, Stephen and Johnny www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ptzh...

RIP Robert Redford For all his incredible on screen performances my favorite film of his will always be one that he "only" directed and narrated, A River Runs Through It. It is an exquisite film and if the final 10 minutes of that movie don't rip your guts out then you're not human.
