The Beatles on iTunes

Recently, the music of The Beatles became available on iTunes. I am grateful that this has finally come about! As a huge fan of The Beatles, I had many of their LP’s and I’m really looking forward to downloading the music I want directly from iTunes.  The Beatles’ music for me is timeless (but the videos of them surely show the age!)   Now, many generations of people will have access to the wonderful songs of The Beatles. Today I’m appreciating that.

Here’s “Something” for you to listen to and watch! Enjoy!

¡Música en Español!

While I am a native speaker of English, I also know Spanish. I have to say that I’m very appreciative of the opportunities in my life that led to learning another language, too. One of the reasons I love Spanish so much is that I can appreciate the full experience of the music in Spanish.  I’m a romantic and there are many romantic songs in Spanish that are true poetry set to beautiful music, with orchestras and great singers.  Music is and always be a big part of my life and over the years, I’ve come to know many Spanish-speaking artists’ works and to appreciate them.

Here’s one I really like, sung by Luis Miguel for you to enjoy! It’s called Motivos.

Good Morning!

Good morning! What a wonderful way to wake up and feel good! I so appreciate musicals and want to share this classic piece with you this morning.  Music and dance are wonderful ways to feel good. Enjoy and have a great day everyone!

Songs That Make You Feel Good

I don’t know about you, but I absolutely love music and most forms of it. Music can influence us in so many ways: by drowning in our sorrows to uplifting our souls and everything in between. For me, any song that either makes me laugh or makes me feel like dancing is a wonderful way to raise my spirit and feel good.

Now there are MANY songs that I can put here but today I am grateful for one in particular. It’s a song from the disco era of the 70′s and it’s Boogie Wonderland, from the fabulous group Earth, Wind and Fire.  When I watch this version, I can’t help but  laugh and smile at all the fun they were having singing, dancing, twirling trumpets, tossing tamborines and dancing tangos with their guitars! It makes me feel really good and gets me dancing everytime.

So, thank you for this song, Earth, Wind and Fire! Some thirty years later, I still feel really good hearing it. Shall we dance?
