🎶✨Song of the Day and Music Thread!✨🎶

[caitbird]

Hello BIC beauties! 😊 I realized we don't have an active music thread here in BIC (there seem to be a few different short-lived threads from years past, but nothing recent as far as I could find), and I thought it would be fun to have a place to recommend our favorite artists and songs, chat about what we've been listening to lately, post our song of the day or anything else music related! Everyone is welcome to join in however you like, however often you like, and all types of music are welcome! 💜

@itsfi @ I understand. I used to wash off a scent if I didnt like it initially. The other day, I tried a sample of a Killian perfume and it grew on me through the day. It is interesting how that works!

@itsfi  jazz is so underrated, I think! I can see it making for great getting ready music. Do you listen to more classic 20th century jazz, or contemporary artists, or both? I love a lot of Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong, oldies like that. My parents like jazz a lot, they went to a Jane Monheit show just last night.

P.S. love the pic! Is that the new Merit perfume?

[itsfi]

Agree @caitbird! I listen to a little of both, but mostly the classics, like Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong, Charlie Parker, Nina Simone. Oh, what a fun night for your parents! I was with some friends and they had Jane Monheit playing. 

Thank you! I've been working on some non-staged shots - not sure what that would be called - like candids but not of people. Anyhow, sorta in that vein - I did move up my phone so it appeared in the frame and turned a couple of the products around so you could see the name. Yes, that's the new MERIT Retrospect™ L’Extrait de Parfum 1 oz / 30 mL parfum spray - the presentation is visually stunning; the scent grew on me. I first tried it in store and wasn't sure about it, but I received a sample with a purchase from the brand and after wearing it a few times, really came to like it. Then went searching a couple of my local stores for it during the sale because it quickly flew off the shelves. It's woody, fruity and floral; I find the particular combination of notes in this one to be unique.

@itsfi  with jazz I listen to mostly the classics too (though I do listen to and enjoy some contemporary artists too, including Jane Monheit).

I like the way you put that, candids but not for people, an interesting idea! I always love your photos and they always inspire me to try and improve my own pictures.

That sounds like a very interesting scent, I'll have to see if I can get my hands on a sample or give it a sniff in store!

Today’s earworm is “No se acaba hasta que acabe” by Lagos ft. Reik. It translates to “it’s not over til it’s over”.  I’ve been singing the chorus all day.

@makeitup305  thanks for sharing, I will check it out! 😊

Great idea for a thread, @caitbird !  I love music.  It's really hard for me to keep up with current music.  About the only time I have time to listen to music is in the car on the way to and from work and running errands.  Then I flip through stations looking for something I like!  Today I heard Aerosmith Walk This Way (I was in 7th or 8th grade when this was popular) and found out Led Zeppelin's untitled fourth album was released 50 years ago today (this was 5th or 6th grade).  Yea, I'm old! 😄

Edit:  Love the pic! 🥰🐈🐾🎧

Walk this Way...I remember that song....we are not old...those songs are coming back!!

[caitbird]

@Titian06  thank you! 💜 I am glad to hear someone else still listens to the radio in the car, sometimes I feel like I'm the only one who hasn't moved over to Spotify lol. I don't think I know that Aerosmith song, I will have to give it a listen.

[Mellmars1185]

@caitbird Wonderful thread idea! I have been enjoying Drifting by Tiesto, Poppy Baskcomb. It gets me pumped up. Cute photo! Is that your kitty? I wonder what song he/she is listening to?

[caitbird]

@Mellmars1185  thank you! I will add this song to my list of music to check out, I can always use more pump up songs haha! Not my kitty, just a pic I found on Pinterest. I imagine he/she is listening to something relaxing and mellow.

@caitbird I've been on a Spanish music kick lately. I'm a native Spanish speaker but usually listen to mostly music in English. However, over the past few months I've discovered a couple of Spanish-speaking artists that have really drawn me in. The song that's stuck in my head today is "Tuvimos Futuro" by Lagos. It translates to "We had a future" and it's about reminiscing a past relationship about a point in time where they stayed quiet and, because they didn't talk it out, everything ended. 

[caitbird]

@makeitup305  I will have to check this song/artist out, it sounds so interesting! I love songs that tell some kind of story - I listen to a lot of traditional folk music, ballads, that sort of thing. I only speak English but I've always wanted to learn more about music from other languages and cultures.

song of the day:

Pink Martini - Hang On Little Tomato 🍅

this is one of my favorite songs that makes me feel better when I'm down 💜
