Nothing like listening to a bunch of old songs with the word 'chain' in the title.
From left is Sam Cooke's woeful hit from 1960 called Chain Gang, which peaked at No.2 on the US Billboard charts and at No. 9 in the UK.
Next is the song Chains, written by Gerry Goffin and Carole King, recorded by The Beatles for their first album, Please Please Me released in 1963. It was only released as an album track with lead vocals by George Harrison.
Aretha Franklin's Chain of Fools was released in 1968 and reached No.2 on the US Billboard charts and No. 1 on the US Billboard R&B charts cementing Aretha's standing as the Queen of Soul. An amazing song by an amazing singer.
Ball and Chain is the Big Mama Thornton song recorded live and released in 1968 on the album Cheap Thrills by Big Brother & the Holding Company. It proved that Janis Joplin could do justice to the blues with her powerful rendition of the song.
The Pretenders were a proto-punk/ new wave band led by guitarist-songwriter Chrissie Hynde. They released Back on the Chain Gang in 1982. It reached No. 7 on the US Billboard charts and No. 17 in the UK. I remember this song getting a lot of air play, at least in southern Ontario.
We're Here looks at Chains today.

The Széchenyi Chain Bridge (LánchÃd) is a suspension bridge that spans the River Danube between Buda and Pest, the western and eastern sides of Budapest, the capital of Hungary. It was the first permanent bridge across the Danube in Budapest, and was opened in 1849. It is anchored on the Buda side to Adam Clark Square, and the lower end of the Castle Hill Funicular, leading to Buda Castle.
Buda Castle (Budavári Palota) is the historical castle and palace complex of the Hungarian kings in Budapest, first completed in 1265. In the past, it was also called Royal Palace (Királyi-palota) and Royal Castle (Királyi Vár). Buda Castle was built on the southern tip of Castle Hill, bounded on the north by what is known as the Castle District (Várnegyed), famous for its Medieval, Baroque, and 19th-century houses, churches, and public buildings. The castle is part of the Budapest World Heritage Site, declared in 1987. Source: Wikipedia.

A portion of Markarian's chain, a stretch of galaxies that forms part of the Virgo Cluster. The Virgo Cluster comprises of approximately 1300 (and possibly up to 2000) member galaxies and its centre is approximately 53.8 million light years away. It forms the heart of the larger Virgo Supercluster, of which the Local Group (containing our Milky Way galaxy) is a member. In this image, there are at least 21 galaxies. I did make an annotated version but the annotation distracts from the beauty of all those galaxies but left to right they are: NGC 4473, IC 3420, NGC 4463, NGC 4458, IC 3393, IC 3388, IC 3386, NGC 4438, NGC 4435, NGC 4425, IC 3363, IC 3355, IC 3349, NGC 4403, NGC 4406 (M86), IC 3333, NGC 4402, NGC 4388, NGC 4387, IC 3303, NGC 3474 (M84).

Today's arrival. She's my first Ginger. How come no one warned me how cute she'd be? I was planning to keep only her fashions and accessories, but now I'm waffling. Hmmm...
Every chain has got a weak link
I might be weak, child, but I'll give you strength
One of these mornings the chain is gonna break
