Inspired by the track Moss Garden by David Bowie on the Heroes album. Quite apt as our lawn is covered in moss, currently covered in icy frost crystals.

Yesterday, all my troubles seemed so far away
Now it looks as though they're here to stay
Oh, I believe in yesterday
Suddenly I'm not half the man I used to be
There's a shadow hanging over me
Oh, yesterday came suddenly
As we've longed for times gone by, I have often turned to this song.

Macro Mondays: "Lockdown song"
Old French pop song about the urge to play guitar.
Der kleine schwarze Vogel. Auf der Suche nach dem, was der Tag so bringen kann.

This song just goes so well with this time. The global pandemic also makes us sit up and listen. Tell us a story, your story. About your experiences, injuries, wishes, dreams. And as you get through, survive. Melancholy and hope at the same time. From songs that we love, we often take the strength to go on, let us drift, let ourselves be reminded, let ourselves consciously change our mood and, last but not least, simply forget, whirl around, swing, spin with our favourite music during a lively dance. Looking for what the day may bring.
///
Dieser Song passt einfach so gut zu dieser Zeit. Die weltweite Pandemie lässt uns auch aufhorchen, zuhören. Erzähl uns eine Geschichte, Deine Geschichte. Von Deinen Erlebnissen, Verletzungen, Wünschen, Träumen. Und wie Du durchkommst, überlebst. Melancholie und Hoffnung zugleich. Aus Songs, die wir lieben, nehmen wir oft die Kraft weiterzumachen, lassen uns treiben, lassen uns erinnern, lassen uns bewusst unsere Stimmung verändern und nicht zuletzt bei einem ausgelassenen Tanz mit unserer Lieblingsmusik einfach vergessen, herumwirbeln, schwingen, drehen. Auf der Suche nach dem, was der Tag bringen kann.

Look at the way she walks
The little black bird with no wings
She hops around the city
Looking for what the day may bring
She never took to pity
The little black bird with no wings
She fills me up with hope
The little blackbird with no wings
Someone crushed her wings in haste
When I see her heart stings
A survivor and she's full of grace
The little black bird with no wings
Sing little black bird sing, sing your song
For I can sit here all day long
Wondering what went, what went wrong?
Sing little black bird sing sing your song
Take your time for I'm all ears
I've been watching you for all these years

#MacroMondays 2021 / January 25 / #LockdownSong / HMM to everyone!
I have like Queen and David Bowie since my University days in the dim and distant past so when they collaborated on this song, which for me has been a great Lockdown song, in 1981, it was a rare treat!
In the summer past, I could drive along and sing along with Freddie Mercury and all the great Queen songs, releasing some of the pressure induced by the constant state of tension induced by the virus.
My lockdown songs are all the Queen and Bowie numbers but this one is special!
This is more of a tribute to metal and hard rock in general than a single track, but I’ve rediscovered some classic albums during lockdown. Fade to Black was one of the first Metallica songs I heard back when I was at school in the 80’s and started a lifelong following.
The song itself is pretty deep, after reminding myself of the lyrics it’s all about suicide, so please don’t think it’s reflected in my mood!
Just last week I bought a cracking new pair of Bluetooth earphones that a are perfect for thrashing too whenever I get the chance! (Today while cleaning the bathroom)
I was going for the classic metal album cover look à la ‘The Black Album’ or ‘Black in Black, originally I shot a marble which was kind of cool, then I found this lump of iron pyrite which seemed to fit the theme perfectly!

Macro Mondays - Lockdown Song
Great energy and humour in this song - most welcome these days.
During the lockdown, it was a pleasure to listen to my favorite song "Somewhere over the rainbow" from Hawaiian singer-musician Israel IZ Kamakawiwoʻole and his ukulele. #Macro #MacroMondays #LockdownSong
... inspired by the song "11 o'clock, tick tock" by U2. We recently got all of our vinyl down from the loft, bought ourselves a turntable and are plodding our way through our youth! I thought I had lost this single, and was distraught so I had been frantically looking on eBay for it and was astonished to see the prices people were asking for it. Luckily I found it lurking inside another single
I love Bob Dylan albums. Any one of his songs could have very well been my "lockdown song". I picked "One More Cup of Coffee" for the theme. It has a catchy rhythm and it is easy to bring to life in a photograph. :)
Bob Dylan - One More Cup of Coffee
Your breath is sweet, your eyes are like
Two jewels in the sky
Your back is straight, your hair is smooth
On the pillow where you lie
But I don't sense affection
No gratitude or love
Your loyalty is not to me but to the stars above
One more cup of coffee for the road
One more cup of coffee 'fore I go
To the valley below
Your daddy he's an outlaw
And a wanderer by trade
He'll teach you how to pick an' choose
And how to throw the blade
And he oversees his kingdom
So no stranger does intrude
His voice it trembles as he calls out
For another plate of food
One more cup of coffee for the road
One more cup of coffee 'fore I go
To the valley below
Your sister sees the future
Like your momma and yourself
You've never learned to read or write
There's no books upon your shelf
And your pleasure know no limits
Your voice is like a meadow lark
But your heart is like an ocean
Mysterious and dark
One more cup of coffee for the road
One more cup of coffee 'fore I go
To the valley below
"Macro Mondays" "Lockdown Song"
There must be an Angel - Stevie Wonders
Here is the original performance:
Love letters straight from your heart
Keep us so near while apart
I'm not alone in the night
When I can have all the love you write
I memorize every line
And I kiss the name that you sign
And, darling, then I read again right from the start
Love letters straight from your heart
I memorize every line
And I kiss the name that you sign
And, darlin', then I read again right from the start
Love letters straight from your heart.

Letters from my boyfriend at the time - now my husband for over 45 years. Letters he sent to me whilst he was away studying at University. Much more romantic than text messages 😊❤️
My lockdown music has been re-visiting my Genesis/Floyd collections and catching up on Steve Hackett's ouvre.
As well as the stuff I always listen to - Paul Simon/Ralph McTell/Eagles/etc. etc., also been following Clemency Burton-Hill's 'Year of Wonder' classical music suggestions. So which to choose, really . . .

With rock I need to chase away the melancholy, in this Lockdown period!

This is a small filigree heart with a chain necklace. I used a couple of Omni filters, one of which duplicated the heart in the top right corner. This was taken on my blue background but I preferred the desaturated edit. HMM
I will be back later to try to catch up with commenting
I'm rather taken to using this little pendant for Macro Monday themes.
This picture is an interpretation of a scene from the second episode of a sweet Netflix series "Emily in Paris" and a link to the song "Summer in Paris" by Bea Parks www.youtube.com/watch?v=xjvdpl9MdIo from the first episode. I watched the series last year while stuck at home and feeling nostalgic for a time we were able to travel.

"Busted flat in Baton Rouge, waitin' for a train
When I's feelin' near as faded as my jeans
Bobby thumbed a diesel down just before it rained
And rode us all the way into New Orleans
I pulled my harpoon out of my dirty red bandana
I's playin' soft while Bobby sang the blues..."
Today's Macro Mondays theme is "Lockdown Song," or an illustration of a song or genre of music that we listen to while locked at home during the pandemic.
"Me And Bobby McGee," written by Kris Kristofferson, is the song that I'm trying to portray with this image. I've got the faded jeans from line 2 above, and the harpoon (slang for harmonica) and dirty red bandana from the first line of the second verse. (Actually I used an old plaid shirt, as I don't have a bandana) :-)
Here's a link to a version of the song by Janis Joplin, which has long been a favorite of mine: www.youtube.com/watch?v=sfjon-ZTqzU

A watch and a score as a whole, made me think of a ballet entitled "The Dance of the Hours" (La Danza delle Ore in Italian) taken from an opera by the Italian composer Amilcare Ponchielli, La Gioconda. With the "Dance of the Hours" Ponchielli has magically rendered into music the idea of the twelve dancers representing the twelve hours and two dancers who simulate the hands of the clock. Music and ballet describe in a fabulous symphonic progression the dance of the hours of dawn, the hours of day, the hours of the night and the morning. The "Dance of the Hours" is the only piece by an Italian composer used by Disney in the animated musical film Fantasia. This is my musical and photographic contribution of today’s Macro Mondays them: “Lockdown Song.” HMM!

Un orolologio e una partitura in un insieme mi hanno fatto pensare ad un Balletto dal titolo "La Danza delle Ore" tratto dall'Opera La Gioconda del compositore Amilcare Ponchielli.Con la “Danza delle ore” Ponchielli ha magicamente reso in musica l'idea delle dodici ballerine raffiguranti le dodici ore e dei due ballerini che simulano le lancette dell’orologio. Musica e balletto descrivono in una favolosa sinfonica progressione l'avanzare delle ore del giorno e della notte. La "Danza delle ore" è l'unico brano di un compositore italiano utilizzato dalla Disney nel film musicale di animazione Fantasia.
Une montre et une partition dans son ensemble m'ont fait penser à un ballet intitulé « La danse des heures", tiré d'un opéra du compositeur italien Amilcare Ponchielli: « La Gioconda ».Avec la "Danse des heures", Ponchielli a superbement réalisé une idée en musique avec douze danseuses représentant les douze heures et deux danseurs qui simulent les aiguilles de la montre où musique et ballet décrivent, dans une fabuleuse progression symphonique, l'avance des heures du jour et de la nuit. La "Danse des heures" est la seule pièce d'un compositeur italien utilisée par Disney dans le film musical d'animation Fantasia.

I cleaned out the cabinets recently and came across the last, rather old box of valentine candy we had long since forgotten. The candy was still sweet. Decided not to eat this one. ;) Will save these wistful words instead.

It's so exciting, why should I pretend?
In a few hours, the plane will descend
Hey Honolulu, I'm going to happy Hawaii
I can imagine the beach and the sand
Walking with someone and holding his hand
Hey Honolulu, I'm going to happy Hawaii.

For #MacroMondays and this week's theme #LockdownSong.
Happy Macro Monday!
Thanks for all your faves and comments everyone!
I really appreciate them!
Macro Monday theme for 1/25/21: Lockdown Song. I chose "Paint It Black" by the Rolling Stones as it is one of the first songs I learned to play on guitar.

- The First Cut Is The Deepest by Rod Stewart
www.youtube.com/watch?v=pr3zpqp3ypY
Lyrics:
I would have given you all of my heart
But there's someone who's torn it apart
And he's taking just all that I had
But if you want, I'll try to love again
Baby, I'll try to love again, but I know
The first cut is the deepest, baby, I know
The first cut is the deepest
But when it comes to being lucky, he's cursed
When it comes to lovin' me, he's worse
I still want you by my side
Just to help me dry the tears that I've cried
And I'm sure gonna give you a try
If you want, I'll try to love again, try
Baby, I'll try to love again, but I know, oh
The first cut is the deepest, baby, I know
The first cut is the deepest
But when it comes to being lucky, he's cursed
When it comes to lovin' me, he's worse
I still want you by my side
Just to help me dry the tears that I've cried
But I'm sure gonna give you a try
'Cause if you want, I'll try to love again
(Try to love again, try to love again)
Baby, I'll try to love again, but I know, oh
The first cut is the deepest, baby, I know
The first cut is the deepest
But when it comes to being lucky, he's cursed
When it comes to lovin' me, he's worse, oh oh
The first cut is the deepest, baby, I know
The first cut is the deepest
Try to love again
I'm not a great Motorhead fan. But one of my favourite bands, Del Amitri always performed a cover of this song in their live show.
