Macro Mondays - Lockdown Song

I'm thinking on the song 'Yellow Submarine'.

A yellow ball lonely on a deep blue background like a yellow submarine lonely in the blue wide ocean. Maybe, many people are lonley in the Corona Lockdown, which is why I've choosen a minimalist motif.

Theme: Lockdown with Music/Lockdown Song

HMM!

Funky Bass with Henrik Linder my current fav!

Aztec Camera - Working In A Goldmine.

🎶Quench me, when I'm thirsty, come and cool me down, when I'm hot🎶

Folk rock HMM

 

'Cause I need some of that vagueness now

It's all come back too clearly

Yes I loved you dearly

And if you're offering me diamonds and rust

I've already paid

Gloria The Gift of Life.

Words and music by Jonas Myrin, Robert Ezrin and Ed Cash.

Sung by Andrea Bocelli.

Peter Gabriel - The book of love

I cannot go abroad and also travel far so I have been listening my favourite Peter Gabriel CDs

The real question was what kind of a macro can I shoot to capture the true essence of Pink Floyd's Ummagumma or even Echoes. I was thinking something with a standing wave but maybe a project for a later date.

 

I didn't think the PF thing was going to pan out and my attention soon turned to a little old phone I have. It's a nice old phone, it keeps the old piano company, they share dust. So, making it's debut as an image for Macro Mondays, Lockdown Song, Operator and accompanied by a Jim Croce song of the same name. You just can't go wrong with Jim Croce songs.

The song is "Games People Play" by The Spinners. We played a lot of games and puzzles during the lockdown.

I've been down and I'm wondering why

These little black clouds keep walking around

The lockdown has given more time to reflect about life, to go back to the music that meant so much so long ago. For me, Gypsy has a tremendous value. The nostalgic feeling about the past, the history behind the song (if you google it you can find the whole background) and the symbolism. Gypsy as "free", as young without ties, as enjoying life without worries - everything we cannot have right now... and then Stevie Nicks's voice is extraordinary... and the acoustics of the last minute are sublime. I have heard this song some 1000 times in the last few months... after years of "absence"...

The theme for tomorrows Macro Monday is a Lockdown Song

This image is a Tribute to Gerry Marsden who died early this year....The iconic song is Ferry across the Mersey..........

For Macro Mondays theme; "Lockdown Song."

(A tiny matchbox car nears the city of Denver.)

 

During the lockdown, most people have dreamed of hopping in their cars, and traveling to their favorite places.

 

During this pandemic - the Willie Nelson song; "On the Road Again" does it for me. Come on summer- and goodbye to travel restriction's. I am missing my Canadian friends over in the Yukon.

 

HMM!

In 2020 - 21, when everything has shut down, movies have turned to the home screen. Here is an oldie that many folks enjoyed and still do!

 

Bond, James Bond....(1964)

 

Goldfinger, he's the man, the man with the Midas touch

A spider's touch

Such a cold finger beckons you to enter his web of sin

But don't go in

  

Goldfinger, pretty girl, beware of this heart of gold

This heart is cold

He loves only gold

Only gold

He loves gold

He loves only gold

Only gold

He loves gold

We'll drink a drink, a drink

To Lily the Pink, the Pink, the Pink

The savior of the human race

For she invented medicinal compound

Most efficacious in every case

 

Sung by the Scaffold, released in 1968

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lily_the_Pink_(song)

 

As with most songs of the times, I was totally ignorant and uncaring of the meaning behind the lyrics, I just loved singing along....

 

For Macro Mondays "Lockdown song"

The beautiful music of " the Police" . Describing the loneliness that corners many people during the pandemic.

 

Just a castaway, an island lost at sea, oh

Another lonely day, with no one here but me, oh

More loneliness than any man could bear

Rescue me before I fall into despair, oh

I'll send an S.O.S to the world

I'll send an S.O.S to the world

I hope that someone gets my

I hope that someone gets my

I hope that someone gets my

Message in a bottle, yeah

#lockdown song

One of the favorite songs of my youth. Still love it. and the Lockdown offered me time to listen, to watch and to breathe. A gift as long as you stay healthy and don‘t suffer and your existence is not in danger.

Strange phenomenon.

"Feed the birds, tuppence a bag"

(My Fair Lady, Lerner & Loewe, 1956)

 

(Elizabeth II & George V old pennies).

Many genres

This is a ticket stub from a Ringo Starr concert some years ago. I did see him again a couple of years ago. Great show. His line-up changes every few years. The members he has at the time all play their hits as well. It is literally like seeing 5 bands in one night.

My musical tastes all almost all genres. Rock, Prog rock, Jazz, Country (old & new) Blues, Classical and even the odd opera song.

Happy Macro Mondays

I'm referring to the album by The Cure as well as the title track. I remember hearing it for the first time when it was released in 1989 and it completely blew my mind. And I've never stopped listening. You could say it's been the soundtrack to my life.

 

For the photo I tried many different things but taking this pink grapefruit to pieces seems to have achieved the best image.

macro mondays: Lockdown Song...listened to many different genres and music choices this past year, but one favorite I return to frequently is "Purple Rain", song and Album by Prince. Macro of Ice and Water with colored light.

For Macro Mondays this week the theme is: inspired by a song. I wasn't so much inspired by one song but was listening to a Spotify playlist of golden oldies and the Beatles song 'Yesterday' came on. Nice to sing along and with it all the memories of days gone by. My eye fell on the little crystal cube with my mother's portrait engraved in it that was given to me at my mother's funeral in May 2019. I had not seen her alive since 2015 since she lived on the other side of the world. Sometimes nice to go down memory lane. And music certainly helps here.

Happy Macro Monday/ HMM

Don't leave

Don't leave

I want you to realise when I'm gone

My, my

My, my

You are the only thing I wanna own

There's sugar on your soul

And you're like no one I know

You're the life from another world

You swallow me whole

With just a mumbled hello

And it breaks my heart to love you

It breaks my heart to love you

Don't leave

Don't leave

When you're lost in a moment, I am home

I try

I try

To make you realise when I'm gone, gone, gone

There's sugar on your soul

You're like no one I know

You're the light from another world

You swallow me whole

With just a mumbled hello

And it breaks my heart to love you

It breaks my heart to love you

There's sugar on your soul

There's sugar on your soul

There's sugar on your soul

And your like no one I know

You're the life from another world

You swallow me whole

With just a mumbled hello

And it breaks my heart to love you

It breaks my heart to love you

Don't leave

Don't leave

I want you to realise when I'm gone

HMM!

 

Didn't we all eat too much chocolate cake during lockdown!

 

"Chocolate Cake" is a 1991 song by Crowded House.

Written by Neil Finn and Tim Finn.

 

"Can I have another piece of chocolate cake

Can I have another piece of chocolate cake

Can I have another piece of chocolate cake

(Piece of that thing on the plate)"

I'm being followed by a moonshadow

Moonshadow, moonshadow

Leaping and hopping on a moonshadow

MM theme: "Lockdown Song" - song, album, or genre of music

ROCK is what keeps me going and pushing forward

White Rabbit - Jefferson Airplane

For Macro Mondays music theme.

The album I have been listening to over and over is Spell Songs by Folk by the Oak, inspired by the book The Lost Words. There are songs to conjure up several birds: owl, goldfinch, kingfisher, heron and lark.

 

Created for Macro Mondays theme "Lockdown Song". This one is Times like these by The Foo Fighters.

It is our wedding anniversary today. I thought of doing this more colorful interpretation since there are a lot of challenging things going around in the world already. We have to remind ourselves to enjoy the simpler things in life and to always keep positive thoughts. :) HMM!!!

 

Marry You - Bruno Mars

It's a beautiful night, we're looking for something dumb to do

Hey baby, I think I wanna marry you

Is it the look in your eyes or is it this dancing juice?

Who cares, baby, I think I wanna marry you

Well, I know this little chapel on the boulevard we can go

No one will know, oh, come on girl

Who cares if we're trashed, got a pocket full of cash we can blow

Shots of patron and it's on, girl

Don't say no, no, no, no, no

Just say yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

And we'll go, go, go, go, go

If you're ready, like I'm ready

'Cause it's a beautiful night, we're looking for something dumb to do

Hey baby, I think I wanna marry you. :)

... that's why this is only a small glass (c. 2 inches)

Inspired by the Iron Maiden song "The Number Of The Beast"

#Lockdown #Macromondays

 

Woe to you, oh earth and sea, for

the devil sends the beast with wrath,

because he knows the time is short

 

let him who hath understanding

reckon the number of the beast

for it is a human number,

its number is six hundred and sixty six."

Happy Macro Monday to all flickr friends, HMM

Since last year I've been obsessed with this song.🎵 In my car, supermarket, home, everywhere. Looks like a lot of people like it, too. This is a GI Joe figure toy (head is the size of a dime) and two reading lights (the truck 🚚 lights).

 

~Days, months go by as we feel like we are at a dead end in this pandemic. But there is always a light at the end of the tunnel (just watch isn't a truck or a train). Will we be able to return to normal soon? Just time will tell.~

"Am Fenster

 

Einmal wissen, dieses bleibt für immer

Ist nicht Rausch, der schon die Nacht verklagt

Ist nicht Farbenschmelz noch Kerzenschimmer

Von dem Grau des Morgens längst verjagt

 

Einmal fassen, tief im Blute fühlen

Dies ist mein und es ist nur durch dich

Nicht die Stirne mehr am Fenster kühlen

Dann ein leben schwer vorrüber strich

 

Einmal fassen, tief im Blute fühlen

Dies ist mein und es ist nur durch dich

Klagt ein Vogel, acht auf mein Gefieder

Nässt der Regen, flieg ich durch die Welt

 

Flieg ich durch die Welt"

 

----------

 

Am Fenster ist ein Lied der Gruppe City. Es wurde 1974 von City komponiert und 1977 auf Schallplatte veröffentlicht. Arrangeur war Georgi Gogow, der Text stammt von Hildegard Maria Rauchfuß. Das Lied, welches ungewöhlicherweise auch mit einer Geige besetzt war, gilt als Klassiker der DDR-Rockmusik.

 

Mitten in der Pandemie sitzen wir also am Fenster und sehen hilflos dem Geschehen zu. Doch bald "fliegen" wir wieder durch die Welt.

  

Am Fenster is a song from the DDR group City. It was composed 1974. It's deemed to be a classic of DDR rock music.
