Rory, who’s blog, A Guy Called Bloke, is definitely one to add if you aren’t already aware of it, has posted a challenge. (actually it’s the third one, but I’ve been a bit lax). Click on the link to take part.

A song that you enjoy that isn’t in your own language? Sukiyaki by Kyu Sakamoto https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C35DrtPlUbc |
A great workout/exercise/activity song? Jump by The Pointer Sisters https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uyTVyCp7xrw Although there’s something about they way they are dressed in the video that reminds me of when my Aunts used to get up and dance at a family wedding after a few glasses of wine! |
A song that is almost hypnotic to listen to? Albatross by Fleetwood Mac – (This probably works for the next question too) I find the repeating bass so hypnotic and relaxing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fXeKi6ZkbOw&t=62s |
A song about animals? The Lion Sleeps Tonight – The Tokens. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZgI4DdINQLQ |
A really unusual song you love that isn’t well known by others? Yma Sumac – Bo Mambo https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yhUBJZdL8BY |
Hope you enjoyed that mix.
