California Dreamin’ – Soundtrack Saturday

The Mamas and The Papas – 1965
All the leaves are brown…
and the sky is gray….
I’ve been for a walk on a winter’s day….
I’d be safe and warm if I was in LA
California dreaming on such a winters day.
Stopped into a church I passed along the way….
Well I got down on my knees and I begin to pray….
Let this pandemic please go away…..
California dreaming on such a winter’s day…..

#Once in A Blue Moon – Soundtrack Saturday

Let your photos and music tell your story.

A little midnight soul music for Halloween…..
Blue moon….
You saw me standing alone….
You saw me saying a prayer for….someone I really could care for….
And then there suddenly appeared before me….
The only one my arms will ever hold….
I heard somebody whisper please adore me…..and when I looked the moon had turned to gold…..
Blue moon, now I’m no longer alone……without a dream in my heart, without a love of my own.
The Bride of Frankenstein and Mr. Bones – together for all eternity.
Happy Halloween – watch out for ghosts!

A second full moon in the same month is referred to as a blue moon. This only happens once every 2 or 3 years, hence the expression once in a blue moon meaning rarely, and only every 19 years does it occur on Halloween night. Tarot card readers say a blue moon signifies change and according to medieval folklore it foretold that something impossible or absurd was about to happen – as if we needed anything else this year – so stay tuned!  

Hold onto your hats folks – it’s going to be a bumpy ride!
