If I post a single song from Meatloaf’s “Bat Out of Hell” album, I feel like I should post every song from the album since they’re all so interconnected. But instead, I’ll just post a few of the album’s biggest tracks instead of a single song I usually do for “Music Monday”. (And as a […]

Music Monday – “So sing to me/Your sweet song/Saskatchewan/Where I belong”
“Saskatchewan” – Zachary Lucky
Music Monday – “You feed your addiction/With your crystal meth/And I plea for your life/As it takes you to your death”
“Broken Window Serenade” – Whiskey Myers
Music Monday – “I have lost my way/But I hear tell/About a heaven in Alberta/Where they’ve got all hell for a basement”
These aren’t my photos but I thought this montage of Alberta shots – in all its natural beauty and manmade ugliness – was appropriate with the big election coming up tomorrow. “All Hell For A Basement” – Big Sugar
Music Monday – “The world’s in trouble/There’s no communication/And everyone can say what they want to say/It never gets better anyway”
“Bad Reputation” – Joan Jett
Music Monday – “There’s the progress we have found (when the rain)/A way to talk around the problem (when the children reign)/Building towered foresight (keep your conscience in the dark)/Isn’t anything at all (melt the statues in the park)/Buy the sky and sell the sky and bleed the sky and tell the sky”
This song is usually interpreted as being about acid rain but on the day Saskatchewan (and three other provinces) has a federal carbon tax enacted, I thought it was appropriate… “Fall On Me” – R.E.M.
Music Monday – “My heart’s like an open book/For the whole world to read/Sometimes nothing keeps me together/At the seams”
Shea and I watched “The Dirt“, the new Netflix Motley Crue biopic this weekend. Lots of songs that were a soundtrack to my high school years for sure including this one… “Home Sweet Home” – Motley Crue
Music Monday – “So needless to say/I’m odds and ends/I’ll be stumbling away/Slowly learning that life is OK/Say after me/It’s no better to be safe than sorry
I don’t normally add a lot of my own thoughts to Music Monday posts but wow, hearing this song that I loved as a kid (yes, the innovative video was a big part of that!) slowed down and done acoustically really makes it heartbreaking and adds a feeling of nostalgia (in multiple ways) that the […]
Music Monday – “Another summer wasted in the Battlefords/On a banana seat bike with a hockey card in the spokes”
“Battlefords” – Hawksley Workman
