Listening To Music On The Move
Introduction I have had some issues with phones dying on me, using backup phones and eventually landing up with my Google Pixel 4XL. Since I got it I have not actually listened to any music on it even though I have some excellent wireless earphones/buds. I did load some music on for when I was going to use it but when I was walking I just didn’t bother listening to anything.

I love listening to music, music takes us to places we never knew existed, to our most profound trenches of the heart and to the highest dreams we can imagine. So here I'm going to share with you my top 12 favourite songs of mine
The Memes Of Ruby And The Mystery Cats
I have only met Caroline Wilkinson once, she was performing at the Cluny 2 playing an Iggy Pop song but she is also Ruby of Ruby and the Mystery Cats, a red hot rockabilly rock and roll combo vaguely located around Tyneside.

The human condition. Why is it that we always remember the very best things and the very worst things? Like I guarantee that as you read this, you can remember the best sex you ever had and perhaps a little smile came over you as you flashed back to how it felt. And you can remember the worst sex you ever had too - and that memory probably has you dying with laughter, and maybe even questioning why you slept with that person. You might remember the best meal you ever had as well as the worst meal you ever had. Or the best and worst kiss, hotel stay, movie you saw and more. This can be applied to just about everything.

A slender, wide-eyed young man springs onto the stage of the Park West Theater in Chicago and spirals into a double-pirouette pencil turn. Painted white from head-to-toe, the movement of his frame resembles that of a flower petal whipped up by a breeze. But Corey Bishop, is in fact a Greek Statue and prompted by a musical cue, he transitions to a rhythmic staccato routine demonstrating great physical strength and attentiveness to his precise pantomimes. Suddenly he freezes and reaches for a curtain which he quickly peels away revealing a naked Mona Lisa. In a flutter, the 24 year-old actor collapses sharply to the stage floor where he is veiled in a curtain of black lace.
Disco Covers of Classic Songs
Disco music became all the rage in 1974 and remained extremely popular through 1979. The majority of these disco hits were originals such as "Last Dance" by Donna Summer" and "Stayin'" Alive" by The BeeGees. But to be certain there were tons of songs on the dance charts that were remakes of classic rock and pop songs. Here we explore some of those Disco Covers of Classic Songs.

Before I begin, it's important to mention that my birthday is the day before Halloween. It is also important to mention, that I absolutely love the "Horror" genre, and believe Halloween songs should actually be included in the selection of songs chosen for a Halloween party.

When I hear graveyard smash, my first thought is of the music at the Halloween party the kids' parents went to in Disney's Hocus Pocus. This playlist though, contains music different than what we've been accustomed to over the years, the '90s especially. Music and horror have evolved, and the slow, dark and heavy beats that follow reflect just that. These songs are sure to get you moving, ladies and vamps, so grab your tequila and turn this up underneath the moon. Happy Halloween ya freaks!

When I think of hosting the ultimate Halloween party, I instantly think about the music that should be played. Music can make or break a party, and this is very true for a Halloween party. The music is what helps set the mood as well as the way the location of the party looks. For example, if the party is in a graveyard, songs that are low in tone and spooky are perfect to set the mood.

With Halloween, it is a time to embody your wild and mischievous side, as this playlist is meant to encourage. This selection is a myriad of rock, and other genres that will make people want to dance at a late night Halloween party. My first song,"black sheep" by "Clash at Demonhead", is inspired by that feeling of wanting to become the guitar; become the vibrations of the chords, as you feel the tempo climbing. I want people to feel inclined to party, in their favourite, most empowering costume. That's why my next song is from a superhero movie, with relatively no lyrics. People create the words with their dancing, and essentially create their own lyrics, from the beat. The third song, is a classic by Iron Maiden, "fear of the dark". The title may be enough, to invoke a spooky feeling, but the album art acheives this even better. The fourth song is about "ghosting", referring to when someone doesn't show romantic interest in you anymore, and ignores your text messages...indefinitely. That is rather scary to some people...ha ha. But I chose the song, specifically to further the dancing mood, because it has a playful edge. Then this leads into the next high intensisty rock song, Zombie, by the Cranberries. This, I find, is oddly empowering. It's not just a great song to rock out to. Telling people that they are acting like zombies, is a way of subtly bringing down the vibe of my playlist. To make people think for a moment, and stop behaving like a sluggish zombie, if they are. So that they can truly enjoy themselves, and have a great Halloween. I also like that in the music video, there are unique outfits, and body paint, which I think more Halloween costumes should look like. Like they are showing off a work of art. So, as the playlist dipped in tempo for this song, it rises again with the sixth masterpiece. This is a personal favourite of mine, from the movie "The Corpse Bride", called "remains of the day". Tim Burton's unique animation style, has an interesting affect on me. Because the animation can feel creepy, and simultaneoulsy not creepy at all. This is a funny song, and great to force out certain dance moves, that you didn't know you would think about expressing. The next song is by "The Smashing Pumpkins". Their song, "tonight, tonight", has a romantic quality to it, other then the theme of the music video. Although the smashing pumpkins are formally known as an alternative rock band, this has a romantic feeling to it. But I don't necessarily see the meaning of this song is as an ode to romantic couples. People can feel this way by themselves, or with friends, when the night and the stars are so beautiful, that it brings romantic feelings out in you. That's how I want people to experience Halloween through this song, it's a special day, and night. My final song, is actually a female cover, of the song "this is halloween" from the movie "The Nightmare Before Christmas". This was an unexpected version to find, and just like Halloween, new and unexpected experiences/situations can arise, because people are being a bit more adventurous and playful. Or letting their imagination roam, creates a new and unexpected experience. I hope to be able to play this for people I know, because I think it is something that inspires people to let go of old habits. Halloween is a time period when the veil between the invisible world, and the visible world, thins. People actually have purported seeing ghosts around this time, and connecting with them. Everything can change on this day/night, when you are simply aware of the possibility that ghosts might reveal themselves to you.

I'll be the first to admit I'm an absolute scardey-cat. I, for one, cannot handle any type of suspense or gore. I do my best to make it through your typical Blaire-Witch-Esque movie, but I almost always end up watching it through the cracks in my fingers.
