Flashback Friday 

I've been blogging for 8yrs now (on & off) & thought it was time to 'Flashback' to the old days.

I still have my old original blog, but have it set to private for a few reasons, so linking from here won't work.

Anyway, I have decided that every Friday, I will repost one of my favourite posts from yesteryear.

Sunday Session - Cry

It's been a stressful few weeks here (with the house going up for sale, not knowing if I have to move & then R having his op). So the theme for Sunday Session this week is Cry.

It's good to have a cry now & again. It help us release, what we normally keep inside.

Here are 5 x songs with Cry/ing in the title. I hope you enjoy them.

Sunday Session - 1D

I have just been introduced to Sunday Session thanks to another blogger, Tina Gray. It's pretty much the same as Monday's Music Moves Me & Then Sings My Soul Saturday.

So what music have I been listen to lately? I've caught the 1D bug.

A loves 'What makes you beautiful'. He calls it the Kombi song, as there's a kombi n the clip.

Amazing Grace - Celtic Thunder

No words can express the sorrow & pain that those in Newtown CT are feeling today. We can only wonder why. Why someone would do this? Why children?

Christmas will not be a celebration or those who have lost loved ones. My thoughts are with those who have lost family & friends.

Fly Free Little Angels. May the Lord have bigger & better plans for you in Heaven.

Today would have been my Nanna's 97th Birthday. Although she has been gone for 20yrs, I still miss her so deeply.

I'm not a fan of Delta Goodrem, but heard her new song during a TV show promo & thought of my Nanna.

I hope you enjoy Wish You Were Here.

Monday's Music Moves Me - International Music

A while ago, I used to watch SBS PopAsia on a Sunday morning. It was the only music show on TV on a Sunday, after Video Hits was axed.

Sure, I couldn't understand the songs, but the beat & music wasn't so bad.

Since I've been living alone, my Sunday mornings are now a wash of Peppa Pig & Thomas the Tank engine.

Monday's Music Moves Me - Turn The Radio Up

I'm an 80's freak, so anything 80's is my type of music.

They are my Monday's Music Moves Me - Turn The Radio Up songs.

In tribute to the passing of Whitney Houston (well, mainly because a Music TV show was playing her songs), I thought I'd include on of her songs in this week's Then Sings My Soul Saturday.

I hope you enjoy Step by Step by Whitney Houston
