The winter months can bring on cabin fever for many people and, many, also, feel the blues and think they are ready to go nuts. Others embrace winter and love being out in it and yet, others, take off to warmer climates, like my friends who are, right now, on a cruise before ending up in Florida for a couple of days. Monday Music Moves Me has the theme of Fever, cabin or actual and I went this route that, I hope, works with the theme…
1. DANCING WITH THE MOUNTAINS SUNG BY JOHN DENVER-1980
Leave it to John Denver to make winter warm and inviting. I can’t ski worth beans but I would love to walk there. I still miss John Denver who died so many years ago but I place him beside John Candy and Robin Williams for stars I miss.
2. 57 CHANNELS AND THERE’S NOTHIN’ ON SUNG BY BRUCE SPRINGSTEEN-1992
Many of us, work through winter and the cabin fever, by watching TV. I have watched quite a few movies and tv shows since the new year and enjoy watching them all. This song was written before we had way too many streaming channels out there. I found this song very true because there is so much repetition and useless crap on TV.
3. BRAIN DAMAGE SUNG BY PINK FLOYD-1973
This is one creepy song especially when that guy starts to laugh, who happens to be Naomi Watts’s father! I always thought this was and is a unique song that hits home for many people who feel they are going crazy all cooped up. My other friend, out in BC, says he needs his happy pills when there are too many blah days. I bet a few of you feel this way by the end of February:).
One more…
4. KOKOMO SUNG BY THE BEACH BOYS-1988
I love this song by the Beach Boys and we can all have a little dream being in a nice sunny area. My friends, 2 brothers, left Florida on a 5 day cruise to Bahamas and a couple other places. They do a cruise every year…I have yet to take one..lol.
What songs make you think of cabin fever or just having a fever.
