W IS FOR WANT

For each letter of the A to Z, I'm going to give you a KEYWORD. You post in the comments a song with that word in the title. I will give you one to start (along with a video). If you like, you can go to YouTube and embed your video in the comments, so that readers can also listen to your song. No repeats and only post one song so that everyone can participate. If you're just brimming with songs, come back in a few days and lay it on me! If you want to see who else is participating in the A to Z click here.

Yesterday's keyword, Valley, turned out to be harder than I anticipated. I never know exactly how it will play out because you guys always think of songs 1) I've never heard, or 2) I forget about until you post them. The wonderful thing about this entire A to Z experience is seeing how varied all of our musical taste is. Anyway, here are the songs you thought of with Valley in the title:

Michele: Harper Valley PTA by Jeannie C. Riley

Mary: Valley Girl by Frank Zappa (Holli echoes this choice!)

Rosey: Valley of Neptune by Jimi Hendrix

Ericka: Lady of the Valley by White Lion

Jeffrey: The Valley Road by Bruce Hornsby and the Range

Alex: Valley of the Kings by Blue Murder

Stephen T. McCarthy: Red River Valley by The Sons of the Pioneers

Andrea: The Valley of Malls by Fountains of Wayne

Arlee: (Theme From) Valley of the Dolls by Dionne Warwick

Debbie: Pleasant Valley Sunday by The Monkees

Mich: Lonesome Valley by O Brother, Where Art Thou?

Pinku-Sensei: In the Valley by Midnight Oil

 

 

If you can think of more songs from previous letters and WANT to post them now, feel free to go back and add them:)

It's a new day and a new letter!

What is the KEYWORD?

Notice how much easier you've got it today! You better LOVE THIS WORD TO DEATH, because it's X, Y, Z from here. So, buckle in. You can use variations. In this case, wants, wanted, wanting.

I present to you.... How Bad Do You Want It by Tim McGraw.



You can comment with a song insert the video by copy/pasting the link in the search bar. You can give me two songs for this word right from Go. Thanks for playing along!
