#AtoZChallenge : Angel
What’s the A to Z Blogging Challenge? Well… we start the month off with the letter A and follow each day (except Sunday) with the next letter of the alphabet. When we reach April 30, we will be on letter Z. The challenge is a lot of fun and I’m hoping for a lot of interaction to take place here.
Here’s my plan:
Each day, I’ll pick a word to represent the letter of the alphabet. Then I’ll post 2 to 3 songs that have that word in the song title or lyrics. I’m then going to ask you to leave a message in the comments section songs that also use the specified word. Comments are set up so that there should not be any captcha and you should not have to sign in to anything to be able to comment. I do ask, though, that if you do comment anonymous, that you please include your name (and URL if you are a blogger).
I'm also doing a Giveaway during the month of April. Be sure to check that out.
But first - a few matters of business.

Okay! Are you ready to begin?
Here we go….
Today’s word is “Angel”
From Dictionary.com:
First up we have Shaggy ft. Rayvon with “Angel”
(This is not the video I wanted to use, but due to regional restrictions, and a whole slew of videos that had vocals mixed on low, my selections were very limited)
And here we have Aerosmith with their “Angel”
And my third selection is Juice Newton’s “Angel Of the Morning”
And that’s my 3 Angels for the day. Let’s see what Angel songs you come up with. Share in the comments.

ReplyDeleteThanks, Dave!
DeleteI just popped over to YouTube to give it a listen. It's been forever since I had heard this one.

Mary,
ReplyDeleteHow about 'Angel In Blue Jeans' by Train? I love the mewsic vid with Danny Trejo. :) Great start for this month's blogfest. Now, I'm heading off to vote in your newest BoTB!
I hope y'all will find time to check out my Little Mermaid Art Sketch series beginning with ARIEL on Curious as a Cathy!!
Happy A2Zing!!
Thanks, Cathy!
DeleteI do love me some Danny Trejo! I hadn't heard this song before either. I must admit - when the video starts out with Danny Trejo lip syncing - I almost couldn't take the video serious.
On my way over to catch your Ariel post now..

I'm sticking with Aerosmith! Though I do like Robbie Williams' "Angels" too

HI Duncan!
DeleteRobbie Williams Angels is a beautiful song. Thank you for sharing that one.
~Mary
Good selection and a great start to the A to Z! ☺ My pick is Angel by Jimi Hendrix
ReplyDeleteThanks, Debbie!
DeleteI had forgotten about Jimi's Angel. Please don't make me turn in my 'cool music' card!
~Mary
Clever theme! I'd have to say "Angel" by Madonna (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PDbHQA5I-Ok), from the years when I liked her.
ReplyDeleteThanks, John!
DeleteI love how this theme is interactive. I kind of 'borrowed' the idea from Robin. She did this a few years ago and I had so much playing along that I wanted to do it again this year. It's really too bad that Google has changed their features, as it would have been awesome to have the videos appear in the comments.

Hi Mary!
ReplyDeleteExcellent theme, interesting song choices! Hadn't heard the Aerosmith "Angel" in ages. Did I hear a bit of Newton's tune in Shaggy's rendition?
Let's see..."She talks to Angels" by The Black Crows or "Angels among us" by Alabama.
Thanks for the good thoughts!
Hey Diedre!
DeleteYou know, I hadn't noticed it before, but now that you mention it.. those first few notes in Shaggy's rendition do sound quite a bit like Newton's tune.
Black Crows and Alabama are great! Thanks for stopping by!
~Mary
Cool! Loving the theme. Aerosmith is a classic and who doesn't like a little Juice Newton. Shaggy is new to me but I like it.
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteAppreciate you stopping in with your 2 cents :) I pre-wrote all of my posts this past month, and to be honest - I can't even remember what I chose for tomorrow. It will be a surprise for us all! LOL
~Mary
Hi, great music and an interactive theme - you have my Admiration. :) My choice for an angel track - U2 If God will send his angels.
ReplyDeleteHow about Send me an Angel by Real Life. Enjoyed hearing Juice Newton - its been a long, long time.
ReplyDeleteGreat selection!
ReplyDelete"Wish I Had an Angel" by Nightwish.
"Dark Angel" by Gregorian.
"Angel" by Westlife.
I'm enjoying your theme -- even if I'm doing it a bit backwards :-)
