| Twisted Mix Tape Tuesday Blog-The 60's |
This week on Twisted Mix Tape Tuesday the theme is a mix
tape for a friend IN the 60’s based on any theme…so I, being the huge movie
freak that I am, thought that I would do a little time travel and base this blog on the movie the Big Chill
with a little bit of National Lampoon’s Animal House thrown in just for some
Toga wearin’ fun! I know...I TOTALLY broke the rules here but what can I say...this blog hop is so HARD to play by the rules! Thanks again Jen Kehl
@ http://jenkehl.com for inviting all of us music freaks to this magnificent
music inspired Blog Hop! OK…so here we go:
I Heard It Through the Grapevine-Marvin Gaye-This is the opening
song for the movie and of course the California Raisin Song! Makes me want to groove either way!
Ain’t Too Proud To Beg-The Temptations-This song makes me
want to also swing my hips around my kitchen while I am cleaning up after a
huge meal…I am no Glen Close but I can get my “dance on” with the best of them!
You Can’t Always Get What You Want-The Rolling Stones-How
appropriate is this song for this scene?
You be the judge…SPOILER ALERT…I don’t think that this is legal do you?
You Make Me Feel Like
a Natural Woman-Aretha Franklin-This song is of course from the love scene
between Harold and Meg…this song just makes me want to SING the chorus line at
the top of my lungs for all to hear! Aretha is the real deal…
Twistin’ The Night Away-Sam Cooke-This is an Animal House
classic and of course since I love Sam Cooke this HAD to make this list!
So I HAD a ton more to put on this list BUT I thought that I
would just stick to the top 5 and mention that you can listen to ALL of the
great songs from the Big Chill at the following link:
So now everyone just has to go watch the Big Chill and then swing on over and give Dean Wormer some crap over at the
Animal House if you are feeling up to it…this is quite the mixture of 60’s
musical magic fellow bloggers! Happy Listening!
What am I listening to as I pen this
bloggary: Sittin’ On The Dock of the Bay,
by Otis Redding
I love that you did a Movie Soundtrack! The Big Chill had some of the best songs ever. I used to listen to that soundtrack over and over. Come back next week and get your groove on with more 60's and a new theme!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this soundtrack! I had a hard time putting down my top 5 but now that you told that there is a part II next week? Well...hey...NOW! You just made my week! ;)
DeleteThe Soundtrack is just too cool... Love Aretha. Enjoyed, Slu
ReplyDeleteI KNOW that song is classic BUT her voice (when she belts out the chorus line) is such the REAL DEAL...I know that when I belt it out all I hear is the wailing call of police sirens and of course a couple of scared dogs but hey...when you sing with Aretha you gotta SING with Aretha! ;)
DeleteI love and own that soundtrack, even though I've never seen the movie. Amazing take on the 60s theme!
ReplyDeleteYou HAVE to see the movie...it is a tear jerker...so bring a lot of Kleenex!
DeleteHey I love that you included "You make me feel like a natural woman!" I'd forgotten all about that song and now it's playing happily in my head. Thanks so much for that - smiling huge now.
ReplyDeleteOh I know...I was checking my links out to see if they worked and I had that song in my head all night long! I am not complaining...not complaining at all here! Aretha is AWESOME! :)
DeleteI love that movie and always my first thought about it is poor Kevin Bacon's cut scene! lol
ReplyDeleteThat movie is just a classic...the sound track is just as good if not better! I had such a hard time picking my top 5 and then I HAD to throw in Animal House! That movie is just hilarious! ;)
DeleteOMG I loved this tape soooo much! I bought it at a yard sale and listened to it all the time. Thanks for the memories and linking up at The Owl's Skull!! Jess
ReplyDeleteThanks for the invite! I am soooo glad that I could bring you back in time...Jen is going to be so proud that she was our muse here! ;)
DeleteWhat a fun idea! I Love Otis...
ReplyDeleteThanks for hooking up tot the Hump Day Hook Up
Otis is amazeballs! Thanks for inviting me to the blog hop...I look forward to another invite! :)
DeleteWatching (or listening) to The Big Chill takes me back to a really sweet place. I'm going to be replaying these songs all day in my mind.
ReplyDeleteI am sooooo glad that someone besides me LOVES this song/movie! I LOVE this entire soundtrack...it ROCKS!
DeleteI am with you in the whole listening to the Temptations as I woefully wash the dishes...it makes the task so much easier! ;)
ReplyDeleteGREAT songs! I'm a new follower, your blog is so fun!
ReplyDeleteKallie, But First Coffee Blog
Thanks for following! I am glad that you liked my musical pics...stay tuned for part II next week! YAY!!!!
DeleteTwo of my all time favorite movies - and sing-a-longs! Now that you have put it in my head, I must listen...my kids are going to be so annoyed this afternoon! :)
ReplyDeleteOh Kim...I am hoping that your kids LOVED their whole ride home with Aretha blaring in their ear! That visual is PRICELESS!HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!
