Aww Monday
Monday’s Music Moves Me
The theme this week at 4M is songs about animals. While Lucy is the subject of the Aww Monday post, I will spare you the experience of listening to “How Much is That Doggie in The Window”. You’re welcome.
First up this week is a song about a dog. Everybody thought Ol’ Red was the best tracking hound in the state, but someone found a way to distract this canine from his primary job.
Reaching even further back into the country charts is a song I remember my dad liking when I was just a youngster. Eddy Arnold was a country singer with the voice of a pop crooner like Sinatra. The song, “Tennessee Stud”.
This last song has a local story behind it. When we moved to Bentonville, Arkansas in 1987 the local high school mascot was the tiger. I don’t remember what college march was being used as the school fight song, but by 1990 a song from Rocky III became the new fight song for the school and continues to this day, “Eye of the Tiger”. Have a blessed week.

Lucy is funny. She looks like she isn’t sure she wanted to have her photo taken. Love the pillow she is sitting next to.

Lucy thinks she’s pretty special when she has been groomed. Of course, she’s right.

Lucy is so at ease in this photo (and, once again, Queen of the House). I knew the third song, not the other two. I really enjoyed Tennessee Red; I love Eddie Albert’s voice.

I was very tempted to post “How Much is That Doggie in The Window”. Maybe next time.

The doggie in the window song is usually good for a smile or two, a bit of nostalgia.
Lucy is just so beautiful!

Yes, “How Much is That Doggie in The Window” is a throwback to a much simpler time in America.

Driller,
All I kept thinking was Blake sure does look young here! I’m so glad he cut his hair. lol He’s a very talented singer/songwriter and enjoy his presence on The Voice. He’s my favorite judge on the show. “Eye of the Tiger” is a fight song for a lot of teams from what I gather. I never knew this until recent years, too. Nice picks this week! Oh yeah, give Lucy a pat on the head and tell her her I said, she’s really pretty.

I was thinking the same thing about Blake. I’ll give Lucy a pat on the head but she already knows she’s a good looking canine. Have a blessed week.

The love seat on the patio is one of Lucy’s favorite places to hang out. She enjoys watching me mow the yard from her perch.

The doggie’s face is priceless. Am not so much for country music, one of the things I as a Dutchman(woman) never have gotten used to. Have a great Wednesday:)
