"The Waiting"

09 Oct 2019 6 15 324
I think the lady is 'waiting' for someone :-) For 'Sight and Sound' this, of course, leads me to think of "The Waiting" by Linda Ronstadt :-) "The Waiting" was written by Tom Petty. It is the opening track on Linda's 1995 album "Feels Like Home" :-) Added to Sight and Sound : Pictures & Music ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ Listen here (Live on Letterman 21 March 1995) ~ The Waiting ~ Linda Ronstadt ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ Or, listen here (Studio Recording, Stunning Photos) ~ The Waiting ~ Linda Ronstadt

Racing in the Street

28 Aug 2019 7 14 363
The song that comes to mind here is Bruce Springsteen's "Racing in the Street". One of my all-time fave songs. But, on this occasion, I have chosen a cover version by Serena Ryder 'cos I absolutely love Serena's version :-) Added to Sight and Sound : Pictures & Music ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ Listen here ~ Racing in the Street ~ Serena Ryder Also, love the understated guitar playing by the guy. I was going to say that I couldn't see him being credited in this YouTube post which would be very wrong! However, looking at the comments there is mention of a John Kengla. Need to check him out!

Steps of Weston Library in Oxford

21 Jul 2019 4 12 242
When I was in Oxford I was thinking of coming up with a 'books' link for 'Sight and Sound'. "I am a Rock" by Simon & Garfunkel includes the lines - I have my books And my poetry to protect me When I saw the guy sitting on the steps of the Weston Library I thought "that's the photo I need". And, just as I pressed the shutter this lady rode by :-) The guy got up and walked away before I could take another shot! I'm afraid we'll just have to stick with this photo :-) Added to Sight and Sound : Pictures & Music ♫ ♪ ♫ ♪ Listen here ~ I am a Rock ~ Simon & Garfunkel

"You've Got A Friend"

Looks like I've got a friend :-) Added to ~ Sight and Sound ♫ ♪ ♪ ♫ Listen here ~ You've Got A Friend ~ Carole King

"Pushbike Song"

17 Oct 2015 21 26 603
"The Pushbike Song" by The Mixtures seems a logical choice for 'Sight and Sound'. With all due respect to The Mixtures I don't think I will be adding this track to my music collection anytime soon :-)) Added to ~ Sight and Sound ♫ ♪ ♪ ♫ Listen here ~ The Pushbike Song ~ The Mixtures

"Wait For Me"

21 Jun 2015 17 28 728
~ Explored! ~ Thank you very much :-))) I'm sure the guy with the flowers is texting the lady on the bicycle saying "Hey, please wait for me I have some flowers for you" :-) Therefore, this could easily link to Bob Seger's - Hey, please....."Wait For Me"..... I have some flowers for you :-) Added to ~ Soundtrack to Life Listen here ♫ ♪ ♪ ♫ ~ Wait For Me ~ Bob Seger

"Hold On"

06 Jun 2015 13 26 594
Sinking fast at the mo :-) In the meantime, here is one of my more obscure links :-) This lady is holding on to the handlebars. So, 'Hold On' by Alabama Shakes seems a link I can get away with...............please :-) Added to ~ Soundtrack to Life Listen here ♫ ♪ ♪ ♫ ~ Hold On ~ Alabama Shakes

"Homeward Bound"

28 Feb 2015 17 11 597
I don't expect the non-photogenic metal barriers to stay here in Broad Street for very long but I think they make a not too distracting background....easily pleased I am :-) Not too many days left before we go to see Simon & Garfunkel......well, not them in person but to see the 'The Simon & Garfunkel Story' :-) Leads me to think this young lady is 'Homeward Bound' :-) Added to ~ Soundtrack to Life Listen here ~ Homeward Bound ~ Simon & Garfunkel
