J IS FOR J-names

FonDip Temmuz 21, 2022

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.

You guys (with some exceptions) struggled a bit more with yesterday's word, If, than I'd have liked. I suppose it was bound to happen. (Just wait until we get to X and Z... whooey!) Anyway, here are the songs you thought of with If in the title:

Michele: If by Bread

Ericka: If You Leave by OMD

Mary (who rocked this keyword!): If I Were A Boy by Beyonce

and If I Were A Rich Man from Fiddler on the Roof

and If Tomorrow Never Comes by Garth Brooks

Stephen T. McCarthy: If You Leave Me Now by Chicago

Jeffrey: If I Had A $1,000,000 by Barenaked Ladies

Andrea: If I Could Turn Back Time by Cher

Alex (who just ditched the keyword and went with "I"...ha!): Illumination Theory by Dream Theater

Robyn: If I Can't Have You by The Bee Gees

Debbie The Doglady: If You Could Read My Mind by Gordon Lightfoot

ABFTS: Scat Me If You Can by Scatman John

D.G. Hudson: If I Didn't Care by The Inkspots

Dixie: If I Were A Carpenter by Tim Hardin

Rosey: If You Asked Me To by Celine Dion

Mich: If I Had A Heart by Fever Ray

Robin (yes, me again): If I Die Young by The Band Perry

and If Everyone Cared by Nickelback and If I Didn't Know Any Better by Alison Krauss

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?

We're going to do something different with the letter J. For those of you who've read this blog for some time, you know that people with names beginning with "J" feature prominently in my life. Turns out, lots of songs are out there with names that begin with "J." Any song with a name that begins with "J" goes. I think there are so many of these that you can post two right from Go.

I present to you....Just Like Jesse James by Cher.

You can comment with a song or embed the video by copy/pasting the code in the search bar. Thanks for playing along!

Special thanks to Arlee Bird and the A to Z team who make this possible!
