My 2025 A to Z Theme?
Essentially I don't really have a theme for this go around. Haven't thought about it much and now I'm thinking of theme as more of an afterthought. I'm going to wing it I guess. But these days I do a lot of that. I might try to keep some kind of gimmick going which involves three word titles where all three words begin with the letter of the day. Maybe I'll keep that up or maybe I'll just throw up my hands and abandon that idea. Who knows? I'm going to just go as I go and hopefully have a good time with it all. Hope you do too!
Battle of the Bands
Battle of the Bands is the blogging event started by Far Away Series and now hosted by StMcC Presents Battle of the Bands. This event happens each month on the 15th and on some there is also a Battle on the 1st of the month. My blog is one of those with a second Battle excepting over these summer months. The premise is simple: Listen to the songs presented below and then in the comments vote for your favorite and tell us why you liked it. Then visit the links listed near the bottom of this post for more Battle action.
Themes
Since I'm on the topic of themes I'm going to Battle two songs that are "themes" or have the word "theme" in their titles. The first is one of my "biggies" from my Lee's Basement series. The second is a biggie from the hit charts that you all probably know well. Which do you prefer?
Wichita Fall "Schubert's Theme" (1969)
This song was one of my favorites from the Wichita Fall album that I used to enjoy after my friends had gone home after a night of partying and I was alone in my basement still coming down from a psychedelic trip. I was listening to a lot of music by classical composer Schubert back then so this song stood out even though it doesn't sound much like anything by the classical master. But I think it's a fun song...
Okay, back off the dance floor and into your seats! It's time for a Battle of the Bands! You're supposed to vote on one of these songs. Which one do you prefer? Battles are no fun without you the reader participating. Hopefully you have an opinion of some kind. You don't have to know about music to have an opinion since it all comes down to your own personal taste.
Please vote on your favorite by letting us know your choice in the comment section and tell us why you prefer the version you chose. Then after you've finished here, please visit the other blogs listed below who may or may not be participating this time around. And if you've put up your own BOTB contest let us know that as well so we can vote on yours. I don't know if anyone else will be doing a Battle this time around, but you can still check out these sites.
Here are some other places where you might find BOTB posts:

'Curious as a Cathy'
Sound of One Hand Typing
Jingle, Jangle, Jungle
I actually like visiting blogs with a random theme! It keeps me checking to see what's posted. There are a few themes I have no interest in, and while I will comment a couple of times, I don't read them all, A to Z.
ReplyDeleteRandom topics sounds like a fun way to go.

For sure, "Love's Theme" for me. Barry White was a big man with a big heart and brought that to everyone.
ReplyDeleteI like them both, but Love's Theme is just TOO well known to not vote for it. And it is a beautiful melody.

Both songs would make great soundtracks. Gotta go with Barry White though.
ReplyDeleteGood luck winging it. I did that the first year and my posts were all over the map.
