TRACK OF THE WEEK! (2020 ROUND 1) - Share your TUNES and WIN the post earnings!

Copy of track of the day.png

Well it sure has been a while lol! Some of you may remember "way back when" I used to run this weekly music contest. At the time it was called "track of the day". Honestly, I always did it because I loved discovering what other people listened to and increasing my own personal playlist from all the shares, so for that reason - I have decided to kick it off again!

2020 ROUND 1 (Closes 11am UTC 16th Jan)

WHAT YOU WIN

After 7 days I will decide which track I like the most! The winning track selected (by me) will win all the liquid earnings that this post accumulates and the confirmation of funds transfer will be shared in the following round.

HOW TO ENTER

All you have to do is share a link in the comments to a song that you are really enjoying at the moment - whether it is new or old it does not matter and neither does the music genre... whether you have loved it your entire life or just for a day is irrelevant! just NO personal promo links please! And please do not look at MY track genre selection as a guide to what you should or should not share... I have an incredibly eclectic taste in music and will no doubt continue to shock most of you as the weekly rounds unfold haha!

text16.png

Right! With the logistics out the way... let's get to it! Here is my track selection for this round... which is of no consequence really haha - but what fun would it be if I didn't get to share with you all as well!

YOUR TURN...

LET'S HEAR THOSE TRACKS PEEPS!

❤❤❤

Until next time...
Much Love from Cape Town, South Africa xxx

It's a hard choice since there are 3 tracks I've been listening to a lot... and I cannot decide which one is the best. So, this was pretty much a coin toss.

I'll go with Expellow, a Swiss Metalcore band... and the song is Game Insane:

A great track, with awesome lyrics too. 😈

For some reason... this reminds me a LOT of Rage Against the Machine. Just the right balance of "noise" and "composed" sound. Love it!

Nice share! I got to see Collective Soul a Summer or two back. They opened for Sammy Hagar. It was a pretty awesome show. The lead singer is all gray now, but he still had the voice. I will have to see what I can drum up for this challenge in the next week!

They really have got some really great singers for the Frozen songs! We rock out to it in the car every morning... although, I have to say... we don't quite sound quite as good... but at least the girls can hit the high notes!

"Grace"

We know that it's only human
We know that it's only love
We know that its far too close to home
To see it now

Love all we can before
We learn all we came for
Learn all we can before
The road leads to home

Grace, grace, grace, grace

High road warning
High road warning

Grace, grace, grace, grace (Say no more)

High road warning
High road warning

Laugh, love, live, learn
Laugh, love, live, learn

Eternal I, eternal I, eternal I, I, I

My child tells me
We are the fallen men
My child tells me
We are the fallen men

Laugh, love, live, learn
Laugh, love, live, learn

Oh my god

Grace, grace, grace, grace

Never fear love
(High)
Never fear love
(Road)
Never fear love
(Warning)

Never fear love
(High)
Never fear love
(Road)
Never fear love
(Warning)

We know that it's only human
We know that it's only love
Love, love, love, love, love, love, love
Love all we can

I know the way, and you know the way
We all fall down if we fear love

Never fear love
Never fear love
Never fear love
(Warning)

Never fear love
Never fear love
Never fear love

For you, I give you this perfect symphony of words and voice. Close your eyes and enjoy the feeling. I have to give this one a little volume.💖

I found a love for me
Darling just dive right in
And follow my lead
Well I found a girl beautiful and sweet
I never knew you were the someone waiting for me
'Cause we were just kids when we fell in love

Not knowing what it was I will not give you up this time But darling, just kiss me slow, your heart is all I own And in your eyes you're holding mine Baby, I'm dancing in the dark with you between my arms Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song When you said you looked a mess, I whispered underneath my breath But you heard it, darling, you look perfect tonight

Well I found a woman, stronger than anyone I know She shares my dreams, I hope that someday I'll share her home I found a love, to carry more than just my secrets To carry love, to carry children of our own We are still kids, but we're so in love Fighting against all odds I know we'll be alright this time Darling, just hold my hand Be my girl, I'll be your man I see my future in your eyes

Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, with you between my arms Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song When I saw you in that dress, looking so beautiful I don't deserve this, darling, you look perfect tonight

Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, with you between my arms Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song I have faith in what I see Now I know I have met an angel in person And she looks perfect I don't deserve this You look perfect tonight

One of the most beautiful songs in my collection. I'm old school from the 60s, and Jefferson Airplane and Grace is unique. It saddens me that commercialism has taken parts of the lyrics from great songs just to add a snippet to sell their products. This morning I walked by the tv and heard her beautiful voice.

Now I can't get the lyrics to WHITE RABBIT out of my head.

Dang, lots of really good competition. I know it's a Bob Dylan song, but this cover is what really made me have a new outlook and respect for Miley Cyrus. All of the crazy antics and shenanigans aside, she really has a great voice.
