Get Up and Move!

It doesn’t matter if you get up and dance or if you listen while running on a treadmill. Hell, you can even listen while doing some serious chair dancing!

The point is this … It’s Wednesday and this midweek medley was put together for the purpose of bringing you music memories while you do a little moving!

Memories … That’s What We’re All About

Get Up and Move!

    Quite an eclectic mix today. ELO was a great way to start any day and the full version was appreciated by this sleepy head. The Beatles have the ability to dial it up or down at will and today the dial was definitely in the UP position. Skynyrd has no choice but to do some quick stepping, no matter what time it is. The happy sounds of the Lovin’ Spoonful makes any day a good day. Local boy Jim Croce had such a special talent for telling interesting stories, peopled with unique characters. He is still missed. Tom Petty, another great storyteller, such a laid back style. Today is starting off as a great day! Thanks for a wonderful set.

      Thanks, Don. I’m glad you enjoyed the medley. It was one of those medleys where I didn’t feel I could go wrong. 🙂
      ROCK ON, BRO

    Ray, you had me with the ELO right off the bat! This was a great mix that you had chosen for us. I loved all the songs and yes I was dancing the entire time, much to the chagrin of the cats, they spent their time staying out of my way or trying. Lol I’m ready for some more Jumpin music is soon as you’re ready to start playing it. This was great thanks so much for a wonderful way to start the day! ❤️

      Sandy, I could play ELO all day!
      I’m sure the cats had a blast watching you dance 🙂
      Rock On, Young Lady!

      Thank you, Wendyl ❤️
      I did assume you would enjoy these since I took the songs straight off your “Wendy’s Mix” list. 🙂
      See you later!

      Your comments were very “moving” and I’m so glad you enjoyed the music.
      Rock this day and make the most of it ❤️

    The moves in this medley were about moving in and out of relationships, putting the “moves” on and moving forward
    Probably should appreciate Tom Petty more than I do
    Thanks for moving us over the Wednesday hump with the love you send to us through music

      Thanks, Mary Helen.
      I can’t speak for you, no would I ever tell you who you should listen to, but if I did, I would say that you should definitely listen to more of Mr. Petty. He had a band for the ages and the man could flat out write lyrics. But I can’t speak for you, no would I ever tell you who you should listen to. 🙂 🥰

    Dancing to the music! A happy way to work out the winter blahs. What would we do without you!

      If you were dancing, Donna, then my plan worked! 🥰

    Love it! Love it!! can’t go wrong with any of these .. don’t bring me down, she don’t care!! – perfect!!! Shakin like a leaf on a tree, do you believe in magic (as far as I am concerned, music is magic 🙂 ) Who knows where Jim Croce would have gone with his music had his life not been cut!! Finish off with TP and the Heartbreakers!!!
    You ALWAYS put together great medleys Mr DJ Man!!
    Now off to see what’s for dinner and catch up on weather as they have increased our risk for severe weather tomorrow … UGH!!
    Have a great and safe evening my friend!!!

      Thanks, Penny 🥰
      As always, I’m so glad you enjoyed it! We have some severe weather in the forecast, too. Warmer temps (around 60) but LOTS of rain so there is a flood watch in effect.
      STAY SAFE!

      Fred, we will be warm tomorrow. A high of 62 is in the forecast but a lot (a LOT) of rain. A flood watch alert has been posted.
