A few notes about the #20SongsByYear challenge, which starts again on October 1st:

1. Choose any year you like - even if you see others using the same year! We all have different tastes in music, so it's unlikely you'd totally repeat what someone else is doing.

2. If you...more below! ⬇️

It’s a bit of a mixed bag and doesn’t sound much like their music from the 60s. However, I like the majority of the songs on it.

And yes, it’s pretty awesome that they wrote and played all of the music on it! 😀🎶

Happy 29th Birthday to The Monkees' 1996 album reunion album JUSTUS!

This is my favorite song from it. This was written and sung by Davy Jones. His lead vocals on it are great.

I also love the background vocals by Micky Dolenz, Mike Nesmith, and Peter Tork. 🎶

A big THANK YOU to @olgalovesyuri.bsky.social & @geodrew.bsky.social for another fun month of their #ArtistFave15 challenge!

My artist for the month was Toto. This is a "bonus" song by them from their self-titled debut album - which was released 47 years ago today.

My artist this month was Toto. Until today, the songs I shared were in no order of preference.

However, my choice for the final day of this challenge is my top favorite song by Toto:

Day 15- TV/Movie Horror Theme

Who Made Who - AC/DC

This was the theme song of the 1986 film 'Maximum Overdrive,' that was written and directed by Stephen King.

Not a fantastic movie, but thankfully it featured several AC/DC songs in it. 🎶🎥🤘

10/15: Belial - Basket Case

Freak Me Out - Weezer

I know nothing about this character or movie, but the image Kimber used for this one freaked me out, so I thought this was a good song choice. 😁🎶🎧

My artist: Toto

In no order of preference:

Day 14/15: This track from their first album was released as a single only in the Netherlands. I think if it had been released everywhere, it could have been a huge hit. I've always loved it!

Rockmaker (1978)

For my fellow fans of Toto, check this out: it's the complete album of Toto IV (featuring Rosanna and Africa) - if it had been recorded in the 1950s!

P.S. - If you like this, check out other similar things on that YouTube channel. They do brilliant things like this regularly! 🎶
