Memory Monday.

Growing up I listened to a lot of different music. In the early years it was mostly ABBA, The Mamas & the Papas or The Carpenters (and I still know their songs by heart...).

I was a very - moody is probably not the best word to describe myself, but for now it has to do - teenager. All the music I listened to reflected my mood. And for some reason I was never quite happy in my teens...

The Cranberries
"Zombie" and "Linger" were my favorites


4 Non Blondes
"What's Up?"


Laura Branigan
I still listen to "Self-Control".

The Danish band Infernal made a cover of the song (a pretty good one).

Limahl
"Never Ending Story" is one of my all time favorite songs - but I'm sure that's connected with the movie....


Queen
"Bohemian Rhapsody" is to me one of the most beautiful songs in the world, but I like most of Queen's songs.


Wham
I know they made a lot of great songs, but the one people always seem to remember is "Last Christmas".


Sinead O’Connor
"Nothing Compares 2 U" is a given, but "Sacrifies" is brilliant as well (Elton John wrote it)

Labyrinth... Never Ending Story...

Movies with a fantasy theme. When I was younger, I loved them. (As do I today.)

So here's a few YouTube videos.
Kindda like a blast from the past.

Labyrinth.

David Bowie plays the Goblin King and Jennifer Connelly plays the teenage girl, Sarah, solving his labyrinth. The movie is about Sarah and her baby brother whom she accidentally wished away to the goblins. And how she's to get him back.

Never Ending Story.
I know this is more of a music video - but I love the song as well. And it's the same name as the movie and the book (written by Michael Ende).


So I found a video with the three main characters (Falkor the luckdragon, Atreyu and Bastian). I YYY Falkor.


Goblins and Dragons...
No wonder I love Harry Potter.
