Thanks to @revivalrecords for the sky high theme yesterday for #ThursdayFiveList 🦆
I'm sorry I couldn't join in, this week has been off the charts with things 😅
If you'd like to set the theme for a future week, drop me a DM to sort out a suitable week for you on the rota 🪄
All regular players are welcome, any server and starting next week, even if you've had a turn before, as I think we are starting to run out of new volunteers 🙏

This theme #BirdsOnTheWing for the #ThursdayFiveList made for a fun musical journey.
Edit: I just remembered a song that I *love* and that goes even better with my color scheme... I'm subbing "Bluebird" for "Blue Jay Way."

1. When Doves Cry / Quindon Tarver
(Music From The Motion Picture "William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet" 10th Anniversary, 2007)
This is a rather unusual take. It was not on the original soundtrack, but was one of the bonus tracks on the 2007 re-release. I like it.

2. Blackbird (Live) / Paul McCartney and *Wings* (emphasis mine)

3. White Bird / It's a Beautiful Day
I had totally forgotten about this song.

4. Bluebird / Buffalo Springfield

5. Yellow Bird / Sol3 Mio
It was a pleasure discovering this New Zealand trio of Samoan descent. The group is classically trained; one is a baritone and the other two are operatic tenors. Their genre is "operatic pop." They are very popular in NZ, evidently.

Today's #ThursdayFiveList with the theme #BirdsOnTheWing. Which I guess means bird/wings related songs?

I wonder if there's some horrible covers of Wind Beneath My Wings out there? Probably.

A Peter Murphy sandwich!

Kicking myself for forgetting XTC's Rook, because I haven't listened to Nonsuch in a million years, but now I remember and am basting myself in good-spirited nostalgia for a simpler time - here you go, enjoy: album.link/us/i/724439635

5. Annihilate the Sparrow, That Stealer of Seed, and Our Harvests Will Abound; We Will Watch Our Wealth Flood In - Red Sparowes
youtu.be/5XWuD6UsM9Y

Dang those postrock titles with so many words, that one song made me go over the character limit. It's based on a historical event, and as you may expect, no, wealth didn't flow in after eliminating the sparrows.

I've never done #ThursdayFiveList before, but I need everyone to know that Blackbird Raum's Adder exists. Don't even bother trying to do anything else while you listen to that song. Time will stop.
