Music To Inspire You
Welcome To Music Moves Me!
Songs That Tell A Story
This week I’m honored to be the Spotlight Dancer at Music Moves Me – a music meme where you’re invited to share your favorite songs! My theme for the week is Songs That Tell A Story. I’ve chosen that theme to encourage you to share songs that resonate with you because you relate to the characters and theme of the song!
My first two songs – Fast Car by Traci Chapman and Living On A Prayer by Bon Jovi – resonate because no matter who we are and what our circumstances, we often struggle and dream of a better life. My third song – Because He Lives – tells the greatest story of all – the story of everlasting hope.
Enjoy the music and have a fabulous week!
Traci Chapman – Fast Car
Jon Bon Jovi – Living On A Prayer (Unplugged)
David Chowder Band – Because He Lives
Thanks for joining us – have an amazing week!
Inspire Me Monday #193 – Week Of September 13, 2015
I like the idea of Inspiration Monday.
Monday’s often get the short end of the stick
But they are fraught with potential!
