#FebMusicChallenge25 Relax in the bath I suppose I’d have either a Frank Sinatra one or a Joni Mitchell one- still thinking.

#FebMusicChallenge25 The last time I saw Richard by Joni Mitchell.

So glad someone posted this as it was almost mine!

To relax in the bath I'd like to listen to 'A Drifting Up' by Jon Hopkins.
For a song with a story I don't think you can do very much better than 'Matty Groves' by Fairport Convention.

dannynic.bsky.social•17 days ago

Relaxing in the bath with Universe and U by KT Tunstall. And the epic storytelling of Telegraph Road by Dire Straits #febmusicchallenge25

alienwife99.bsky.social•17 days ago

Oh now that’s a story and a half - one of my very favourite songs.

andrewmoffat.bsky.social•16 days ago

#FebMusicChallenge25 @grahamandre.bsky.social something by Fleetwood Mac written by Stevie Nicks - Dreams or Gypsy or Sara.

lacrapule.bsky.social•17 days ago

Happy Sunday, all. My #FebMusicChallenge25 choices are from an album which tells a whole story from beginning to end. It's an absolute favourite and probably in my desert island eight.

dickie-dunn.bsky.social•17 days ago

Love an intelligent concept album! If you like this try Exit Strategy by The Clockworks from 2023, a similar idea of a story from start to finish.

mscharteach.bsky.social•16 days ago

Story song and also probably relaxing in the bath (can't imagine that one, I'm an in and out as quick as possible person!): Wires by Athlete #FebMusicChallenge25

misscleveland.bsky.social•17 days ago

I do read in the bath, and pop Ludovico Einaudi on. His Earth Prelude is particularly relaxing https://youtu.be/9-ZVeAKYNLk?si=vFIHK4s7a5p9GVos
#FebMusicChallenge25

mrsgcornwall.bsky.social•17 days ago

Perfect choice!

misscleveland.bsky.social•17 days ago

For a song that tells a story, Stan by Eminem. https://youtu.be/gOMhN-hfMtY?feature=shared

#FebMusicChallenge25 how about this for a bath time song?

https://youtu.be/oiwYY2F7rik

deputynew.bsky.social•17 days ago

#FebMusicChallenge25 not one for reading in the bath in case of soggy books! Absolutely love a story song though. Had a look through and can't see this yet...

https://youtu.be/bidQIXnRABA

deputynew.bsky.social•17 days ago

Or this one which are very much linked in my brain

Story Vincent by Don McClean

devonsubtropical.bsky.social•17 days ago

#FebMusicChallenge25
Bath time -Al Stewart: ‘Charlotte Corday’ (if you know, you know!)

Oh blimey .. if reading in the bath were a sport, I would be pushing for a place in the Olympic Team - Always accompanied with uninterrupted “new” albums in full - this week it’s the awesome Heartworms - this tune is 🔥#FebMusicChallenge25 https://youtu.be/pFmc1vqCyGQ

grahamandre.bsky.social•17 days ago

In case anyone wants a Sunday afternoon bath here is the playlist so far #FebMusicChallenge25 dont stay in for the duration though you will be wrinkly https://open.spotify.com/playlist/5lHSUVRWRVCi33kF41VIk7?si=de4c9ece3d1842b0

grahamandre.bsky.social•17 days ago

My own choices today are the jazz tinged wonderfulness of George Michaels ‘Cowboys and Angels’ and for my story song an early Elton John song (1974) called ‘Ticking’ a song that deals with gun violence in America #FebMusicChallenge25

Ooh, great Sunday theme for #FebMusicChallenge25 today.

I'm going for the soothing tones of Norah Jones to relax to and it's got to be 'My Favourite Story' by Jack in Water: https://open.spotify.com/track/4kiYdRZsQjbc8PYUAe7Him?si=ZAJBRperRBmGD12o4x1kzw

I’ve gone for Space Oddity for storytelling. Still working on the bath one.

https://youtu.be/iYYRH4apXDo?feature=shared

mrsgcornwall.bsky.social•17 days ago

Happy Sunday! My choices are Sade’s Diamond Life (the whole album - I’m having a good soak) for in the bath and Prince’s Starfish & Coffee for some light-hearted storytelling.
https://youtu.be/TG4PqmShvHI?si=fkQYpE8ZwjXboROk

caroline68.bsky.social•17 days ago

Snap with a soak to Sade! 🤣

hazelmpinner.bsky.social•17 days ago

Both mine could fall under the story theme but are also both bath/shower songs as I like ones I can sing along to. Both are also about Elvis Presley! Black velvet by Alannah Myles and Walking in Memphis by Leonard Cohen 👌🏻 https://youtu.be/PgRafRp-P-o?si=K1LF7XskqKVFzHSx
#FebMusicChallenge25

lindsaykittens.bsky.social•17 days ago

My story is Crusader by Chris de Burgh.

He is a great storyteller (even if his music isn’t quite your thing).

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=h6SkaFMTihI

#FebMusicChallenge25

alienwife99.bsky.social•17 days ago

This would have been my storytelling choice too. Back to the drawing board…

lindsaykittens.bsky.social•17 days ago

The glorious

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=grJKlWWRw_I

Both a story and a listen in the bath.

#FebMusicChallenge25

Story song…Caught by the Fuzz Supergrass

mrsmoggie.bsky.social•17 days ago

Bath song…La Mer Charles Grenet

https://youtu.be/PXQh9jTwwoA

kerankaur77.bsky.social•17 days ago

For day 9 my song that tells a story is Sunny Road by Emiliana Torrini #FebMusicChallenge25
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MyuL1z2tejs

kerankaur77.bsky.social•17 days ago

My song for a relaxing bath / shower is Destiny by Zero 7, super chilled vibes. #FebMusicChallenge25
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U_OKigBRqBI

caroline68.bsky.social•17 days ago

So story song has to be the fabulous Al Wilson and The Snake. Too dancy for relaxing in the bath so will go for this long player: Sade 'Diamond Life'

Find the River by REM- I love the idea of #NationalReadInTheBathDay ! Storytelling- Ruby’s Arms by Tom Waits #FebMusicChallenge25 #FebMusicChallenge

eyesshutteacher.bsky.social•17 days ago

For #ReadInTheBathDay I’ll have Romeo and Juliet by Dire Straits. I’ve always loved this version of the story 😁

#FebMusicChallenge25

ict-links.bsky.social•16 days ago

A bit late to the pass today. My suggestion for a song that tells a story is Billy Joel and the Downeaster Alexa https://youtu.be/LVlDSzbrH5M?si=oswTGfSotIeRqcoA @grahamandre.bsky.social #FebMusicChallenge25

ict-links.bsky.social•16 days ago

And for relaxing #FebMusicChallenge25 I have gone for Dido and Life for Rent (or anything from that Album! @grahamandre.bsky.social ) https://youtu.be/xyLlz7pY_y8?si=93Eze0BH1CI0v0f6

Can I go for a cheeky second story one please? #FebMusicChallenge25
https://youtu.be/5Ge8_6rtQvs?feature=shared

grahamandre.bsky.social•16 days ago

Of course you can. This featured quite heavily in the recent Amy Winehouse film

rachelj47127149.bsky.social•16 days ago

I shall have to try and watch that.

grahamandre.bsky.social•16 days ago

It's on Netflix if you have it. She was a troubled soul who i believe could have been saved.

rachelj47127149.bsky.social•17 days ago

My relax in the bath song, partly because the references to water and heat - is this by Spacemen 3 #FebMusicChallenge25
https://youtu.be/Dl9oagckR0E?feature=shared

rachelj47127149.bsky.social•17 days ago

Going for this as my story song (or at least my first choice!). I remember first hearing this and actually wanting to know what would happen 😂 #FebMusicChallenge25
https://youtu.be/yo5gI3sZ4A4?feature=shared

lahull.bsky.social•17 days ago

https://youtu.be/lo2RBlYbwyM?si=bUlgZS2QJ_7wYni4 for my relaxing in the bath song… and another choice from O Hooley and Tidow for the story of Beryl https://youtu.be/lo2RBlYbwyM?si=bUlgZS2QJ_7wYni4 #FebMusicChallenge25

lahull.bsky.social•17 days ago

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beryl_Burton just in case you’re interested!

Dour scots electro indie outfit Arab Strap give us their take on the plight of immigrants in the UK by telling us the story of a dog fox and his vixen moving to the big city.
