Ten Little Title Tunes: Towards a Musicology of the Mass Media | Philip Tagg, Robert Clarida

My picks for #titlesandtunes. Book and song are opposite vibes ha but I‘ve loved this song since I was a teen (it was on the Smallville soundtrack which I listened to on repeat) and the book is on my shelves so looking forward to reading it! #islandvibe

Cinfhen, BarbaraBB

Ten Little Title Tunes: Towards a Musicology of the Mass Media | Philip Tagg, Robert Clarida

Dear Friends,
We‘ve loved hosting the #BigBuddyRead(s) and sharing our photos & musical tastes with each of you. It‘s been a wonderful way to bond & get a sneak peek into your lives. However we‘ve reached a point where these events are becoming too overwhelming in our overly scheduled days.
But don‘t fear…we still want to stay connected!!!

Beginning May 1 we‘re introducing a new laidback challenge #TitlesAndTunes ??

⬇️⬇️

Cinfhen, LitsyEvents

BarbaraBB On the first of each month we‘ll share a prompt and we ask all Littens to read a book for the prompt (open to your own interpretation) & post what you read & name a favorite song that fits the prompt. At the end of each month we‘ll combine all the songs to create a monthly Litsy Spotify playlist. You can dip in & out of the challenge if some months are too hectic or you‘re not feeling inspired. 2y

BarbaraBB This is meant to be fun and low key and we‘re really hoping you‘ll join us ???Please let us know in the comments when you want to be tagged!

Love, Barbara & Cindy 2y
