Lexie's Chain: The Three Hundred and Ninety First Chain

Hello pals. Welcome to week 391 of Lexie's Chain. Last week da winner was Tel wiph Honey. Let's see what we go dis week.

@sonikebt
Last weeks winning link was “Honey” by Bobby Goldsboro. Honey is sweet but it can be bitter sweet coz of the calories. So our link is - “Bitter Sweet Symphony” by The Verve.




@diamondbertie
The last winner chose Honey by Bobby Goldsboro, wow ?? I know this song it’s lovely
My link has to be the Beatles song a Taste of Honey another lovely song with honey as the link.




@djladylexie
Honey by Bobby Goldsboro was an excellent song. This isn't what a Cincinnati Enquirer report said that it was frequently  considered the worst song of all time! Apparently Tony Blackburn played it constantly on his radio show when he was dumped by his wife Tessa Wyatt. This was parodied in the mockumentary Smashie and Nicey The End of an Era. They played a song over and over again on their show. That song was Bachman Turner Overdrive and You Ain't Seen Noffink Yet. Dat me linky!




@limeoscar
OMD what is Sir Tel doing to us . . . still mopping up tears in this house pals, one box was not enough!  The words of of the song did get us thinking though about a song written for the tv series Highlander for the scenes in which Connor McLeod must endure his wife Heather McLeod growing old and dying.  It has the bonus of being by the legends that are Queen, so we give you as our linky this week . . . Who wants to live forever.  It was apparently written by Brian May in the backseat of his car after seeing then 20 minute first cut of Heather’s death scene.

Last week Tel won wiv Honey .. it be a  sad song but when we fink of honey we think of our favourite bear Pooh Bear and here is the Honey Song.




@claptonterrier
Last week our winner was a song by Bobby Goldsboro....which sounds like a stage name chosen from a list of English town names....which put is in mind of Middlesborough....and so this week our linky is an ode to the young girls of Middlesborough by the town's greatest musicL export, Chris Rea,..and the song is Stainsby Girls.




@maggietkat
Well done Sir T with “Honey” sung by Bobby Goldsboro. Mum's sister had a huge crush on Bobby. The writer of the song was Bobby Russell. Russell had another hit, “The Night the Lights Went Out in Georgia”,  a song in the Southern Gothic genre. This is Reba McIntyre's version, just wait for the twist in the last stanza.




An da winner dust be: Maggie! Yay me pal you chosin next time.

Ere wot Tel said abowt it: It woz very hard to pick dis week. So many dat I liked for different reasons . But there can only be one winner so afta reminding myself of da chainy game rules I choose linky numba 7 wot be "The Night The Lights Went Out In Georgia" by Reba McIntire.
