Lexie's Chain: The Four Hundred and Fourth Chain

Hello pals. Welcome to week 404 of Lexie's Chain. Last week da winner wos Terence wiph Hallelujah. Let's see what we got dis week and who is da winner!

@cloonfourmegan
Last week Tel did win wiv Hathaway and Hallelujah. Now this be a song by Leonard Cohen. He also famously sang about Suzanne. A great singing Suzanne is Suzanne Vegas and here she is with great song Toms Diner.




@claptonterrier
last week terence selected a song by a  singing actor…..which leads us immediately to the very finest of singing actors and our linky this week…..Bohemian Rhapsody by the one and only William Shatner!




@limeoscar
So last week was Hallelujah, which according to YouTube this year is the 4th most covered song, but before the internet came along in the top five was Somewhere over the rainbow & What a wonderful world.  These were put together in what is known as a 'mashup' by a Hawaiian chap called Israel 'Iz' Kamakawiwo’ole, so this does be our linky this week.  It is also a double linky as Hallelujah was used in the film Shrek and Iz’s version of the mashup was used for the closing credits of the film Meet Joe Black.




@maggietkat
Wel. Done Sir T with Hallelujah by Hawthorne. I figured that since that is a famous song sung by a tv character I would look for nother. Here is Megan Draper from “Mad Men” vamping a French standard “Zou Bisou Bisou”.




@djladylexie
Well done Sir Terence wiv da Hallelujah. Originally written and sung by Leonard Cohen. My favourite line in the the song is "The fourth, the fifth, the minor fall and the major lift". This represents F G and F. The major chord. Ella also sang about the change from major to minor in her song Every Time We Say Goodbye. That me linky.




An da winner as decided by Oscie dus be .......................................  oh poops is me again! Me dad choosin again pfftttt.

Ere is wot Tel said: After much study n considerayshun I chooses linky numba 5 wot be Ella Fitzgerald n "Every Time We Say Goodbye" .
