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.

@cloonfourmegan
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.

@claptonterrier
*squeal of tyres and brakes*….hello Lady Lexie….a late entry from me this week…last week our winner was Jumping Jack Flash….that is shorthand for a flashy wild young man…so we thought about the bad boys of rock music…and so we do not have to name names we have selected as our linky this week “Wild Boys” by Duran Duran.

@maggietkat
Well done Lexie with the Stones’ “Jumpin' Jack Flash”. Jagger's lips and stage performances influenced the danceable Maroon 5 number, “Moves Like Jagger”.

@cloonfourmegan
Last week you did win wiv Rolling Stones and Jumping Jack Flash. Well I fink the heat do have got to us but we fort straight away of flashing and this led us to this song ... yeah they call it the streak !

@limeoscar
Well done Dame Lexie with Jumpin’ Jack Flash, which was pawrently inspired by the gardener, who was called ... wait for it ... Jack! So that got us thinking about the garden in all this luffly sunshine which reminded us of the Beatles hit, as we did think we might like the Octopus’ Garden in the shade right now. This Muppets version always makes us smile!

@terenceterrier

Hello pals. Welcome to week 387 of Lexie's Chain. Last week da winner was Oscar wiph Jump from Van Halen. Let's see what we got this week:

@maggietkat
Well done Oscar with Van Halen’s “Jump”, a song that I think is about getting through life with a positive attitude. Another song that helps mum get through housework just peps her up you know, is also from an 80’s superstar group, the Pointer Sisters. Here is “Jump (for Your Love)”.

@terenceterrier
Larst week pal Oscar winned wiv "Jump " by Van Halen.  Jump where ? Off a cliff ? Off a bridge into a river ? In front of a bus ? Pfft dat not a nice fing to tell sumwun to do. It be suicide. Even if my chosen linky duss say "Suicide is Painless " . Da vershun I use be by Manic Street Preachers . *opts to jump into paddling.

@djladylexie

Lexie's Chain: The Three Hundred and Eighty Sixth Chain

Hello pals. Welcome to week 386 of Lexie's Chain. Last week da winner was me wiv Pretty Woman from Roy Orbison. Let's see what we got this week:

@cloonfourmegan
Last week you LEXIE did win wiv Pretty Woman sung by Roy Orbison. That song was in the film of the same name starring Julia Roberts. She was also around that time in another great film My Best Friends Wedding where the cast sings another great song Say A Little Prayer For You.

@claptonterrier
ello Lady Lexie…last week our winner was the song Pretty Woman by Roy Orbison…that of course made us think about the film Pretty Woman starring Richard Gere and Julia Roberts…so we googled Richard Gere to see if he had any musical links and we saw an interview in Rolling Stone Magazine entitled “Richard Gere: Heartbreaker” so of course our linky this week has written itself and it is Heartbreaker by the Rolling Stones…

@limeoscar
Well, so well done Lexie with Roy Orbison’s Oh Pretty Woman.  Did you know this was covered by Van Halen in the early eighties (tis true ... go look it up for the most unlikely version you will ever hear!).  So anyway, Van Halen: well probably their most successful hit was Jump and so this does be our linky this week.  In 2012 PRS for Music polled it’s members for the most popular sporting song in the run up to the Olympics and Jump was voted number 1!  We think this version is most inspiring … *imagines Lexie’s Dad borrowing lead singer’s outfit for karaoke pawformance, all pouty & complete with splits & jumps* 😳😆.

@terenceterrier
Wowser we gots spooky shivers when we saw Dame Lexie's winning linky wot woz  "Pretty Woman" by Roy Orbison . Dat woz one of Grandpaw's favrit songs n it picked in da same week as wot he died. He also luvved watching footie n woulda been glued to da telly at da mo wotchin da World Cup games in Russia. So for my linky I look for annuva song writted in da 60's n I gonna give yoo " Back in the USSR" n it be a live vershun by Paul McCartney in Moscow Red Square Russia.

Ere wot dad said:  Excellent links everyone. Van Halen won it for me although I think I'd split my difference if I tried that! 

So now is over to you. Email me: lex[dot]dogstovesky @ gmail.com or DM me by 3rd July 2018 (ges it to me by 10am UK time if poss). Oh sometimes I dus accidentally delete em! Heehee. So good idea to type DO NOT DELETE in the title and dussnt forget to send a linky to da video from You Tube!

Lexie's Chain: The Three Hundred and Eighty Fifth Chain

Hello pals. Welcome to week 285 of Lexie's Chain. Last week da winner was Oscar wiv Hound Dog from Elvis. Let's see what we got this week:

@diamondbertie
Well done Oscar. I love Elvis Hound Dog set my mind straight to Who Let The Dogs Out by Baha Men it made me smile.

@maggietkat
Well down Oscar with Hound Dog sung by “The Pelvis”. One of the lyrics stuck in my mind, “you ain’t caught a rabbit...” my link is Eddie Rabbitt doing “I love a rainy night”. And, Rabbitt penned another hit for Presley, “Kentucky Rain”.

@cloonfourmegan
Last week Oscar won wiv Elvis and Hound Dog. That made us think of Kate Bush’s song Hounds of Hell. This song was covered by The Futureheads. They got their name from a Flaming Lips album so we give you the Flaming Lips and Do You Realise?

@claptonterrier
Last week our winner was Houd Dog by Elvis P….we never did quite understand why Mr Presley’s hound dog was crying all the time….so this week our linky is a slightly more explicable set of crying circumstances….Cryin by Roy Orbison….

@terenceterrier
Larst week pal Oscar had da winning linky - Elvis Presley n "Hound Dog" . I gonna run wiv da hound theme . The Hound of the Baskervilles come to mind  but it dussnt have a theme toon to use . So I tries again . My linky be "Hounds of Love" by Kate Bush but Iz going wiv da Alternative vershun.

@sonikebt
Well done @LimeOscar for winning with “Hound Dog” by Elvis Presley. There are lots of people who think that Elvis didn’t “leave the building” and our link this week thinks he floating in space about to play a gig on the moon. “Moondog” - Prefab Sprout.

@djladylexie
Well the hound dog song was originally sung by a woman and was about a man who she was singin was nuffin but a gigolo. I dunno wot dat is but happarently Richard Gere was one once in a movie caled American Gigolo. Ok me checked an a gilogo is a male escort. Interestin that he played that a gilogo as he later starred in a movie wiph Julia Roberts wot was i spose the female equivalent of a glogolo. Dat movie was Pretty Woman so me gonna go wiph da feem toon for it wot be unsurprisingly called Pretty Woman!

An da winner ............ as chosened by Oscar  ..................... dus be ..............................  me!  Me dad choosin next week as long as he not at sea eeek!

Ere wot Oscar said: Well, wot a fab lot of linkys to choose from and so many linkys that link to each other, BOL!  So we choose Linky 7 coz Mr Richard does be Gmas fav actor, Mr Roy is her fav singer and we finks she’s real pretty! 

So now is over to you. Email me: lex[dot]dogstovesky @ gmail.com or DM me by 26th June 2018 (ges it to me by 10am UK time if poss). Oh sometimes I dus accidentally delete em! Heehee. So good idea to type DO NOT DELETE in the title and dussnt forget to send a linky to da video from You Tube!
