Hello pals. Welcome to week 403 of Lexie's Chain. Last week da winner wos Oscie wiph Inspector Morse feem. Let's see what we got dis week and who is da winner!

@cloonfourmegan
Last week Oscar won wiv very clever Inspector Morse theme tune. That show started the late very great John Thaw. He was also in The Sweeny with Denis Waterman who was famous for singing the theme tune for  the shows he acted in so here he is singing the theme tune for Minder.




@maggietkat
Well done with Inspector Morse Theme. Oscar chosed it because it had Morse code. My tune also a memorable number. “Jenny 867-5309” by Tommy Tutone.




@terenceterrier
Larst week pal  Oscar aka da Drone King did wiv da feem toon from "Inspector Morse" . When Morse woz bumped off in da TV series annuva series started called "Lewis" wiv his Sgt Lewis getting pawmoted to Inspector. His second in command be Sgt Hathaway who nearly became a priest before deciding to join da pawleece. He in turn gets pawmoted when Lewis retired ( tho da series still called Lewis just to confuzzle fings). Anyhows Hathaway woz played by Laurence Fox. Not only woz he an actor but he also writted songs n sing dem. For my linky I looks down da YooToob playlist for him  n finds one called "Hallelujah Hathaway" wot he sings n it be pawticularly appawriate cos of da religious connekshun in da character. Nuffin to do wiv da fact it be one of our favrit songies - honest guv !




@djladylexie
Well all I can say is dit dit dah or summat. I fink The Police wanted to sing about Morse code but they got confussled and sung de do do do de da da da instead! BOL.

Lexie's Chain: The Four Hundred and Second Chain

Hello pals. Welcome to week 402 of Lexie's Chain. Last week da winner wos me wivs da David Bowie an Star Man. Let's see what we got dis week and who is da winner!

@terenceterrier
Larst week Dame Lexie did win wiv da 1972 track "Starman" by David Bowie. Later dat decade he starred in a sumwot strange cult movie called " The Man that Fell to Earth" wot be abowt an alien wot err falls to our planet earth. Da most faymuss n luvved alien wot came to earth woz E.T. So for my linky I going wiv a songy called dat n it be by Katy Perry.




@maggietkat
Well done Dame Lexie with David Bowie's “Starman”. When Bowie was the commencement speaker at Berkeley he listed his musical influences. One of those was Julie London, a very talented actor and singer. This is “Blue Moon” which is not quite the stars but a lovely very of a classic.




@cloonfourmegan
Last week you did win wiv David Bowie and Starman. What does a Starman need? Well a starship and then nothing will stop him!




@limeoscar
So last week the winner was Bowie’s Starman, so we could do the obvious linky, but that would be borin snorin! Instead me linky be about morse code, no bear with me pals. The Starman single originally featured a "loud mix" of the "morse code" section between the verse and the chorus. That puts us in mind of other music with morse code, an probably the most famous is the theme from Morse by Barrington Pheloung, in which the opening bars in morse code spelled the word Morse!




An da winner as decided by me dad dus be .......................................  Oscar! Me dad picked dis one because funny enough he be learning morse code on his course to become officer of the watch!

Ere is wot dad said: --. --- --- -.. / .--- --- -...   if you can say what that is you get a bonus point!

So now is over to you. Email me: lex[dot]dogstovesky @ gmail.com or DM me by 24th October 2018 (get 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!

Lexies Chain: The Four Hundred and First Chain

Hello pals. Welcome to week 401 of Lexie's Chain. Last week da winner wos Oscar wiv Money from Da Floyd. Let's see what we got dis week and who is da winner!

@claptonterrier
Hello Lady Lexie...last week our winner was the song Money! ...well, money money money must be funny as they say....so this week our mind has been turned to funny songs....and our linky this week from amongst the many funny songs you might hear is "It would never have worked out" by Victoria Wood.




@cloonfourmegan
Last week Oscar did win wiv Money by Pink Floyd. This song is from the album Dark Side of the Moon. Alan Parsons was the audio engineer who worked on this album. He also worked on two Beatles albums including Let it Be and we pick this track from that album - The Long and Winding Road.



@maggietkat
Well done Oscar with Pink Floyd's Money. I decided to look for songs about money. My search didn’t take long. I decided to try Sir T’s method, choose the first song that pops into his head. My pick has a similar theme, “Money for Nothing” by the Dire Straits.




@terenceterrier
Larst week pal Oscar did win wiv "Money" by Pink Floyd. Dis song woz on da album " The Dark Side of the Moon". On da dark side it is well umm just dark wivout shadows. You only get a moon shadow when there be a total lunar eclipse *astonomer ears* . Yoo can also get total solar eclipse AND * dramatic pause leading up to linky*  a total eclipse of the heart . Da vershun I going wiv though be by Westlife n it be a YooToob moosic video.




@djladylexie
Money from the Floyd was from their album dark side of the moon. The moon is in outer space. Outer space is the physical universe beyond earth. Earth is the plant wot we lives on. The best movie ever about space and earth must be The Man Who Fell to Earth wiph David Bowie. Continuing me space feem I gives you Starman from Bowie.




An da winner as decided by Oscy dus be .......................................  oh noes is me! So me dad turn to pick next time.

Ere is wot Oscar said: Wot a pawsome list ov entries this week . . . many furbulus artists wot over OTRB now *bows head*.  We dus choose Linky 5 coz how can yous not pick the genius of Mr Bowie

So now is over to you. Email me: lex[dot]dogstovesky @ gmail.com or DM me by 24th October 2018 (get 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 Four Hundredth Chain

Hello pals. Welcome to week 400 of Lexie's Chain. Last week da winner wos Terence wiph Like A Rolling Stone by The Rolling Stones. Let's see what we got dis week and who is da winner!

@claptonterrier
Last week our winner was Like a Rolling Stone….its not often you get songs being written about other bands (albeit indirectly)…so tis week our linky will be one of the few others….we give you Sir Duke by Stevie Wonder…a song about the great Duke Ellington.




@cloonfourmegan
Last week Tel won wiv the doubler Like A Rolling Stone sung by would you believe it The Rolling Stones. This Bob Dylan song was also covered by Green Day and our favourite song of theirs is usually known as Time of Your Life but the full title be Good Riddance (Time of Your Life).




@limeoscar
So last week’s winning song was Like a Rolling Stone, but did you know this was demo’d without success in 3/4 time and only became a hit after it was changed to the rockier sound of 4/4 time known today?  So that does be our linky this week... timing.  Arguably one of the most famous pop songs with weird . . . timing is Pink Floyd’s Money, which is in 7/8 timing, apart from Gilmour’s guitar solo which is in 4/4.  It’s all about . . . timing!




@maggietkat
Well done Sir T with Like a Rolling Stone. Thought about Coventry *shibers*. Here is my favorite super *shibers* song, “Thriller” by Michael Jackson.




@djladylexie
Me linky is the name Marianne. How comes you asks? Well, let me tell you. They say a rolling stone gathers no moss. Moss is a plant wot don't have roots and grows like a carpet spreading as it goes. A carpet is a floor covering that makes it nice to walk on. A small carpet is called a rug. Some artists have rugs on stage when they perform. One such artist was the late great Leonard Cohen. Leonard Cohen wrote a song called So Long Marianne which was about his girlfriend and muse Marianne Ihlen. Mick Jagger also had a relationship with a Marianne, Marianne Faithfull. So here's to Mariannes.



An da winner as decided by El Tel dus be ....................................... Oscar! Yay you wins me pal. Your turn to pick next time.

Ere is wot Tel said: Wowsa there be some supa linkies n songies dis week. Half of my marks always goes to da writted linky n half to da song. Linky numba 5 wos brill - it haz  to be awarded da title of a linky extraordinaire. Full marks for effort. ( noms on Mars bar trying to decide). However in da end I goes for linky numba 3 as my winner cos it be a clever linky n I luvs da song "Money" by "Pink Floyd"

So now is over to you. Email me: lex[dot]dogstovesky @ gmail.com or DM me by 17th October 2018 (get 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 Ninety Ninth Chain

Hello pals. Welcome to week 399 of Lexie's Chain. Last week da winner wos Clapton. Let's see what we got dis week and who is da winner!

@cloonfourmegan
Last week Sir Clapton won with The Boss and Paradise Under the C. As soon as we heard this we couldn’t stop singing another paradise song by the great Meatloaf .




@terenceterrier
Larst week our little woolly pal Sir C did win wiv Bruce Springstein and "Paradise by the Big C". I learns dat his surname is of Dutch origin n means summat like a stepping stone between houses. From dat I gonna step to a rolling stone.  To da  song " Like A Rolling Stone" by Bob Dylan cos Bob woz a big influence on Bruce. But I can do a dubble linky here cos I finds a vershun of da song by da Rolling Stones. Since Halloween be approaching I gives yoo da live vershun from Coventry this year. ( hides behind sofa - dey look very scary n dey murdering a classic Dylan numba).




@limeoscar
So Clapton gave us The Boss with Paradise by the C.  When this was first played, they all thought it was Sea not C, but it’s really as simple as ABC, so that does be our linky this week the Jackson 5 with ABC.



@djladylexie
Me linky is hell. Wot you say!? Well, Springsteen went on tour wiv his band and went to Australia where he dun a cover version of Highway to Hell in honour of Bon Scott of ACDC. So me gonna choose annuva ACDC song - Hells Bells - released after the death of Bon Scott as their comeback album.




@maggietkat
Well done Clapton with “Paradise by the C” featuring Clarence “Big Man” Brown. I do love those saxes so I looked and looked for other sax rock and roll players. I found Sonny “The Colossus” Rollins who sits in with the Stones' “Waiting on a Friend”. Get it? Big sax players?





An da winner as chosen by Clappers dust be .................................... Terence! Yay dat mean you dust win so you chooses next week me pal Tel.

Ere wot CT said:  Hello Miss Lexie and apologies for the delayed results. We have been jetting around Europe. Anyhoo, we have perused this week’s linkys and we have made our choice.
