This challenge comes from an old friend from Tsu, Brett Nichols. Speaking of Tsu, it is coming back!!
Anyway Brett came up with this challenge on Tsu and since he didn’t join Virily, I decided to use his challenge. It is called SONG SATURDAY, it was a lot of fun. I hope you agree.
Directions:
1. Post anything that reminds you of a song on Saturday.
2. Use Song Saturday in your title.
3. Use the tag, “SongSaturday”.
Let’s have some fun with songs!
Here is the first one showing a beach in Southern California. It has been a long time since we have had any rain, so this song came to mind.
IT NEVER RAINS IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA by Albert Hammond.
Do you remember this song from the 70’s?
The tag line went like this:
It never rains in Southern California
But, girl, don’t they warn ya
It pours, man it pours.
I definitely remember the song and I’m likely to join the challenge, though probably not just on Saturdays (I’ll still use that as a tagline) and I’ll probably include a youtube clip. Music plays a large role in my day to day life.
That would be wonderful Rex. Yes, it is song Saturday, but of course the posts don’t have to come out exactly on Saturday. I would love to hear what you pick out!
That’s a fun challenge! I have been listening to the songs when reading posts in Virily. 😀
I am thinking what song to pick…..
It has been fun. I am really enjoying it. 🙂
Great challenge Kim, but on Saturdays our posts hardly see the light of day LOL.
Thank you Dawn, Yes the weekends the staff has off. There is only one moderator working on the weekends I believe. If you would like to join though, it doesnt matter when they appear on the site. Your song saturday could be released on Wednesday, whos going to pay attention of when it was posted or released. Post em if you got em!
I remember that song very well..I just had a go with a u tube link…Its great to try something new
Thank you Pam, it was a great song. I did get a new mouse, now I can copy and paste again! 😀
A lovely and fun challenge certainly! One of my top favorite songs is Demons from Imagine Dragons. Another is You by Carpenters. And I love Sheeran ??
Oh yes, I love those two as well. Post em!!
I can testify to the veracity of that song
Ah yes! I bet you can! 😉
my countrymen freak out when it rains
It’s a challenge that will really be challenging for me… LOL\
I hardly listen to English songs :p
Who said it had to be English? Post em gf! Just do it, I bet more than I like music from other countries.
Hah! Know I’ve to flip YouTube upside-down for those songs!
:p
lol you crack me up. I was taking a drink of coffee when I read this. Dangit! I almost wore it. hahaha.
Good to hear that. Then I’ll go and find more Chinese songs that I am more familiar with. 😀
Yes, Kaka, please do! I would love to see something besides the American ones.
Yes, I think it’s good to share songs from different countries or languages, as everyone can still enjoy the melody even if they don’t understand the lyrics. 🙂
I am a day late to the challenge – but will happily join!
My mouth dropped open. WHAT? No way did I just read that you will join a challenge. lol Giggles. and happily too!! Yay Doc, this will be great to see your song choices!
i posted it this morning – 🙂
I shall look for it in a bit sir! Big grin!!
Once a week is better than 365 times.
plus at some point I can trot out my all time favorite embarrassing song.
True, the year one, I only made it a half a year. That was just too much. I kept getting a week or so behind. lol
Now the mention of the all time fav embarrassing song has me intrigued.
That’s a good challenge. I don’t about the rest of us users whose posts are moderated. Our posts on this challenge might not be published on Saturday. It might even be on Monday.
Please, can you tell me what is Tsu. I have been hearing about it and that Virily will be better once Tsu returns. Thanks.
Thank you Introvert. No worries on the moderation times, they don’t necessarily have to come out on the exact day. Just like all the rest of the daily challenges on here, folks who are moderated can post a few days early. I have even heard the suggestion to post them all on one day. People will still pull up the post if it is not on the day.
Now about Tsu. Tsu was one of the first paid sharing sites. It sadly went under a few years back, but a lot of us here were members there. They are now coming back and are going to open soon. It probably will not be good for Virily.
Thanks for the clarification and the suggestions.
I understand. Many former members of the site will return back to it once it starts rolling out.
I hope Virily will pull up its socks.
I thought I was writing on Carol’s post. Anyway I will accept this challenge.
I have done that more times than I can count. lol Its okay, no worries. Glad to see you will accept this challenge Grace!
The problem with those whose posts await moderation they appear when the topic has lost its meaning. I did a post this morning immediately after I read your post but it has not been published. I think they should do away with verified users. Everything will fall in place (lol) May be they could get some 10 percent more on their earnings to pacify them.
I don’t believe so. I think that even though it didnt come out on Saturday that people will still enjoy the post. It will be ongoing, every Saturday. So if the one that you posted this morning doesn’t come out until Tuesday then you are an early for next week. 😉 This goes with all of the daily challenges.
I do think you are correct about the moderation. Or the lack of moderators. If posts would just come out on the same day as they are posted, this site would gain popularity like crazy.
That was a an appealing song.
Will get to Kim’s post. Thanks for the link
I sure to remember that song. OK you talked me into it Kim
It is one of those toe tapping songs. Yay, glad to see your going to join. 😉
Yes indeed I remember the song. The photo is perfect. We also need rain so bad Kim. Thanks for this idea!
Tags seem to be working for me but not for others. Oh well, another issue out of our control. 🙁
It is a good old song. I have always loved it. Thank you, I thought the photo fit. I did think about finding a rainy one. lol. This one won out though. Tags work, but just not the way tags usually work on Virily that is. The tags will help on the web though as long as there are no spaces. You can do a search searching for tags here, but it is basically just names that are grouped together. Like if you do a search for Bluebirds. As long as you mentioned blue in your title it will come up. I hope this helps explain it, I am terrible at trying to get my point across sometimes. lol. I hope to see some songs from you soon!
I remember the song – actually, I have a collection of California songs (even Shocking Blue had one) — This is maybe my favorite right now I guess – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gxzMbAMO73k
Oh, I don’t think tags work for the bulk of the users here. Just sayin’ …
You found one I have never heard of. The link did work, and I liked it. Very easy to listen to on a Sunday morning!
Tags don’t work here unless you are a verified user. Am I wrong?
I try to use tags whenever possible. Tags don’t work here like they do on the big ole web Howard. I don’t think it has anything to do with being verified, but I could be wrong. For one you don’t have to start the tag off by a # and you can have spaces here. I don’t because in case they do make it outside of virily then they will be helpful.
I wanted to say this immediately – I have a post pending and I made a tag work! Something changed, maybe it was me. But, I do have tags. 🙂
lol, I should’ve read both comments first. So, it doesn’t matter if you are verified then. That answers one question. 😉
This is too funny. Tags don’t work here for me AT ALL. EVER.
I had a post and when it was pending the tag showed and worked but when published it is now gone! So, I don’t have tags cuz I’m special or not special or whatever. So, go to #silhouettesaturday and I never made a post. Not even the one you just saw! Oh well, I got happy for a second and should have known better.
So, it was there and it worked and it was taken off when published – that’s screwed up. Takes some of the fun out.
Now I don’t feel much like posting tonight. Screw it.
Oh, and every thing you told me I knew and used to use here years ago but no longer. I do not have tags and I don’t know of any who do except for verified users. I’m back to that.
I will make another post on saturday and mention the tag not working. Thanks Howard!!
I guess I missed a post. I don’t believe anyone cares but me. No worries. It is fun to use tags I guess but whatever.
Love that song of your choice.
Thank you LaJenna! I love those old songs!
