Welcome to a Monday's Music Moves Me, the fantabulistic music meme hosted by me, Dolly from XmasDolly, Larry from Cakeblast and Callie from Jamerican Spice and our wonderful newest co-host Stacy from Stacy Uncorked. This week's theme is FREEBIE WEEK!!


Since today is Independence day, I decided to dedicate today's music to America, I hope you like my choices. Let's get moving first with the rousing sounds of.....


Stars and Stripes Forever ~ John P. Sousa by the NY Philharmonic conductor Leonard Bernstein (the best, IMO)





America the Beautiful ~ Elvis (of course)





God Bless America ~ Celine Dion





and finally (gave me goosebumps).....


U.S. National Anthem ~ The Academy Choirs







So what's moving you today? Write up a post and let us know... Here is all you need to do to play along:


First step: Head on over to You Tube, or anywhere you get your music videos and post them on your blog! Upcoming themes are to you LOWER RIGHT of XmasDolly's blog.


Second Step: Grab our "Monday's Music Moves Me" Button, mine is on my right sidebar, or off of any of the hosts' sites.


Third step: SIGN THE LINKY - Follow your hosts, grab their buttons too when you visit them and show them some love by leaving a comment.. (mine is on my right sidebar above the 4M button)

We're very sorry to say there has been some people not playing along, and just signing our linky so other people will stop by their blogs for giveaways or whatever! Unfortunately, these bloggers will be justifiably deleted without prejudice or notice. Leave a comment, grab our button, or follow us. If you don't want to post a video, you can post a link to a video, or post some lyrics, but please - at least attempt to make it music related. Thank you for your understanding.
 

*** Just one thing to note... We are family friendly blogs and while we don't want to censor anyone, we do ask that you keep your songs rated PG13 or less.

Thank you very much!***
