Welcome to a Monday's Music Moves Me, the fantabulistic music meme hosted by me, my dearest of friends Dolly from XmasDolly, Callie from Jamerican Spice and the wonderful Stacy from Stacy Uncorked. As we close out the holiday season, today we feature music pertaining to A HAPPY NEW YEAR or songs you especially liked that came out this year.

I just found this song and thought it was perfect for me... and maybe a lot of YOU, too.....

NewYear's Resolution Song ~ Rhett & Link



A song from my youth.....


Happy New Year ~ Abba




Of course you cannot do a new year's themed post without sharing this song. I have no idea who these young men are, but they are amazing.....


Auld Lang Syne



This last song is so pretty and just what I wish for all of you!

New Year Song ~ Mary Win




I hope you enjoyed all the music I chose - what songs are 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)

Final step: Go visit the other Rockers on our Linky and PLEASE show them some love by leaving them a comment, you know you like comments, they do too!


Once you write up your post, link up with us (on any of the host's blog - they are all connected) and you may be chosen as our SPOTLIGHT DANCERS like this week's lucky couple in our #1 and #2 linky spots.....

ROCK ON MY FRIENDS

AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

I'm very sorry to say there are some people not playing along just using our linky to get traffic for their blogs! Unfortunately, these bloggers will be marked and ignored, you will not get any benefit from our linky, so don't bother. All we ask is that you leave a comment, grab our button, ad/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.

*** Just one more thing...

PLEASE, we are family friendly blogs and while we really don't want to censor anyone,

but we do ask that you keep your songs rated PG13 or less.

If you find that you need to post songs of an explicit sexual nature or language,

please find a different venue. If your song does contain a small amount of questionable Language, please put a disclaimer BEFORE the video.

Thank you very much!***

A Meme for the End of the Year from My Friend Grace

.

Where did 2011 go? Wasn't it just yesterday when we welcomed 2011 and now, there’s only a few days left before we use a new calendar. 

How did 2011 treat you? So-so? really lousy (I sure hope not!)?

What’s more perfect to look back on the year by answering this meme. My friend Grace over at Sandier Pastures has this great meme that she has been doing at the end of the year since 2006, I only stumbled on it last year.  But I had fun with it last year and wanted to share it with all of you.

Head on over to Grace's blog and feel free to copy the questions and have fun answering them and post them on your blog when you are ready.

On the last day of the year, Grace will put up her answers with a linky tool so we can link up our posts.

I can't wait to see how every one's 2011 went, so head on over to Sandier Pastures now and get the questions.....
