    Musical Monday – Queen for the Queen’s Birthday

    6/9/2013

    It’s musical Monday again and here in Australia it’s a public holiday to celebrate the Queen’s Birthday. It’s not really her birthday of course, but we’re very happy to have a long weekend for any reason at all. Even the die-hard Republicans like me will take it. (In Australia a Republican is a person who wishes the country was a republic and not part of the Commonwealth it is not a person who votes for the US Republican party. Don’t say I never teach you anything on this blog!)

    In honour of the occasion I have chosen two songs by the band Queen. They certainly did love a rock ballad.

    The first Give me Somebody to Love, seems an apt choice for this blog. The second is a classic piece of modern rock and storytelling. Have a great day.
