Do You Guys Do This With Music?

[Leslie and Halas]

Ever since I got my first Mac a few years ago, and started playing with iMovie, I listen to music differently than I used to.  Now I'm always thinking about what kind of slide show or movie a song would go with.  It's almost like I'm trying to pick songs for the soundtrack to my life.

Since I've been on DK, and learned a lot more about dog rescue (specifically doodles), I find myself applying this soundtrack theory to dogs.  And now I'm convinced that there are a lot of songs out there about dog rescue.  Sure, the artists probably think of them as "love songs," but I beg to differ.

There are 2 songs that I've been thinking about lately.  One is "Make You Feel My Love" by Adele.  It was written and performed by some old guy named Bob Dylan a few decades back, but who can stand to listen to that guy (If you love him, I'm just kidding).  It just sounds so much to me like it could be about a rescued dog that had a tough start to life.  One that's afraid or has other issues that you just can't figure out.  You just wish that your love alone could fix whatever is wrong. That's more simple than what I really think, but you'll get it if you know the song and agree that all songs are about dogs. :)    I can think of a couple of very specific doodles that this could be about.

The other one is "Home" by Phillip Phillips.  That one sounds like it's from an adopter to a dog that s/he just rescued.  Assuring the dog that no matter what happens from here on out, that dog has a forever home.

Do you guys do this?  Any other good doodle or rescue songs out there?

[Donna K & Quincy]

OMG, Leslie I do this as well and this song has always struck me as being a perfect rescue slideshow song.

[BG and Gavin]

I love that song Donna - love, love, love!

[Joanne ~ Spud*]

Donna, sent me a Norah Jones song about, Shooting the Moon.  It is on my iPod now. Love.  So, not only for dogs, but I keep my friends in music too

[Donna K & Quincy]

Joanne, you are special. :>)

[F, Calla & Luca]

I haven't been following this discussion but she is and so are you!

[Leslie and Halas]

Oh, I like that one.

[Karen, Jasper and Jackdoodle]

Yep, I've often thought this would be perfect for a rescue slideshow!

[Lonnie & Libby Lu]

Great, great choice of songs Leslie!  Personally I put music to everything.  I can't function without music playing and I have very specific choice of songs.  

[Joanne ~ Spud*]

Oh geesh. Please don't take this one wrong because I have SO MANY!  But this was a favorite recently. It is beautiful and I know, it was written just for me

Stars, by Grace Potter

For Rescue

Home, by Phillip Phillips  ( GMTA Leslie )

and my favorite to sing to Spud right now

Hey Ho, by the Lumineers

Alright, I have a million. I can't live without music.  I'll stop now.  I'll try

[Donna K & Quincy]

Joanne, You are so right that first song was meant especially for you and it actually made me misty eyed.

 LOL,I sing I like big butts mutts to Quincy.

[Joanne ~ Spud*]

I read this last night an went right over it. Now, I can't get, " I like big mutts" song, out of my mind!

[Leslie and Halas]

I love Stars.  That one is perfect for you.
