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?

I used to sing this to Lacey ( who is doing fantastic by the way)
40 Dogs ( Like Romeo and Juliet) , by Bob Schneider
I don't ever do that, but I do loudly sing alternate lyrics to songs that I make to fit Darwin. Take "All You Single Ladies" for example, when it comes on DH and I loudly sing "All you fluffy puppies, all you fluffy puppies, all you fluffy puppies, all you fluffy puppies. If you liked it then you should have put a collar on it..." etc. Fun stuff. :-)
This is what I do, too.
My friend's 6 year old Siberian Husky passed away suddenly last year. I sent her this song (which I love). We listened to it together at a cottage campfire this summer and cried. RIP Deuce.
Colder Weather - Zac Brown Band
Nice, BG. Really nice
I love the Zac Brown Band
Love this!
I rarely remember to listen to music (I keep the sound muted on my computer) so I really love it when someone brings music to my attention. I am one of the old guys who likes Dylan - probably because he is the only person in the whole world that I can sing along with and not lose the tune! On Dylan's song I vacillated about the point of view - was the dog singing to me or me to the dog? But in "Home" it most definitely is the way I feel about my rescue. I'm going to call him over, give him some hugs and listen to this again.
I love Paul Simon's songs and can really see all my guys in a slide show with his music.
I have so many. Most of the songs on my page are for JD. I wish I could find a good version of Frank Sinatra singing "Our Love is here to Stay".
This song?
That's the one!
