Every Monday I intend to post a music video (and a few words explaining my choice) I invite you to join me by doing same in the comments section below. As the forum (hopefully) grows my aim is that we begin to inspire our fellow Steemians to broaden their musical horizons by listening to the music that inspires us. The only thing I ask is that (where possible) every song we listen to is played nice and loudly on headphones or speakers in order that we capture it’s true essence.
As more Steemians join this venture there is also going to be the possibility of being rewarded for our musical tastes via the amount of upvotes each song receives. That said please never feel awkward about posting a track, a guilty pleasure or even your own musical ventures. I have an extremely wide range of musical interests but also understand that music like beauty is very much in the eye of the beholder. As such I may play my chosen song, but who am I to define what constitutes good music.

Monday already! Man they come around quick.
So many times I've been close to posting this utter classic.
One of my favourite records of all time.............
Pink Floyd - Wish you were here.
Put on the headphones, lay back, close you're eyes and listen to this amazing track.....
Never, ever fails to move me my freind.

Words can't really convey the feelings that I have for this song, I have so much of my life wound up in this track and this band! They left a part of their soul on each one of these records and if you listen close enough it sings to you. I'm sure that Syd turned up whilst they were recording this album, thinking he was still the lead singer? A truly monumental masterpiece .. thank you for sharing @tremendospercy

So many times over the years when I was travelling this track came to my rescue.
All in all I don't think there has been or will ever be a more influential, emotive and talented group of musicians.
Their work is etched on my soul dude as I'm sure it is with many of our generation.

One of my favourites, and the album accompanied me on my travels in the mid-1990s. In Nepal, I used to go to a bar where a local duo sang a great version of this song every night. I've never seen this video though!

Haha, I can see it now 😂
I have witnessed some truly dreadful attempts by singers in that part of the world try to recreate classics by PinkFloyd, The Eagles, The Doors etc.
Ahh the memories just come screeching back 😃 We may well have been in the same bar at the same time somewhere holding our hands over our ears! 😂

I can just imagine 😂😂 In fact I stayed in a place called the Prince Hostel and one of the guys who worked there was an amazing Princevestite... the big hair, purple velvet gear, everything but the voice... but no, this duo really were good - great voices and simple good guitar playing!

To be honest I'm not such a great fan of male singers (idk it's just like that), but after listening to some of their song on their bandcamp I have to admit that I really like it. The way they sing just has something unique and is in perfect harmony with their rhythmic play. Very cool. I think I have more to discover this week, thanks for that! :D

Good choice - I love Michael Kiwanuka.
This beautiful song is from a young band with a retro feel, folksy influences yet original, The Trembling Bells.

Glad you enjoyed it! One of their guitar players used to deliver my organic vegetables. Lovely guy. He's stopped doing it now, so hopefully he's making a full-time income from the band. I just love their music.

Ah @onetruebrother .. Brian Eno a true pioneering musical genius! Not often you get to say those words in one sentence these days so I'll use them whilst I can. Another inspired and beautiful choice my friend. indeed the words on this song paint a picture worthy of the finest gallery. A perfect example of why I love #musicmonday!

Hallo Steemian's music lovers. This time I wanna share an awesome music, I think this song can give you the spirit in the day. This is Bon Jovi's song, "Have a Nice Day". Hopefully this song can be a reference list of your music this week.

Hey dude, such a great track and equally one with an important message, these guys really new what was going on!! It's just such a shame that much modern music has been drawn into the machine. To me this is music that picks up on the hopes and fears of a generation, runs with it and gives people an outlet for their frustration. Excellent choice @venomnymous

Wow, I didn't know Michael Kiwanuk before, but Cold Little Heart is really touching. So melancholic but also very powerful. Thanks for that.
My week started a little bit happier. While taking the bus to school I am greeted every day by a heartwarming sunrise, shining on the beautiful landscape of wide plains and hills we have here in the southern and more rural part of Germany. But with the warmth also comes the 'Fernweh', a German word describing the desire to leave the daily life behind and escape it by traveling the world - especially when listening to the song I want to show you all today:
Sleep On The Floor by The Lumineers:
This time a story is not only told by the music, but also by it's visual part. And as life happens to be, it's not always a happy adventure.
Sleep On The Floor is part one of a three-part story which tells about the life changing choices in the woman's life and what the alternatives could have been. I don't want to spoil anymore as it's touching too and just leave you with part two and three:
Part two ~ 'Angela':
Part three ~ 'Cleopatra':
I hope you enjoy my choices today and have a great week.

Hey @hashkeks There is just something so profoundly beautiful about a rising sun, it lifts your heart with it and holds it high all day long. Thank you for this poignantly beautiful choice of songs.
follow your heart but hold onto your mind
I really enjoyed this journey through lifes choices and decisions. The music flows perfectly with the story and as such it just sweeps you away on a lesson of choice and regret.
Thank you for choosing these songs, I really enjoyed listening to them.

I think this song is perfect for the uplifting spirit. I usually hear Marsmello - Silence ft. Khalid, before starting my work as an editor. With the music of this EDM, I feel the sensation to be more able to focus when working.

Hey @amymya no worries my friend, I'm still listening to all the music anyway so that's cool. Great choice, multi-layered and powerfully emotive, plus I'm loving the basslines ... oh and great dancing as well!! I will try to remember to post one with some dancing next week .. not me dancing though, that really would be scary!! Thank you for the music!!

Gotta love those basslines. Feel the vibrations in you're bones... So good.
I look forward to seeing more dancing:) I'm going to get more into the tunes others have shared here today, looks like lots of good stuff :)
I've been told that my dancing skills resemble those in this vid below, but you just gotta move how the music moves you!
