Welcome back to another #MusicMonday! It’s not about books, but about music, and I’m looking forward to presenting you with a taste of my playlist. It’s the brainchild of Drew from The Tattooed Book Geek, but my inspiration comes from the lovely Claire from A Knight’s Reads. Every Monday, I’ll be choosing a song to share with you. The Spotify playlist is here and it will be updated as I go along.

Over the last few weeks, I’ve shared a lot of 90s songs. This week, it’s not a 90s song, although it would be ingenuous to suggest I’ve made a complete departure from that decade! Next week, I promise to spread my wings a little further! However, on Thursday, I saw Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds. As usual, at the time of writing, I’ve not been yet, but I’m looking forward to it so I’d like to share one of my favourites from their repertoire.

Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds: Holy Mountain

Dance dance, if you do that dance
I’m gonna let you join my one man band
Be my doll, be my baby doll
Come get to know me like the back of your hand
I like the name hanging on that chain
I like the way you do the push and the shove
You can blow my mind if you’re that way inclined
All that I know is that you fell from above

She fell, she fell, right under my spell
Oh now pretty baby come on!
She danced, she danced, right into my hands
Oh now pretty baby come on!
Be my butterfly you and I will shake it
We can roll in at the top of the morn’
And if you feel the need
I’ll send you Godspeed
To meet your maker at the break of the dawn

Get out of the doldrums baby, now!
You liar, I’ll set you on fire
Get out of the doldrums baby, now!

Do your thing on the beat of the bang
I’ll put a melody inside of your head
No need to shout, what you bitching about?
I think those things are better left unsaid
She had a look you won’t find in a book
And she smelt like 1969
You could blow my mind if you’re that way inclined
All I know is I’m gonna make you mine
She fell, she fell, right under my spell
Oh now pretty baby come on!
She danced, she danced, right into my hands
Oh now pretty baby come on!
Be my butterfly
You and I will shake it
We can roll in at the top of the morn’
And if you feel the need
I’ll send you Godspeed
To meet your maker at the break of the dawn
Get out of the doldrums baby, now!
You liar, I’ll set you on fire
Get out of the doldrums baby, now!

She fell, she fell, right under my spell
She fell, she fell, right under my spell
She fell, she fell, right under my spell
She fell, she fell, right under my spell
She fell, she fell, right under my spell
She fell, she fell, right under my spell
She fell, she fell, right under my spell
She fell, she fell, right under my spell
She fell, she fell, right under my spell
She fell, she fell, right under my spell
She fell, she fell, right under my spell
She fell, she fell, right under my spell
She fell, she fell, right under my spell
She fell, she fell, right under my spell
She fell, she fell, right under my spell
