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.

On Thursday, I’ll be seeing The Corrs in Halifax. I have been listening to their music a lot recently to refamiliarise myself with their songs, and they have a lot of good ones! Here’s one I’ve recently been reminded of.

The Corrs: Radio

Yeah, yeah, yeah-

It’s late at night and I’m feeling down
There are couples standing on the street
Sharing summer kisses and silly sounds

So, I step inside, pour a glass of wine
With a full glass and an empty heart
I search for somethin’ to occupy my mind

‘Cause you are in my head
Swimming forever in my head
Tangled in my dreams
Swimming forever

So, I listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
And all the songs we used to know
So, I listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
Remember where we used to go

Now, it’s morning light and it’s cold outside
Caught up in a distant dream
I turn and think that you are by my side

So, I leave my bed and I try to dress (I try to dress)
Wonderin’ why my mind plays tricks and fools me into thinking you are there

But, you’re still in my head
Swimming forever in my head
Not lying in my bed
Just swimming forever

So, I listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
And all the songs we used to know
So, I listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
Remember where we used to go

So, I listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
And all the songs we used to know
So, I listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
Remember where we used to go

You are in my head
Swimming forever

So, I listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
And all the songs we used to know
So, I listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
Remember where we used to go

I listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
To all the songs we used to know
I listen to the radio (listen to the radio)
To all the songs, all the songs we used to know

Yeah (listen to the radio)
All the songs we used to know
(Listen to the radio)
All the songs we used to know
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah (listen to the radio)

Songwriters: James Corr / Sharon Corr / Caroline Corr / Andrea Jane Corr
