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 Saturday, I went to see Supergrass at The Piece Hall in Halifax. I really enjoyed it – and they have a lot of songs I’d forgotten about! Here’s one of my favourites.

Supergrass: Grace

Well, we jumped all night on the trampoline
And when you kissed the sky it made your sister scream
You ate our chips
And you drank our coke
And then you showed me Mars through your telescope

Oh, Grace
Save your money for the children
Oh, Grace
Save your money for the children
Oh, Grace
Save your money for the children
Oh, Grace
Save your money for the children
Oh, Grace
Save your money for the children
Oh, Grace
Save your money, save your money, girl

Well, you sang your songs and you made us laugh
And so we captured you in a photograph
And when the stars came out, your mother called your name
But when the morning comes, we’ll get together again

Oh, Grace
Save your money for the children
Oh, Grace
Save your money for the children
Oh, Grace
Save your money for the children
Oh, Grace
Save your money for the children
Oh, Grace
Save your money for the children
Oh, Grace
Save your money, save your money, girl

Save your money
Save your money for the
Save your money for the children
You save your money for the children

Ahh…

Oh, Grace
Save your money for the children
Oh, Grace
Save your money, save your money, girl

Everybody there’s lovin’ a part in the game
