M is for Michael Bublé, Muse and My Chemical Romance
As I mentioned in my theme-reveal post, this month will be all about music and how it inspires my writing.
Michael Bublé made a splash with “Home”. I like what he does with his music – especially the jazz quality to his songs. His songs are on my background music playlists – it’s great to listen to when I just need to be calm and get through admin.
Favourite album: “Call Me Irresponsible” Favourite song: “Call Me Irresponsible”
Muse came to my attention with the first “Twilight” movie. (Remember “Supermassive Black Hole” playing during the baseball game?) Depending on what I write, they are on my drafting, rewriting and editing playlists.
Favourite album: “The 2nd Law” Favourite song: “Supremacy”
My Chemical Romance isn’t something I can listen to all the time, but their songs are powerful. I first heard of them when the song “Welcome to the Black Parade” was played at camp. They are on my drafting playlists.
Favourite album: “The Black Parade” Favourite song: “I don’t love you”
Word of the day: masque
According to Collins English dictionary: masque n 1 a dramatic entertainment of the 16th and 17th centuries in England, consisting of pantomime, dancing, dialogue, and song, often performed at court 2 the words and music written for a masque
If you want to hear the songs from the various bands, click on the links on the song titles (it’ll take you to YouTube). I’ll leave you with something sweet from Michael.
Do you like Michael Bublé, Muse or My Chemical Romance? Do you have a favourite music group/artist that starts with an “M”?

Good choices. I know the Frank Sinatra version of the song. I frequently imagine one of my characters stripping to that song. What? I didn’t say that. Hey, look, a distraction!
My Sunday Stealing post mentioned you. And Janet’s comment does too. You should come laugh with us.
Thanks, J — I’m on my way over. Oh, look, a butterfly!
I liked that song and video by Michael Buble-
. It was fun and I usually don’t associate his music with fun. Speaking of fun, my M musicians The Monkees!
I’m glad I could show you a different side to Michael 🙂
Does it get any better than Michael Buble? Even Adele may be second to him.
I know, right? Though it depends on my mood whether I’m listening to Michael or Adele 😉
LOL, you’re right. So many great M musicians.
I didnt’ know Muse was in the Twilight films.
Oh boy, a bunch of new ones. I’ve a lot to listen to. I’ve been listening to all the songs that I haven’t heard before as I go through them — which is a lot o them. It’s been a pleasure.
