K is for King Kong #atozchallenge

~ Meg ~ 36 Comments

Kong just wished to live in peace
Roam his home Skull Island at least
But captured with a shaky plan
He fell for the lovely Ann
And it was beauty which killed the beast

You saw this coming, right?  After Godzilla and all?  Kong isn’t nearly as much fun as the great radioactive lizard, because well.. he DIES at the end of the story whereas Godzilla lives to fight again.

But wait there’s more!  You heard there’s a new movie coming out, right?  Starring the amazing Tom Hiddleston!

J is for Janis Joplin #atozchallenge

~ Meg ~ 47 Comments

The lady sang through hurt and pain
Broke our hearts with her sad refrain
The angst-ridden girl
Who became known as Pearl
Had her shooting star go up in flames

I have always loved Janis.  The way she poured her whole soul into her singing.  I hope you will get a kick out of this…  The following track is me singing Janis’ song ‘Mercedes Benz’. I chose it because she sang it a cappella and that made it easier to replicate.  Don’t laugh too hard;  I poured my own soul into it!  (Actually, if you laugh, it’s fine. Trust me, I do not take myself that seriously!)
