Music Monday – Do I Wanna Know?

Aaaand we’re back for the 2nd ever Music Monday, lovelies, and as I was listening to an old playlist this week I re-discovered “Do I Wanna Know?” by Arctic Monkeys. Not only do I love this band in general, but one of the fans of my Thalia series sent this to me in an email and told me how much it reminded her of Marcus, the villain whose obsession with Thalia takes him over the edge into crazy land. If you’ve read the series, just listen and imagine him drunk in his house staring at all those pictures of Thalia up on his wall. Gives me the dark and shivery chills every time!

A few of my favorite lines:

“Have you no idea that you’re in deep? /

I’ve dreamt about you nearly every night this week. / …

cause there’s this tune I found that makes me think of you somehow/

and I play it on repeat, until I fall asleep, /

spillin’ drinks on my settee.”

So perfect! Anyway, while you’re listening to this and thinking of Marcus’ madness… do you have any other songs that represent characters of mine? Send them over or comment here! Maybe I’ll use it and give you a shout out on another Music Monday. Until next time, lovelies!

Music Monday – We Have it All

Feb 8, 2016 | Music Monday

Just like Thankful Thursday, this little random day-of-the-week event started because I was posting on FB and people seemed to like it. Music Monday began when I was furiously writing and started posting youtube links to songs that were landing on my writing playlists, and people loved the songs and enjoyed talking about them in the comments. (Side note: my main writing playlist is called ‘Writing Dark’, which tends to make my friend Myra Danvers laugh – but she always appreciates the music suggestions).

So, to start this off officially, and help all of us start our week’s off on the right foot, I felt like I needed to revisit the one that became an earworm for many of my friends.

PS – the video for this is just cool.

Currently, I’m working on revising and adding an extended extra to my BDSM menage book, ‘Reunited’! Keep checking the blog for snippets on the blog hops!

So, I can’t stop listening to this song. The LYRICS. His VOICE. I love it.
