Song of the Day #3,097: ‘Texas’ – Charlie Daniels Band
For this year’s Christmas break, my family is heading to the great state of Texas (specifically, Austin and San Antonio). Over the next two weeks, I’ll leave my faithful blog readers with two handfuls of songs about the Lone Star State.
Song of the Day #3,096: ‘Funny the Way It Is’ – Dave Matthews Band
Song of the Day #3,095: ‘My First Mine’ – Pavement
Song of the Day #3,094: ‘Who I Thought You Were’ – Santigold
The movies I’ve featured this week make up slots two through six on my top ten list, following Moana in the top spot. Rounding out the top ten are Richard Linklater’s Everybody Wants Some!!, the Coen Brothers’ Hail, Caesar! then maybe The Nice Guys and Finding Dory.
Of course I haven’t seen Moonlight yet, nor Arrival, Jackie or a handful of others with a good shot at my list. All in good time. For now, though, I’m pretty happy with my top ten in what’s turned out to be a very solid year at the movies.
