#titlesandtunes #guiltypleasure

My guilty pleasure music-wise is John Barrowman, but I have so many favourite songs of his it was impossible for me to narrow it down!

In the end it was just easier for me to double up with book and song 😂 (I've already read Anything Goes, his first biography - this is his second).

Cinfhen He really does have a gorgeous voice! I hope to add the song you selected, once I get to the states because right now due to licensing rights I can‘t download that particular song from my region🤪 10mo
willaful Wait a minute -- that's Captain Jack!

I had no idea he was a singer, too.

mom2bugnbee @willaful Started as a musical theatre guy! He's incredible... and, yes, also Capt Jack. ☺ 10mo

Laughterhp I love him in Doctor Who, didn‘t realize he sang! 10mo
BarbaraBB Love all of this post! 10mo
jenniferw88 @Cinfhen If for any reason you can't do it in the USA, feel free to choose any of his! The only ones I don't really like are any of the songs from "Grease", Bridge Over Troubled Water, and You'll Never Walk Alone. 10mo
Cinfhen Ok 👍🏽 thanks, Jenny 💜 10mo
Rachel52 He's brilliant, I've seen him in concert a couple of times. 10mo
Cinfhen I wasn‘t able to get that song in the US either / do u want to pick one or should I choose?? I wanted to give you the option 10mo
jenniferw88 @Cinfhen can you try this one please? If not just choose one! Giving a youtube link just in case it's a Spotify thing. X https://youtu.be/SxlGNvZT3GY 10mo
Cinfhen I chose Hollywood, Jenny! I couldn‘t get The Kid inside either. Hope it‘s ok 😘 10mo
jenniferw88 @Cinfhen Hollywood is fine! Just glad you've finally managed to get one 😊 10mo
Cinfhen Thanks - who knew song licensing would be such a pain?? 10mo

@Riveted_Reader_Melissa and her #Nonfiction2022 is here!

“Can anyone guess the inspirations for this year‘s choices?
.
If these make you think of the closing of The Breakfast Club or the song B!tch by Meredith Brooks you are right. People/books can be many different things to different people depending on your POV & preconceived ideas OR many things all wrapped up in one. So have a blast fillings these categories any way you want.“

Riveted_Reader_Melissa Thanks for the repost! 😃 2y

Sorry for the non-bookish post but I received my Ancestry DNA results today. Merry Christmas to me! A total surprise, I always thought I was mostly Irish.
I had to share with my fellow UK Littens, I'm sure I'm related to some you out there! 😂😀❤

Amiable I love doing genealogy research. It's so fun to learn new things about ourselves, isn't it? 🙂 5y
Rachbb3 @Amiable It is! 😀 5y
GingerAntics Oh I loved when I got mine. I always thought I was mostly French. I‘m more UK stuff than French. Go figure. I love this technology. 5y

Rachbb3 @GingerAntics My husband is UK and French. 👍 5y
GingerAntics It‘s weird how our DNA comes out. I still have all these French names on my tree. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I have zero Norwegian names, but I suppose that does explain my extreme paleness. lol I got mine about 5 or 6 years ago now and it‘s been great watching the technology get better and getting more info. Just wait until you get update emails. I‘m so glad there is another genealogy nerd on here!!! 5y
Rachbb3 @GingerAntics I know, it's fascinating. 5y
Susannah Ooh, cool! I got mine a few months ago, and my percentages were interesting. I was hoping for a little bit of something unexpected, but it seems I‘m 100% Western European mutt as always believed. 🤣 (edited) 5y
Rachbb3 @Susannah 😂😂👍 5y
GingerAntics You‘ve got me digging into mine again. It‘s been awhile since I explored in there. Thanks for that!!! This is so cool!!! 5y
Rachbb3 @GingerAntics Have fun! 😂😀 5y
sblbooks @Rachbb3 We are very similar. I'm 86% English, Welsh & northern European. 6% Ireland and Scotland 6% German, 2% French and 2% Norwegian 5y
Dragon Merry Christmas 🎄! 💚🐉 5y
Rachbb3 @sblbooks We are close. Wow. 5y
Rachbb3 @Dragon Merry Christmas! 5y
Redwritinghood Merry Christmas!🎄🎁 5y
Rachbb3 @Redwritinghood Merry Christmas to you! 😀 5y
