Music Monday — What are you listening to? (Pets Edition)

cover image source: Giphy

Alright, I know this is a weird edition, but hear me out! Those of you with pets, do you have certain theme songs for your different pets? I bet you do. Some of you might even have pets that are named after songs! Don't have a pet at all, don't worry... just imagine you have a pet. What would you sing to your imaginary pet? Haha, yep, like I said, it's weird. Just humor me and roll with it!

How we do

In this weekly series, folks can chime in and drop links to whatever it is they've been listening to recently + browse others suggestions. You can follow the suggested genre if you'd like, but don't feel confined to it; you're free to suggest whatever you wanna. 🙌

If you're interested in having other discussions about music, consider following the aptly named #music discussions organization.


Alright, alright, let's listen to some tunes. Note: you can embed a link to your song using the following syntax {% embed https://... %}. This should work for most common platforms!

Looking forward to listening to y'all's suggestions! 🎶

Haha! Yeah, like I said, it's a weird one right? But hey, you don't have to have a pet to enjoy it.

If you did have a pet would music would you play it? 😆

I can't think of any theme songs for my dog, but I do enjoy pretending like she is an older Italian man (she very much has this energy), so I would imagine something like this would be fitting for her (LOL).

I have a cat named Jade that wasn't technically named after the song "Jade" by Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeroes, but she might as well have been because it has become her theme song. Enjoy!

There is a hard rock japanese classic called "Linda Linda" by the Blue Hearths.
Linda happens to be the name of my dog
Also my japanese friend Kaoru made a dog kimono for Linda
So taking all that together, I did this thing

Also I love argentine tango
and found this thing here: Happy birthday, tango style

How to create series like this?

That's a great question Soumyadeep! We have a helpful guide here for ya that should help walk you through it:

One thing that I believe is missing from that guide is that when there's only one post live in a series, you can't actually tell it's in a series — i.e. the series name doesn't publicly appear. It's only after you post the second article in the series, that you can actually see the series name and have the ability to scroll through the different entries in the series.

So, if you follow all the steps above, just know that you won't actually be able to see the series info until after you post the second article in the series. Feel free to hit me back if you have any questions!

Lol! All you have to do is say the title and the song gets stuck in my head. But yes, perfect fit.
