This week I’m really honored to share the #2 Spotlight at XmasDolly’s Monday’s Music Moves Me Meme.
They say that music cuts through all languages and barriers. From Bob Marley who is one of the main icons in Reggae music. From the west Reggae music has made it’s way all over to the east.
I can hear the signature beats throughout the song and it really puts one in a real laid back mode.
Questions:
1. Crunchy or smooth peanut butter?

Crunchy Peanut Butter of course. Love the nutty taste.
2. What is your favorite color Rose?
Blue roses are my favourite.
I received that bouquet above for Valentines Day this year.
3. Do you remove your shoes when you walk into your home?

Yes. I feel that it’s cleaner not to walk around the house with shoes on. We have a shoe rack at the door and the shoes are kept there. If the kids want we do have bedroom slippers for them but the floor seldom gets cold as we live in the tropics.
4. What is your favorite season?

I’m going to say “Gift Giving Season” as we don’t experience the four seasons over here in Singapore. Everyday is either hot and humid or wet and humid.
5. Approximately how many hours a day do you spend blogging?
If you are counting uninterrupted hours that would be 1-2hrs. However given my crazy schedule of juggling the kids and household I rarely have more then 10-15 min in front of the PC each time. The post that I am writing can be sitting in the draft folder for 5-6 hours before it is finally completed and ready to be published.

Well, there’s a bit of education for you. I had no idea reggae by these boys. That song is very good. Thanks for the lesson in music. Have a great day. Already following you.

Congrats on being a spotlight dancer this week. I love the east meets west sound to that reggae sound. Very cool! Thanks for sharing it!
Christmas is my favorite holiday too but I’m a creamy peanut butter person.

That’s really cool and you’re right, you can definitely hear the underlying reggea sounds un the music. I love the instrument that is being played in the front, such a great sound.
Thanks for playing along this week and I hope you post another song or two next Monday. I am following you on GFC now.

I know what you mean – we have two seasons here – with varying degrees of hot. I’d love to actual Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter.
