Unfamiliar with this week's tune? Hear it here.
1) Madonna begins this song by telling us, "I'm waiting." What's something you're waiting for today? For the rain to stop.
2) She sings that dancing gives her a feeling so good she hopes it will never end. What reliably lifts your spirits? Cuddling a cat.
3)
As a school girl in Michigan, Madonna was a good student but could be
disruptive. Classmates recall her doing cartwheels in the halls between
classes. Can you do a cartwheel?
4)
It's not surprising that a girl from the Detroit area would love cars.
Madonna's car collection is valued at more than $2 million. The one she
seems to drive most often is a 2022 Cadillac Escalade ESV. Insurance
industry data tells us Americans typically keep their cars for 8 years.
How long have you had your current vehicle? I don't have a car.
5) She has referred to Nancy Sinatra as one of her idols, saying "These Boots Were Made for Walking" and its accompanying video impressed her when she was a little girl. What pop song brings back memories from your childhood? As a 3-year-old girl, I got very excited whenever this came on the car radio and sang along as best I could, much to the amusement of my parents.
6) Madonna suffers from brontophobia, or the fear of thunder and lightening. Are you afraid of storms? Not usually. I get a little concerned when tree branches slam into my living room window, but that only happens when the wind really whips up.
7)
In 1985, when this song was popular, the Titanic wreckage was discovered. There have been at least a dozen movies about that ill-fated ship. Have you seen any of them? I saw Leo and Kate, of course. There's one from the 1950s starring Robert Wagner and Barbara Stanwyck that I've seen a time or two, also.
8) Also in 1985, Bruce Willis became a star with a hit show about a detective agency. Can you name it? (Extra non-existent points if you can recall the agency's name.) Moonlighting, and the Blue Moon Detective Agency. Wherever shall I spend those extra points?

Random question: Describe your perfect ice cream sundae. Vanilla ice cream, hot fudge, whipped cream, chopped nuts and a cherry. Pretty standard, huh?
You get tree branches hitting your window? What floor are you on? For some reason I've always imagined your apartment being "up there." So if branches are hitting the window I'd be a bit worried, too!
ReplyDeleteMy next door neighbor just had their tree trimmed, its branches were overhanging the fence, and on windy nights they’d hit my house. Is there someone you can talk to about getting a tree service to trim some branches?
