Thank God it's Monday!
And Mariposa is on her Monday Fever once again!
Love is in the corner, and MANIC MONDAY welcomes the week with HEARTS. Yes, the theme for this week is HEART.
This is a photo I took years ago...yes, I left my heart at the shore...of love.
Crown Princess is hosting this week's FUN MONDAY, and she says -
Music plays a vital role in most of our lives. It is everywhere. I want to hear the ONE song that is you. The song that whenever it is heard, you smile. I am not looking for the soundtrack of your life, just that one song. Your friends hear it and think of you. You can post the video, the lyrics, the wav file. However you want to post it is great.
So, that makes today a MUSIC MONDAY! Oh what fun...they share the same theme.
So here is that ONE song that always make me smile...because people close to me always associate this song with me...I would love to think in a good way! ;)

She's Always A Woman
by Billy Joel
She can kill with a smile
She can wound with her eyes
She can ruin your faith with her casual lies
And she only reveals what she wants you to see
She hides like a child,
But she's always a woman to me
She can lead you to love
She can take you or leave you
She can ask for the truth
But she'll never believe
And she'll take what you give her, as long as it's free
Yeah, she steals like a thief
But she's always a woman to me
CHORUS:
Oh--she takes care of herself
She can wait if she wants
She's ahead of her time
Oh--and she never gives out
And she never gives in
She just changes her mind
And she'll promise you more
Than the Garden of Eden
Then she'll carelessly cut you
And laugh while you're bleedin'
But she'll bring out the best
And the worst you can be
Blame it all on yourself
Cause she's always a woman to me
--Mhmm--
Bridge
CHORUS:
Oh--she takes care of herself
She can wait if she wants
She's ahead of her time
Oh--and she never gives out
And she never gives in
She just changes her mind
She is frequently kind
And she's suddenly cruel
She can do as she pleases
She's nobody's fool
And she can't be convicted
She's earned her degree
And the most she will do
Is throw shadows at you
But she's always a woman to me
--Mhmm--

I like the picture! It's amazing how rocks will take on those different forms.
We're not in the same time zone anymore. (sigh)
:)
the photo is lovely!!!

Happy MM! That is a remarkable heart-shaped rock...
Feb 11, 1990 was the day that Nelson Mandela was released from prison in South Africa. That is a brother with some serious heart! He is the topic of Manic Monday meme this week. Please visit if you have time or inclination.
peace, Villager
This is awesome. I love this song. Great choice.
I love your heart. Very well done. Have a great MM. :)
Lovely photo, and have a wonderful day.
I love the heart picture!!
I just found a heart shaped rock this weekend. But mine is not as cool as yours.
I keep reading Fun Monday posts saying "oh my gosh, I should have picked that song for my post" and yours is another one! Perfect choice.
Billy Joel is always a good choice. Did I read that he is soon to give his last concert at Shea Stadium?
Great song and a great picture.
What a beautiful song. The lyics are awesome. Thanks for playing
I love music and this fun Monday is making me sing along...
Enjoy being the Woman people think of when they hear this song..
Manic Monday : Love your lost heart on the beach, lol ! Looks very nice.
Fun Monday : There is no song fitting on me, lol ! I couldn't find any.
Interesting rock, very pretty.
Happy Manic Monday!
So many great songs this Monday!
What a great rock.
You've chosen a great song for Fun Mon.
I love that song!! One of my all time favorites.
The song on my blog you were asking about is called Good Night Kiss by Steve and Annie Chapman. Glad you liked it so much :)
Nice post for Monday! I LOVE your cool rock photo. It really looks like a piece of coral. I am a beach fanatic too...wish I was there right now.
I like the idea of a song for yourself. I would have to think on that one some. You have a good one with Billy Joel.

I have to say I've never really been Billy Joel fan, but I've always loved that song. :)
Beautiful photo of the heart shaped rock as well.
Great song and what a fantastic one to be associated with!! Great pic BTW too!!

You do so well at blending several themes. One could almost call it
Love On The Rocks
I love this song.
LOve this, Mariposa! That heart on the shore is beautiful! Love the Billy Joel song! Thanks for visiting me! :)
First of all....you just can't go wrong with Billy Joel!!! And second....LOVE the song.
Ah, a combo monday post!
I love, love, love Billy Joel. That was like the theme song of my young teen years...
I so remember that song. It is frighteningly accurate.
Terrific song. I love Billy Joel, especially his older stuff.
Billy J. now there is some REAL music I miss......
I forgot about that lovely song. So beautiful.
I have always loved that song! Ahhh.
I think it's neat how you participate in a few mondy things and tie them together so nicely. :)
Hey there, what a good song for you! Glad that you shared it with us this Monday. And what a nifty picture of the heart. I really like it.
Great song!
I love that song, and the picture is gorgeous!
I love Billy Joel. He's a song writing genius!
That is a fantastic song!!
Beautiful! Billy Joel is so classic.
great song!! I love the heart rock also!!
Damn this is a difficult one. I'm not sure what one song everyone associates with me. OOOH what about Avril Lavigne's Anything but ordinary? I have some of the lyrics to the song posted on my blog.
SO many good songs. This has been fun. Was that a TV show for the video?
I love that song. I grew up listening to it and knowing that's how I wanted to be.
Sorry I'm late commenting on last week's Fun Monday.
I forgot all about that song! GREAT choice!
