b5media Music Channel Sunday Link Love – 7/27/08

Sending out the link love to all the b5media Music Channels today, as this will be the last Sunday Link Love post on Crooner Culture. As business is business, the music channel is losing over a dozen blogs this month, and Crooner Culture is one of them.

Repost: Dean Martin, Queen, and My Trip To Italy

Okay, so here’s proof that I’m a weirdo in having been a fan of this stuff since I was a kid. It also goes to show you how music can unite people in the most wonderful of ways. Grab an espresso and relax, this one’s cute.
When I was 15, I was a foreign exchange student to Italy for the summer. It was without a doubt the best ever summer of my entire life, even up until now. I lived with a fabulous family in Ancona and Marcelli Beach (yep, they owned a beach house) that took me all over the …read more
