Day 30: A song that tells a good story

Also story told in the original Walking Tall movie starring Joe Don Baker. Oddly enough it was announced yesterday he likely killed wife and staged his own assassination.

No question, the 80s we're gonna be this if it fit the bonus, but it very sadly did not.

Temporary Secretary - Paul McCartney

Day 30: Good Story

I don't believe there's another choice. Epic storytelling, great bluegrass feel, inspired a Marvel character.

Rocky Raccoon - The Beatles

Day 31: Non English

When I read non-English I was a little concerned how I'd finish off Beatles month with this, but the second song in the medley, Sun King, contains a very non-English section (a very non-Anything section, really). They make up Spanish, Italian, and Portuguese lyrics that mostly mean nothing because they are gibberish in those languages.

But listening to it on its own seems silly when you can listen to the entire medley.

(Yes it has English too, if you want fully non-English you can always listen to the all German Sie Liebt Dich).

Abbey Road Medley - The Beatles

Day 31: A non-English song

I know it's a cover of Ritchie Valens, but I've always preferred this version:

This marks the first time I have completed an entire month of the Monthly Song Challenge!

Diese kalte Nacht - FAUN

I've never heard of this band, but I immediately love it.
Also, their German must be terrible because I could understand nearly every word of it.
