Isle Be Back

Shopping on That Pondering Aisle

And Wondering About

Song Titles That Start With "I'll". . .  

 

Some background: As often mentioned in and outside ActiveRainLand, year-end is on the minds of many of us these days.  I admit to participating. Although this final month of 2022 may be half-over, in some respects there’s still a lot going on. 

 

Exit interviews for some and orientations set to start for others. Business, new and ongoing, continues.  As do many activities with reasons to celebrate as well as moments to remember.  All sorts of things seem to be a part of that trajectory.  

 

 

And speaking of trajectories, some things seem to occur overnight even as their road to being discovered has been a much longer path. 

 

 

Evidence of this phenomenon may be viewed as widespread although I typically refrain from such hyperbole. Proper Preparation and Planning plus lots of time is also part of "overnight sensation" examples. Things-in-process can be seen and unseen.

 

Meanwhile, I digress.  And if you care to wander in and wonder - please do.  If you can think of a favorite song title that starts with "I'll" (Isle or Aisle, too) - I'll be reading. . .

Hi Michael -  Like so many others the first ting to my mind is, I'll be home for Christmas.

Grant Schneider - even if this post had been written in July, I think that song would be well-remembered.

Hello Michael Jacobs and half over in December,  I figure I had lots of time yet to do my Christmas shopping.

Will Hamm - time seems to have a habit of sneaking up on you - is that a part of a bigger plan?

Most of the ones I can think of have been posted, however one of my favorites from my college days by Sting and the Police was Every breath you take ...."I'll be watching you.

Buzz Mackintosh - classics from other eras still remain memorable.  That's for sure.

Hello, Michael Jacobs. It appears that most of the songs have already been mentioned above, but my favorite this time of the year is "I'll Be Home for Christmas". It really put you in mind for the Christmas Spirit. 

Dec 16, 2022 08:42 AM
Michael Jacobs

Jerry Newman - the mindset can be influenced by what is happening around us.  And that particular tune seems to be omnipresent.  In ActiveRainLand and in many other places too.

The song may sound like "I'll" for someone with missing teeth:

 

"All I want for Christmas is My Two Front Teeth"

Jeff Masich-Scottsdale AZ Associate Broker,MBA,GRI - a memorable tune and something from my past, I can still remember.

Hi Michael- I'll Be Home for Christmas first came to mind as well as the song "I'll Be Seeing You" and though not a song the phrase from The Terminator "I'll Be Back"

And now, I'm off to search for more songs that begin with "I'll..."

Dec 16, 2022 11:18 AM

Kathy Streib - the possibilities are endless with many songs, sayings and quotes, movies as well as memorable lines and catch phrases that capture our attention.  I enjoy the comments where members share what sparks ideas for them.  Thanks for adding your Arnold recollection.

Hi Michael,

I was trying to find a song that nobody had on the list. I came up with "I'll Be Seeing You" from 1938.  As I started to post, I noticed that Kathy had it on her list!  Oh well!  I'll have to try a little harder.  haha

BTW - I googled the Alphabetical Song list - I didn't see any songs starting with "Aisle" or "Isle".

Sheri Sperry - MCNE® - thinking of song titles has never been my strong suit but I do like some guessing games.  Good luck as you find additional solutions.   Maybe the theme song from Gilligan's Island can offer some inspiration too.  🤣 Well, kinda.

"I'll Be Home For Christmas" is the only song I can thing of right now!

Myrl Jeffcoat - it's certainly an "audience" favorite.

An old favorite but timeless..."I'll stand by you" - the Pretenders.

Diana Zaccaro Broker Associate - while the song title or its lyrics don't immediately come to mind, I remember the group and the cover of one of their albums (that in itself, likely dates me somewhat).

Michael Jacobs - When it comes to Christmas, of course I'll be Home for Christmas pops into my head automatically. Another one that comes to mind at many old weddings or anniversaries is I'll Always Love you. 

As far as quotes go, I'll be back," by Arnold Schwdistinctivearzenegger in the Terminator. Even the tone of Arnold's words is distinctive!

Patricia Feager, MBA, CRS, GRI,MRP - distinctive voices can definitely make (and leave) an impression.  Even writing this reply to your comment has a bit of an Arnold tone to it.  🙃

Michael, thinking more of "Isle" this morning, which would probably be much warmer than here today!

Well as a country music fan I have to say I'll Name The Dogs by Blake Shelton is an awesome song.

Dec 17, 2022 07:47 AM
Michael Jacobs

Sharon Tara - my knowledge of any music is rather limited, especially the country genre.  That said I know the name Blake Shelton but ask me to identify him out of a crowd and I might be "lost".

I’ll be home for Christmas comes to mind when I hear Bing Crosby this time of year Michael 🎅

Michael Jacobs

Paul S. Henderson, REALTOR®, CRS - you're joining an impressive club - or is it a choir - that has chosen this longtime favorite holiday tune as the one that comes to mind.

Michael:

I thought of several but in reading the comments I see others thought of them first. Guess I'm not original.

Jeff Dowler, CRS - some longtime favorites are well-remembered by many.  I think that's only natural.

I am not worthy of the Bing Crosby aficionados but I do like that song. When I was in the Navy I spent 4 Christmases in a row and I would hear this song being played on the ship 🎅

Endre Barath, Jr. - my wordsmithery continues to be a work-in-progress.  And that's considering that work is highly subjective.

As Endre Barath, Jr. shared, you are most definitely a wordsmith! 

When I read your title, my mind went to Fair Isle sweaters!! Of course, "I'll be Home for Christmas" and Jackson-5's "I'll be there."

Happy New Year, Michael!
