Vision is one thread in the theme of "Sound and Vision" on Jukebox Friday Night, and a second song from the same performer (yay!) –
Mick Ronson, "I'd Give Anything to See You" (recorded 1976; released 1999)
It's a beautiful song …
More colours for the theme of "Sound and Vision" on Jukebox Friday Night, and I'll follow this with another vision-themed song from the same performer (yay!) –
Mick Ronson, "Colour Me" (1994)
"Colour me, colour me, colour me
You make it better when you colour me …"
Love Mick's singing voice as much as his guitar playing!
January 31st, 2024, is Jukebox Friday Night with the theme "School Days".
School days can be hard, but still you're growing up.
Another David Bowie song …
"Never got lost on this road before
Never saw a scene on the street before
Never got chose with the rest of the boys
So I must have needed something more …"
Mick Ronson, "Growing Up and I'm Fine" (1974)
Happy heavenly birthday David Bowie, RIP and RIP Mick Ronson too.
What is the connection between My Way and Life on Mars? This video explains.
"Ziggy Stardust" is a song by the English singer-songwriter #DavidBowie from his 1972 album #TheRiseAndFallOfZiggyStardustAndTheSpidersFromMars. Co-produced by Bowie and #KenScott, he recorded it at #TridentStudios in London in November 1971 with his backing band the Spiders from Mars—comprising #MickRonson, #TrevorBolder and #MickWoodmansey. Lyrically, the song is about Ziggy Stardust, a bisexual alien rock star who acts as a messenger for extraterrestrial beings.

Sticking with "Hey Grandma", but this is the song written by Skip Spence for Moby Grape, but the version I know and like is –
Mick Ronson, "Hey Grandma" (1976, released 1999)
Okay, the lyrics are meaningless …
"Hey Grandma, you're so young
Your old man's just a boy
It's been a long time this time, pow pow pow …"
#MickRonson – Slaughter on 10th Avenue (1974). Best known for nimble guitar work behind David Bowie and Ian Hunter, Mick Ronson shows a more eclectic side on his debut solo LP. A competent singer with an emotive edge more cabaret than rock and roll, Ronson brings a dramatic flair to covers of “Love Me Tender” and the Richard Rodgers showtune/ title track. “Only After Dark” is the set’s one knees-up rocker – a forerunner to the new wave Ronson helped inspire.

Jukebox Friday Night, and the theme is either songs we identify with personally, or songs that show the artist(s) expressing their identities or truths.
I will confess an immense love and admiration for Mick Ronson, and play up my Yorkshire/Sheffield heritage (actually, Cawood) to boot –
Mick Ronson, "Hard Life" (1976, released 1999)
Listen carefully at 04:26 …

Friday 17 May is another Jukebox Friday Night, but this time the theme is Rainbows for International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia.
The first thing that comes to mind for me –
"Colour me and make me feel stronger
Something exotic and new, something that won't fade too soon …"
Mick Ronson, "Colour Me" (1994)

Jukebox Friday Night is for people and things Gone Too Soon. This quiet gentleman (the term is correct) made it to 46.
Mick Ronson, "Slaughter on 10th Avenue" (1974)
He got Aynsley Dunbar into the studio to play drums and percussion, and Mike Garson to play keyboards. It's a beautiful instrumental track penned by Richard Rodgers, and Ronson's guitar part simply soars.
