On 'Musical Monday' for the @photogames I posted this picture, asking for music that matched the picture in some way.

For a moment we both thought we saw my grandfather when he was still healthy: same hat, same clothes, same posture. My mum and I don't have to speak at moments like this. We just looked at each other and knew what the other thought.]
I got SO MANY great musical recommendations! I've listened to them all and am sure some will end up in my Spotify favourites playlist. Thank you all for playing! It really felt like a ton of little gifts below the original post.
I wish I could give all of them some points, but unfortunately I can't. So after 3 glasses of wine I'm giving points to:
5th place @sukhasanasister
@sukhasanasister didn't pick a song but instead imagined the man in the photo listening to poems. Just listen to the poems to understand why I totally had to believe the man in my picture actually was listening to that instead of music.
In her own words:
Clearly, he's listening to an audiobook of poems by Robert Burns.
4th place @themonkeyzuelans
@themonkeyzuelans picked such a lovely happy song with super cute clip, I knew I had to give them points! This is a song I didn't know before and will listen to more often.
In their words:
Let's go happy with it!
3th place: @vmoldo
@vmoldo picked a gorgeous Romanian song. I can't understand a word they're saying but am touched by the emotion this language and culture can carry.
In his own words:
i'm ditching the lyrics and message for the mood of the song and i think the video helps that feeling pass through even better
2nd place @reinhard-schmid
The artwork alone had to be posted on my blog, and why not add a nice 2nd place with it for this (by the way amazing) artist for picking a song that fits the surroundings so perfectly?
In his own words:
When I saw the picture, I immediately heared "Parov Stelar - Song For The Crickets" playing in my head:
1st place @derangedvisions
@derangedvisions basically was very lucky (nah, there is no luck in good taste) he picked one of my favourite musical acts: 2CELLOS! These guys are ah-ma-zing and can convey tons of emotion through their instruments. Add their gorgeous video clips to the music and they have a fan in me for life.
In his own words:
So much emotion in this picture. I had to go with a song that matched the emotion. There are no lyrics to the song, but you can feel the emotion in the music.
CONGRATULATIONS to all these @photogames winners! Please check out the other entries below the original post to listen to even more amazing songs. I got some lovely songs from Pink Floyd and a gorgeous emotional Greek song too!
