Danny G's SPECIAL Dino-Amore Month Sunday Serenade with Dino: "Senza Fine"

 Welcome back, mi amici. 

Grab a glass of vino & get comfy. Week two of Dino-Amore Month continues! 

It's time to daydream with Dean & I is 'bout to lay some smooooth Dino-croonin' on youse. Haha!! 

Well, pals...as we all know...the world works in mysterious ways. Kinda like Dean. Yes, pallies...it's true. Let's me explain. 

Now, I already had a cool cool swoonin' tune all set for today's Serenade. When outta the blue blue skies... I say's to myself..."I could go for a cup o' tea" 

Needed somethin' real hot to warm my bones...after all the snow shovelin' I been doin'! Haha!! 

So...as I'm gettin' ready to probably burn my throat on the scaldin' water...I just happened to notice there was a little note on the teabags tag. This is what it said. And I quote..."The beauty of the soul is constant, continuous & endless." 

Well! Let me tell youse nice nice Dino-holics...this COMPLETELY sent me in a whole new Dino-direction for this week's Dino-Amore serenade! 

"Senza Fine"...is ...without ANY doubt...the ONLY tune that I could pick! 

Translated from Italiano..."Never Ending or Endless." Just like my tea tag said! Haha!! 

Dean sent me his message! 

This is his vibe he wanted me to send to youse! 

Youse think so, pallies? 

Call me crazy, pals...but I believe in these little signs! 

This BEA U TI FUL tune explains how love should be. How we should feel. Dino knew that. Don't hold back, my friends! 

Love is meant to be shared! 

Unconditionally!  

And as I said here before, pals...it don't matter if it's your Husband, Wife, Mom or Dad...dog, cat, golfball or meatball! Just share some love!!! Hahaha!!! 

OK, pals...youse take it from here! 

Enjoy the moment & spread some Dino-love 'round! 

Ciao, mi amici!

Danny G's SPECIAL Dino-Amore Month Sunday Serenade with Dino: "I'm In The Mood For Love"

 Welcome back, mi amici! 

Welcome lovers! Young & old...shy & bold...short or tall...large or small...Dino-Amore Month 2022 is here & it's time to SWOON!! 

Yea yea, pals...I know! I'm startin' a couple days early. But, my fellow Dino-holics...I simply couldn't waste a whole week of Dino-Amore...waitin' on February! 

Now, where was I? O yes...Ahhhhhhhhh…

This VERY special Serenade is gonna kick off a month FULL of the HOTTEST...SEXIEST...SIZZILINIST...Dino-jams this side of the ol' galaxy!!! Ha! 

Can youse feel the love in the air?! Haha!! 

Yup...Amore has taken over our swingin' little blog! 

For the next few weeks...L.O.V.E takes precedent & Dino is leadin' the charge, pallies!  It's time once 'gain to TRULY evaluate our DEEPEST FEELINS'...our MOSTEST POWERFUL PASSIONS...our "slap me in the face to calm me down" EMOTIONS!!! Hahaha!!! 

Now, pals...these are merely thoughts off the top of my love-drenched head! I ain't even gettin' started with the TRUE TRUEST excitement that Dean is gonna bring to these here Serenades all month long! 

Man, pallies...I can hardly wait to jump into our first croon! 

I thinks I is gonna start thins' off real smooth. 

A cool cool Dino-tune to ease us into the lovin'. 

Yea...I found us somethin' real light & chill for today. 

Grabbed this bea u ti ful gem off Dean's show, pals! "I'm In the Mood for Love". 

'Nothin' better than Ol' Dino teachin' us 'bout the age old art of lovin', face to face! No better professor to advise us on romance, either! 

But, mi amici...I thinks we ALL need to figure thins' out on our own. Right? Yup. We never seem to take the best advice when it comes to the heart. We all gotta learn the hard way, my friends. But...it's a fun fun ride either way! Ain't it? Yea...That's life! That's love! Haha!! 

Hey, pallies...I bet we wouldn't change a thin'. 

Live & Love & Learn! 

OK...let's let Dean do his thin'! He speaks for us all! 

Soak in the amore, mi amici! It's in the air!!! Along with 'bout a foot or two of snow...nailin' Ol' New England right now! Haha!! 

O well, pals. Only 49 days 'til Spring! 

Ciao!

Danny G's Sunday Serenade with Dino: "The Things We Did Last Summer"

 Hey there, mi Dino-diggin' amici! 

Welcome, one & all...guys & gals...dames & dudes! 

So, how's my Dino-peeps doin' this week? 

Hopefully GREAT! 

Thins' 'round here ain't too bad. Weathers been decent. Days have been extra frigid lately...but sunny. 

Hey pallies...no problemo! 'Cause wee bit, by wee bit, the days is gettin' longer & longer! Sun is risin' earlier & earlier! We is slowly creepin' towards warmer days, my friends! 

I know...I'm jumpin' the gun here, pals. But...we is 1/3 the ways through Winter...& I'm already gettin' Spring fever!! Haha!! 

Youse too? I bet! 

So, pals...here's what I'm thinkin'. A "chilled-out"..."cooly-mellow" Dino-jam...that will bring those comfy, warmer days to mind, for this week's Serenade. 

Somethin' relaxin'...to help us through our Winter pilgrimage. 

I is also wantin' to get us ready for an up & comin' month of PURE PURE Dino-passion! Next week we will be on the cusp of "Dino-Amore Month"! 

So, today I am reachin' for a tune that will transition Dino's wintery coolness into a "Pre-Amore" vibe! 

Are youse feelin' me, pallies?! Cool! 

We need somethin' to kick back to. 

Maybe with a friend...maybe solo...with a glass of vino. 

Either way, pallies...I'm feelin' some "The Things We Did Last Summer", today. 

Gonna reach for Dean's "A Winter Romance" al b um...one last time, mi amici. Youse with me?! Good! 

Nothin' better to do on these chilly kinda days...than hang with Dino...& just drift away. Take my advice with this one, ol' friends o' mine! Nothins' more peaceful. 

OK, pallies. We'll set our sights on warmer days & a month-long journey through Dean's MOST romantico jams! 

Can't wait!!! 

Ciao!

Danny G's Sunday Serenade with Dino: "Baby, It's Cold Outside"

 Hey, pals...can I asks a question? 

Is it cold 'nough for youse "chilly-weather-lovin" Dino-holics, yet?! Haha!! 

Oh well, mi amici...it's January...get's used to it for a bit. 

Actually...hasn't been too bad, though. Some days are cold...some days are nice! Crazy Winter so far! Gots me comin' & goin'! Haha!! 

Wish Ol' Mother Nature would just make up her mind & get through these frosty covered days! All this weather changin' is makin' your pal, Danny G, dizzy! Haha!! 

Oh well, mi amici. 'Tis the season. 

The good news is, my Spring countdown is in FULL Dino-gear...& 'cordin' to my calculations...we gots ONLY 63 COOL COOL days to go! 

Ahhhhhh!!! I know...I know! Sounds like FOREVER! But...time flies, pallies! 

Before we knows it...the blue birds will be singin' & Springtime days will be swingin'!  

OK pals...with WARM thoughts in mind...let's gets to today's Serenade! 

I, once 'gain, went back to Dean's "Winter Romance" al b um,  for this one! 

Well...why wouldn't I?!!! It's wintery magic set to vinyl, mi amici! Haha!! 

Let's imagine we is sittin' on some warm tropic sands, my friends. Dino's warm warm vocals siftin' through the air...cool Summer breezes blowin' & the last thin' on our minds is icy days & snowin'! Now THAT'S a nice thought, pallies! 

Yup...sounds great, pals. 

But for now..."Baby, It's Cold Outside!" 

DEF I NATE LY!!! 

Well, mi amici...it's time for me to scram. Got's places to go...& peeps to meet. 

Actually...I just wanna get to this swoonin' croon of a wintery Dino-tune! Haha! 

Oh, & btw, pals...I'm wonderin' WHERE our fearless leader, DMP, is too! I'm sure he'll pop up soon. 

But for now, I'm just gonna keep doin' what I do...& hopin' he's comin' back soon. 

OK... Stay warm pals...only 63 days to go! 

Ciao!

No problem! 

Actually, stayin' warm was never so damn cool, my friends! Ha!

Danny G's Sunday Serenade with Dino: "I've Got My Love To Keep Me Warm"

 Wooooo Hoooooo!!! 

Happy Dino-Year 2022!!! Haha!! 

Man o man...what a whirlwind it's been, pals!!! 

I'm not even sure what DAY it is...never mind the year! Hahaha!!! 

Thins' have been so so crazy durin' these last few weeks...my Mondays seem like Fridays & Wednesdays are like Saturdays!!! 

Man! Hopes I'm not writin' Danny G's THURSDAY Serenade with Dino!!! Haha!! Not that that would be a bad thin', either! Matter o' fact...might be a GREAT idea!!! Haha!!! 

Anyway...we made it! 

Dino lead us through the thick & thin of 2021. 

Some good...some not so great. But guess what, mi amici! It's time to start fresh!!! And...my friends...I'm POS I TIVE Dino will help swing us into the BEST year yet! 

Now pals...I'm SURE I've shared my crazy little New Years tradition with all youse cool cool Dino-philes many times...But...it's just one of those VERY special little thins' that I loves sharin' with all my fellow Dino-holics. So....here it is, 'gain. 

Actually this was somethin' my Nanna G. would do with my bro & I on New Years Eve, while Mom & Pop were out dancin' & celebratin'. Soon as the BALL fell...as soon as Midnight struck...she would lead us to the front door... & open it up...lettin' the old year out...& the new year in! Haha!  

We got such a KICK outta this yearly routine as kids, that I STILL do it to this very day with my mini Dino-holics! 

Nanna was such a SWEET & FUN lady! My earliest memories of Dean were actually with her & I wathchin' Martin & Lewis flicks in her parlor. Yes sir pallies...that's where it ALL began! I knew there & then...that I was a tried & true Dino-holic! Ha! 

Ok, pals...let's get the very first Sunday Serenade of 2022 spinnin'! 

What do youse say we kick off the new year...with a little somethin' from the "Winter Romance" al b um? 

I'm thinkin' some "I've Got My Love To Keep Me Warm" is PERFECTO to ease us into a new wintery season...as well as a COOL COOL NEW YEAR! 

Well, mi amici...let's ALL thinks of the message Nanna G. was tryin' to instill in our young minds.  Let your old worries go...leave them in the past...And enjoy life from today goin forward! 

Dean spreads the same vibe to me now & EVERYDAY! Let's make this a GREAT year pallies! Dino's at our side & he's leadin' the way! 

O'...& just wait 'til youse checks out this CRAZY awesome vid I found! Hahaha!!!

OK ol' pals o' mine...turn it up & raise a glass to the good times to come! 

This one's with you in mind, Nanna! 

Salute!!!

Danny G's SPECIAL Dino-Winter Month Sunday Serenade with Dino: "Jingle Bells"

 Welcome back, my bell jinglin'...sleigh ridin', pals! 

Youse ready for the big day?! 

Almost here! 

We is gettin' down to the wire, now, mi amici! 

Definitely one of those bittersweet days for us Dino-lovers. 

Along with all the happiness & chaotic excitement that comes with Christmas...we also mark 'nother year without our main guy...here, among us. Dino-Departure Day. 

But...my friends! We still have his spirit! 

Gotta 'member that! 

Always!

The power of music is real, pals! And Dino's, more than any other...can help us through anythin'! 

So...palsies o mine...let's be merry! 

Celebrate his life, times & teachins'! 

And never give up that glowin', happy Dino-vibe! 

I'm feelin' a little foolish today, actually! Haha!! Gotta be that strong Dino-spirit in the air, this time of year, pals! 

So what else is there left to do 'cept roll with it & get that FUN FUN Dino-air swirlin'! 

How's 'bout some "Jingle Bells"...as ONLY our main dude can do "Jingle Bells"...for this week's Serenade?! 

Yup! Sounds good to me! 

O'...& btw, pallies...since this is the last actual Sunday before the big day...I is gonna try to post next week's Serenade early. Probably try for Friday. 

No way I can let this VERY special day pass without one more VERY special Dino-jam! 

OK, mi amici...enjoy the tune, my friends! And enjoy all the crazy Christmassy-chaos! 

It's TRULY the MOST Dino-ful time of the year! 

Ciao! 

Danny G's SPECIAL Dino-Winter Month Sunday Serenade with Dino: "I'll Be Home For Christmas"

 Welcome back, mi amici! 

How youse feelin'? 

Hopefully not TOO stressed out. 

I know we gots a LOT of thins' to do...gettin' ready for the big day! Dino-Departure day, that is! Haha!! 

Yup...it's a BUSY time of year, palsies. Not easy keepin' your mindset on "chill mode" these next couple weeks. Everyone seems to go into panic mode! Seem to forget what the holidays are all 'bout. 

Well, pals...what we need to do...is to just relax. 

Take a deep breath...& relax. 

Thins' will come together...& we'll all be OK. 

Just do what I do, my friends! Increase your Dino-intake...& maybe a little more vino. Haha!! That's somethin' we DEFINATELY can ALL use! 

Actually...what I seem to have the hardest time with...is holdin' onto my traditions...which I've mentioned here before. 

Sometimes that gets me a wee bit blue, pals. Ain't easy when family that once were the tradition do-ers...are all gone. Now it's up to you...& no one else is diggin' what youse do! Ugh!! 

Yup...not easy convincin' my kiddies that "The Feast of the Seven Fishes" is a yummy Christmas Eve dinner!  That "polpi" & calamad"...(octopus & squid) are delicious! Haha!! 

Nope...they just ain't feelin' the old traditional vibe...that I grew up with...mi amici. 

Really gets me longin' for "the old days", pals. Christmas' long gone by. I'm sure youse can relate, my friends. 

I thinks this week's Serenade will get us back to those days, pallies. Maybe not physically...but will definitely bring our thoughts back to those great great days! 

Dino's "I'll Be Home for Christmas"...is the one tune that gets me both happy & sad...both...at the same time. Melancholy, but comforted. Just thinkin' back & bein' SO SO thankful & appreciative for those memories...gives me the energy & extra "pep in my step"...to keep on keepin' on! 

Actually, pals...Dino jams are the one tradition...that no matter what...or who...is 'round...have ALWAYS been & ALWAYS will be...my one CONSTANT Christmassy tradition. Now, friends o mine...who can ask for ANY more than that? 

Well, pals o' mine...before I take off...had to make sure youse is all aware of the The Dean Martin & Frank Sinatra Christmas special airin' on PBS this week! Channel 2, here in my part of the world. Makes sure to watch for it & also the Dean Martin documentary on TCM. They both are PERFECTO to get thins' jumpin'! 

Enjoy, mi amici!
