This song always reminds me of my parents marriage which was far from happy. Yet somehow despite all the fights breakups and tears they somehow stayed together until the end of their lives.
Day 228: In the end nobody wins, Elton John Read More »
Time to lighten the mood a little. Another classic 80s dance song. Enjoy those synthesizers.
Day 221: I just can’t get enough, Depeche Mode Read More »
Another one of John’s song from his Double Fantasy album which came out only shortly before he was assassinated in New York. I also wonder what this genius would have produced if he had lived another 30 or so years. Sadly we shall never know.
Day 176: Beautiful Boy (Darling Boy), John Lennon Read More »
“For your eyes only Mr Bond.” Sean Connery certainly made James Bond into a more comical character but I much prefer the modern protrayal of the spy by Daniel Craig. By far the best James Bond of the lot in my opinion.
Day 150: For your eyes only, Sheena Easton, (James Bond Theme) Read More »
One of Fleetwood Mac’s front woman also has a very successful solo career. This is perhaps one of her best known songs although I always assumed it would be called White Wing Dove.
Day 147: Edge of Seventeen, Stevie Nicks Read More »
I always think Kim Carnes is the female version of Rod Stewart (in terms of voice of course). Ahh just realised I haven’t posted a song from Rod Stewart yet!
Day 132: Bette Davis Eyes, Kim Carnes Read More »
Another great concert I was able to see back in the 80s. I remember Phil Collins opening his concert with synchro drumming (Phil Collins is a very accomplished drummer so he was on stage with another drummer). They then went into this song.
Day 129: In the air tonight, Phil Collins Read More »
A song that captures a common scenario for many teenage and twenty something blokes.
Day 123: Jessie’s Girl, Rick Springfield Read More »
I remember seeing Dudley Moore in this film. The song is better than the movie but sadly this video is clip is pretty knackered.
Day 117: Arthur’s theme, Christopher Cross Read More »
This song was not one I intended to include until today when I heard about the sad death of Dave Greenfield who died late yesterday aged 71 after testing positive for Covid-19. He had been in hospital for a prolonged period with heart problems. RIP
