Don't it Make My Brown Eyes Blue - Crystal Gayle

I don't know many singers with hair this long. And the song itself is great. Need I say more about the great Crystal Gayle? Enjoy!

The Rose: Still an amazing song

The moment I heard Bette Midler's hit song The Rose, I loved it. I cannot read the words without applying them to my own life. They are powerful words that stand reach down to the depths of my soul. It's a song that stands the test of time. I have loved other versions of this song as well, including, but not limited to, Conway Twitty's version. Still great after all these years, and quite possibly in my top ten all time. Enjoy!




Here's the Conway Twitty version.




And then this wonderful performance, a duet with Bette Midler and Wynona Judd.

Have you seen her? Betcha by golly wow!

I like sad songs from time to time. That doesn't mean I'm sad every time I listen to them. Far from it. There are times though. I remember times in the past when I've been sad. And songs of lost love are usually the saddest. Now, this singing group, the Chi-lites....they are great. They also have some nice Afros. I had an Afro once, believe it or not. It kind of reminds me of the old NBA announcer who once asked, "How tall is that guy?" and his side-kick said, "Six foot eight...seven two if you count his hair."

Another great song is the Stylistic's "Betcha By Golly Wow" This is just a great song that isn't a sad song. Some of these old Mo-town groups are fabulous! Sit back and enjoy a couple of classics!

Great songs are part of my life

Music is very much a part of my life. I use it to express my feelings, to lift my mood, to pump me up. While there are some great songs out there, I put In My Life  by the Beatles very high on my own personal list. Enjoy!
