I would like to nominate the 25 or more different songs called Going Home. In particular we could have Alvin Lee perform the 13 minute version of the Ten Years After song made famous at Woodstock, see previous thread. Or we could have, in honour of the late musician, much lauded elsewhere, Bert Jansch - Going Home. Or we could have something else. I expect we'll have something else.
I think when we've done this before I came up with 15 "Angels". I'll stick with the "A"s and go with:
The Jam - "All Around The World" - Lisa Stansfield (the latter being a tragic story of a woman who has carelessly lost her child and despite looking literally eveywhere, can't find him/her)
Lionel Richtea - All Night Long - Rainbow - (the latter putting the P and C into PC)
Well I never saw that coming - I remember when poor Whitney died saying how unfair it was that she was credited with inventing disco singing when my mum had started it all along, twinned with Georgio's synth beats, Donna is the truly dance defining artist of all time. I Feel Love is as fresh and relevant today as it was on the day of it's release.

ReplyDeleteJust devastated.
ReplyDeleteDonna Summer was my mother.

Yup DS is on the soundtrack of my life.
