Year: 1992
Two 1992 country songs in one day from two artists who never had a #1 hit.
Their most famous song is probably “Trashy Women.”
Mark Collie — Even The Man In The Moon Is Crying
Year: 1992
This was his largest hit at #5 and the only song of his that I really like.
Joe Cocker — With A Little Help From My Friends
Year: 1969
First heard this as the intro to The Wonder Years and I still associate it.
The Clash — Rock The Casbah
Year: 1982
One of those songs I’ve been listening to for years without ever reading their lyrics. Had no idea it was a protest of Iran banning western music.
Eric Clapton — Heaven Is One Step Away
Year: 1985
The Chi-Lites — Have You Seen Her
Year: 1971
The background dancing here is amazing.
First heard this by Hammer. His is good, but this version has more soul.
The Chicks — Long Time Gone
Year: 2002
Not the only Darrell Scott that will be played this year.
I really didn’t like The Chicks when they first came out so I didn’t give them much of a chance for a while. Turns out I just felt their three weakest singles were their first three. And then when they consciously torpedoed their chart success to protest a war monger I liked them even more. And then when they shed “Dixie” from their name I liked them even more.
“Why do you have to be a patriot? About what? This land is our land? Why?”
Chicago — 25 or 6 to 4
Year: 1970
I love how so many songs from the 60s and 70s feel like they have some grand, inspirational meaning behind them. And then you find out they were just writing the song at 3:35 or 3:36.
Mark Chesnutt — I Just Wanted You To Know
Year: 1993
There I go again with crescendoing choruses.
Kenny Chesney — What I Need To Do
Year: 2000
While his tractor is pretty sexy, here’s one of Kenny’s least popular singles. Nothing special about it, but I love the melody.
