Year: 2003
I’ve seen Wicked twice live and only wish I had seen the original cast. Chenoweth is so amazing.
Tracy Chapman — Fast Car
Year: 1988
Ugh, this song is so freaking sad.
Harry Chapin — W.O.L.D.
Year: 1973
I could go the rest of my life without hearing the overdone “Cat’s In The Cradle,” so I’m glad I found another one I liked.
Kasey Chambers — Pony
Year: 2004
You wanted to hear an Aussie yodel, didn’t you?
Johnny Cash — Hurt
Year: 2003
Carlene Carter’s stepfather did some good stuff, too.
I was already a huge Cash fan before this came out and this just solidified him for me as one of the greatest artists ever.
Carlene Carter — Come On Back
Year: 1990
Did not realize she was dating Tom Petty’s bassist when he died from overdose.
Mary Chapin Carpenter — Only A Dream
Year: 1992
She had the most success on the country charts, but she’s more folk. This song just slays me.
Mariah Carey — Emotions
Year: 1991
A collaboration with C&C Music Factory, famous for showing off her five octave vocal range. My second favorite would be the rather unheralded “Anytime You Need A Friend.”
Candyman — Knockin’ Boots
Year: 1990
This was my favorite song from age nine to twelve. Had no idea what the song meant, and I would sing it all the time in the house. Sorry, Mom.
Tevin Campbell — Round and Round
Year: 1990
Did not know Tevin was just 14 when this was dropped, or that it was in Graffiti Bridge and produced by Prince.
