Top Five On Friday
This week's top five is all about the dearly departed.
Top five songs and or albums from artists that are no longer with us.
Just for fun, I thought I'd do both.
Songs
1. This Song - George Harrison
Written about his problems with the Bright Music lawsuit, George's delightful sense of humor really shines though in these lyrics.
2. Color My World - Chicago
Although the band has perservered, this song was sung by their original guitarist, the late Terry Kath.
3. Nobody Told Me There'd Be Days Like These - John Lennon
This song is almost a theme song for me on many a day!
4. Addicted To Love - Robert Palmer
I just loved him. It's such a shame that he died so young.
5. Hound Dog - Elvis Presley
Because I just had to include one song by "The King."
Albums
The entire list belongs to these two men...
1. 33 1/3 - George Harrison
Simply delightful and oh so humorous.
2. Double Fantasy - John Lennon
So sad that he was murdered shortly after this album's release
3. Cloud Nine - George Harrison
A great album with so many of George's friends helping out.
4. Gone Troppo - George Harrison
How could anyone NOT like an album with that title?!
5. All Things Must Pass - George Harrison
This double disc set is full of treasures...
I'll be off to cry in a corner now. So many wonderful artists no longer making sweet music for us. There are so many that I probably could have done a Top Ten or Twenty.
That's just so sad...
