I’m a big fan of “Am I Going Insane?” Ozzy’s vocals are spot on and practically molded into the song.
“Yes Sir, No Sir” is a classic anti-war song by The Kinks, released on the Arthur (Or the Decline and Fall of the British Empire) album in 1969.
For the final selection of 2025, I’m going with a song that was released just a year earlier. “Feel”, by The Heavy Heavy, has put that band square on my concert radar.
There’s a lot of reasons why Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer is a classic Christmas TV special: fun story, fun characters, excellent animation… but the sound track by Johnny Marks left us with many memorable holiday tunes.
“Let it never be said
The romance is dead”
Ruby, by the Kaiser Chiefs, was a big hit in 2007. Catchy as all get out.
I just looked at some of Cheap Trick’s most recent concerts’ set lists – and they are still not playing Downed.
“Commissioning a Symphony in C” is great in its own right, and the lyrics are interesting, and not your normal rock song story.
Song 360, “Sad Song” is a little known song by The Cars, done past their highest moments as a band in the late 1970s and early 1980s.
I’m a big fan of the live version. I think the guitars get a bit buried in a lot of the studio versions of Thin Lizzy’s music that really gets spotlighted in the live versions. I do prefer their live work.
First of all, this is the studio version of Fat Man in the Bathtub by Little Feat. I have not run into a live version I didn’t love, but it all comes back to the studio version as the introduction for reference of enhancements in live performance.
