He's My Brother
This song gives me chills still .
One of the most touching lines in this song... 'He ain't heavy, he's my brother'.
The Hollies is probably the most under rated Rock & Roll group in history.

Windin' your way down on Baker Street
I was a 9 years old kid in my provincial home town , listening to an old radio transistor with my cousin.
heard this song on a meeting with friend in a coffee shop - when my friend Gideon asked me the name of the artist ....
Well , I didn't exactly know it , then he discovered me -- it was Gary Rafferty...
Love the chorus lines :
You used to think that it was so easy
You used to say that it was so easy
But you're tryin'
You're tryin' now
Another year and then you'll be happy
Just one more year and then you'll be happy
But you're cryin'
You're cryin' now

Fandango - A whiter shade of pale
Gary Brooker recalled the writing of the music : "I'd been listening to a lot of Classical music, and Jazz.
'A Whiter Shade Of Pale' seemed to be about two people, a relationship even. It's a memory. There was a leaving, and a sadness about it. To get the soul of those lyrics across vocally, to make people feel that, was quite an accomplishment.
When it came to me , I thought, 'Here's something.' I happened to be at the piano when I read them, already playing a musical idea. It fitted the lyrics within a couple of hours. Things can be gifted. If you trace the chordal element, it does a bar or two of Bach's 'Air On A G String' before it veers off.
That spark was all it took. I wasn't consciously combining Rock with Classical, it's just that Bach's music was in me."
Dedicated to my dear brother Nir Halfon and his family...

Don't Stop The Rock - Cadbury
This song was written produced by pretty tony as were trinere and debbie debb.
He was the man back in those days.
I think Freestyle was a band he invented just to get his music out there.
Freestyle music was very much a producers medium like disco back in the day and how hip hop is now.
This add is for the chocolate of Cadbury ...

Turn turn turn ...
The Byrds were popular and influential through the latter part of the 1960s and early 1970s.
I never get tired of hearing this song either and I think Forrest Gump was the most endearing character in a movie ever.
He truly knew what LOVE was!
Forrest Gump is the greatest movie i ever seen, and the exact choice of song for the movie..

Rod Stewart - Jorge Ben Jor wannabe ??

Jorge Ben Jor should thank Rod Stewart for making his little melody thing internationally recognized as one of the BEST melodies in disco history!!!
Watch Rod's 'Da ya think I'm sexy ' :

Nowadays people judge on appearance and labels .
Too bad the progression of good black music is now nonsense rap....
