Five on Friday Set 171
Posted: Friday, April 26, 2013 by Travis Cody inThere is absolutely nothing wrong with being stuck in the 1960s. The music is excellent. If I want to post a third straight week of 60s tunes for FoF, then I can.
I could, but I'm not gonna.
Instead I thought I would do a sort of progression. I heard a great tune this week that didn't originate in the 1960s and I wanted to share it. So I thought I'd start with that tune and then jump at 10 year intervals for the rest of my Set.
The songs are a little sappy, but I won't apologize for that. Sappy works for me this week.
Have a great weekend gang!
Secretly, written by Al Hoffman/Dick Manning/Hugo Peretti/Luigi Creatore, released in 1958 by Jimmie Rodgers
Honey, written by Bobby Russell, released by Bobby Goldsboro in 1968
You're in My Heart, written by Rod Stewart, released by Rod Stewart in 1978
I Don't Want to Live Without You, written by Mick Jones, released by Foreigner in 1988
I'll Be, written by Edwin McCain, released by Edwin McCain in 1998 - I've used this one before; quite recently, in fact. But I like the song so it runs again.
Sappy is always okay when you are in the mood. I simply time traveled to 1971 for a really good year.
