Chappell Roan is blowing up: She is compared most to Kate Bush but she especially reminds me of Maria McKee. Roan is blazing her own trail but boy do I get an 80’s vibe from her music:

This is Jonny Diggens. Many, Many, MANY people are asking him to finish this and release it. He said it is coming soon. If you like a good, smoky saxophone then this is for you:

Thank you for sharing that. It's beautiful and I hope he does finish and release it.

Listening to this brought back some memories. My parents loved Boots Randolph. I was probably around 6 or 7 and they had a RCA Victor stereo record player. It had two stereo speakers and was on a stand. I remember them dancing the jitterbug to it many a weekend when they had some friends over. I'd sit and watch all of them dance. I guess you could call that entertainment in early 60's and they practically wore that album out.

Now this isn't as smokey like Johnny Diggens. It was a little more fast and sassy.

Boots Randolph wrote this song I'm about to share, and to me, he was one of the masters of the Sax.

I recognize that from Benny Hill but I never knew where it came from! After all of these years.... Regarding the other song: There is a trend on TikTok saying what they were doing in the '80's when they heard this song but they then say "but I was born in 1995" or whatever year they were born. I love how they reimagine the 80's even though they weren't alive. That particular melody hits for me because I remember the 80's as full of these wonderful saxophone melodies. I know David Sanborn died recently and he was huge during that period. I loved being a young woman that decade.

So did I. I also remember so many great sax players back then. And I will always love Kenny G. I just realized Kenny G had a birthday in June. He was born June 5th, 1956. He's two years older than me, and the same age as my brother.

I taped this back in 1998, but I didn't feel like trying to find the VHS tape since it was mixed up somewhere with all the VHS tapes I recorded of figure skating. I just didn't feel like trying to find it among the 100 plus VHS tapes I have. It would have been like trying to find a needle in a haystack.

Anyway, I thought about YouTube. Sure enough, I found it on YouTube. This is what I've been watching and listening to tonight.

I’m just listening to my first Chappell Roan song, “good luck babe”, what an amazing beat, I love this. Scrolling through all of the thousands of comments… so this is a song about same-sex attraction or a girlfriend she has or once had?

It’s funny in the comments everybody starts off by saying I’m a 65 year old straight male or I’m a 60 yr straight woman .... I’m like why is everybody identifying their sexuality first in the comments.

There was an article on my home page about the song, Unchained Melody, being one of the most recorded songs in the 20th century. The most popular version of the song was by The Righteous Brothers and Elvis Presley. I had no idea just how many recordings by artists of Unchained Melody there actually were.

"Unchained Melody" | Songwriters Hall of Fame

Songwriter's Hall of Fame

www.songhall.org

“Unchained Melody” is a 1955 song with music by Alex North and lyrics by Hy Zaret. North wrote the music as a theme for the little-known prison film Unchained (January 1955), hence the song title. Todd Duncan sang the vocals for the film soundtrack. It has since become a standard and one of the most recorded songs of the 20th century, most notably by the Righteous Brothers. According to the song’s publishing administrator, over 1,500 recordings of “Unchained Melody” have been made by more than 670 artists, in multiple languages.

In 1955, three versions of the song (by Les Baxter, Al Hibbler, and Roy Hamilton) charted in the Billboard top 10 in the United States, and four versions (by Al Hibbler, Les Baxter, Jimmy Young, and Liberace) appeared in the top 20 in the United Kingdom simultaneously, a record for any song. The song continued to chart in the 21st century, and it was the only song to reach number one with four different recordings in the UK until it was joined by Band Aid 30’s “Do They Know It’s Christmas?” in 2014.

Of the hundreds of recordings made, the Righteous Brothers’ version in July 1965, with a solo by Bobby Hatfield, became the jukebox standard after its release. Hatfield changed the melody in the final verse and many subsequent covers of the song are based on his version. The Righteous Brothers recording achieved a second round of great popularity when featured in the film Ghost in 1990. In 2004, it was number 27 on AFI’s 100 Years…100 Songs survey of top tunes in American cinema.

After reading this article, I went on YouTube to find some of the various artists that had recorded Unchained Melody. I know I really fell in love with Unchained Melody when it was used in the final scene of Ghost.

Listening to Vanessa Williams' Star Bright CD. I was with my stepmom the first time we heard it. It was in 1996, and we went to a floral shop in Logansport called The Blossom Shop. The owner was playing the CD, and the first song we heard was Hark, The Herald Angels Sing. We both fell in love with CD and purchased it that day. Later, closer to Christmas, Vanessa had a TV special where she performed the songs that were on the CD.

Sharing a couple of the songs we fell in love with.

Listening to Vanessa Williams' Star Bright CD.

Oh
My God

Best album of Christmas time ever and ever will be. Her rendition of silver and gold is my favorite of all time and every song on that record is a gem right down to baby it’s cold outside.

She sang at a wedding of my friends on the roof top of the building right across the street from me about eight years ago. Was just looking at the photos

She also has the best I’ll be home for Christmas I have ever heard.


Silver and gold – amazing
