William's Song a Day Blog - est. September 2007

From: Take Another Picture ; Year: 1983; Genre: Rock Revising another band I have not picked a song from in a while. This is another one of their hits; the music, especially the saxophone really makes this one shine. Hear Take Me To Heart on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Carly Simon - You’re so Vain My song pick two years ago today: Clifford Nyren - Keep Running Away My song pick three years ago today: Mastodon - Blood and Thunder My song pick four years ago today: Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart - K.331 - Piano Sonata No. 11 My song pick five years ago today: The Allman Brothers Band - Little Martha My song pick six years ago today: Steve Vai - #?@! Yourself My song pick seven years ago today: The Who - I'm Free My song pick eight years ago today: The Yardbirds - Heart Full of Soul

From: Jim & Ingrid Croce ; Year: 1969; Genre: Folk I cannot begin to count the times I've heard the song over my lifetime, mostly as a child; my parents, especially my mom loved this album and song. Anyway, this is, I believe, the only studio album to feature the husband and wife duo of Jim and Ingrid Croce performing together; it was also his second studio album. While all of his major hits came later there is a certain uplifting feeling from this record that is not as noticeable on his later albums. Whilst I absolutely love his heavier songs, I love this material too, but in a different way. This song is very much a folk song in the late 60s tradition with just enough great accompaniment, (the bass line is quite fun), and more of a normal"every day" subject matter and feeling that to some degree all can relate to. Hear What Do People Do on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Rage Against the Machine - Take the Power Back My song pick two years ...

From: Blood Sugar Sex Magik ; Year: 1991; Genre: Funk Rock/Alternative Rock As luck would have it yesterday I had this popular funk rock song got stuck in my mind even though I hadn't heard it in for a short while. Anyway, I thought it would be a great addition for my continuing of picking Funky Fridays consecutively. This is without a doubt one of their more famous hits and that funky groove is a big reason for it. Hear Give It Away on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Barenaked Ladies - If I Had $1000000 My song pick two years ago today: Rush - The Anarchist My song pick three years ago today: Audioslave - Cochise My song pick four years ago today: Benedictine Monks of Santo Domingo de Silos - Media Vita in Morte Sumus My song pick five years ago today: Stahlhammer - Der Zerbrochene Traum My song pick six years ago today: Charles Gounod - Funeral March of a Marionette My song pick seven years ago today: Lynyrd Skynyrd - Free Bird My song pick ei...

From: Seasons End ; Year: 1989; Genre: Hard Rock/Progressive Rock I had an incline to pick a song from Marillion this morning, and something from the first album to feature singer Steve Hogarth. This one's got more of a straight-up rock sound than their earlier music, but is very much like what the prog rockers were doing in the late 80s. The instrumentation is excellent however and more than enough to catch the ear of the fan that fancy their more progressive roots. Hear Hooks in You on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Jamiroquai - Virtual Insanity My song pick two years ago today: Queensrÿche - Breaking the Silence My song pick three years ago today: Aerosmith - Jaded My song pick four years ago today: Blind Faith - Had to Cry Today My song pick five years ago today: Jethro Tull - By Kind Permission Of My song pick six years ago today: Peter Gabriel - Down To Earth My song pick seven years ago today: Edgar Winter Group - Free Ride My song pick ...

From: Bringing It All Back Home ; Year: 1965; Genre: Folk Rock/Blues Rock The last few weeks I've had music from mid 60s Bob Dylan come on my playlist as well, so I thought I'd finally get a clue a pick a song from that era. I decided on this song with its signature rapid-fire lyrical delivery with the folksy-blues music. Hear Subterranean Homesick Blues on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Ian Anderson - Doggerland My song pick two years ago today: Carmen - Bulerias My song pick three years ago today: Porcupine Tree - Last Chance To Evacuate Planet Earth Before It Is Recycled My song pick four years ago today: Miles Davis - Pharaoh's Dance My song pick five years ago today: Led Zeppelin - Ten Years Gone My song pick six years ago today: John Lennon - How Do You Sleep? My song pick seven years ago today: The Who - Getting in Tune My song pick eight years ago today: Jethro Tull - Beastie

From: Jazz ; Year: 1978; Hard Rock Last night this one came on whilst I was out of town, on my way home. The quirky lyrics, the way the song was arranged, and the music itself come together perfectly to make such a great track. Hear Fat Bottomed Girls on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Styx - Do Things My Way My song pick two years ago today: Steeleye Span - The Black Freighter My song pick three years ago today: Red Hot Chili Peppers - Californication My song pick four years ago today: Queensrÿche - Eyes of a Stranger My song pick five years ago today: Bad Company - Holy Water My song pick six years ago today: Azteca - Some Day We'll Get By My song pick seven years ago today: Elmer Bernstein - The Magnificent Seven ( Theme ) My song pick eight years ago today: Rush - Jacob's Ladder

From: No Rest for the Wicked ; Year: 1988; Genre: Heavy Metal I had this classic piece of metal pop into my mind this morning, and as I always do, took it as a sign that I should pick it. Ozzy and his band were at one of their peaks at this point; this song and entire album are classic. Hear Crazy Babies on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Live - Lightning Crashes My song pick two years ago today: Duran Duran - The Reflex My song pick three years ago today: Savatage - The Storm My song pick four years ago today: John Dowland - In Darkness We Dwell My song pick five years ago today: Blue Öyster Cult - I Love the Night My song pick six years ago today: The Byrds - Eight Miles High My song pick seven years ago today: Wings - Band on the Run My song pick eight years ago today: Faith No More - Woodpecker From Mars

From: Ridin' The Storm Out ; Year: 1973; Genre: Rock/Hard Rock With all the recent news about the epic storm on the east coast I had this track come to mind today. I'm actually kind of surprised that I haven't picked this song yet, but it must've been one of those obvious picks that has slipped my mind many of times. Hear Ridin' The Storm Out on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: The Rolling Stones - Brown Sugar My song pick two years ago today: The O'Jays - Give the People What They Want My song pick three years ago today: Rammstein - Alter Mann My song pick four years ago today: Dire Straits - Sultans of Swing My song pick five years ago today: Rammstein - Der Meister My song pick six years ago today: Jethro Tull - Nothing to Say My song pick seven years ago today: Bad Company - Seagull My song pick eight years ago today: Diana Ross - Do You Know Where You're Going To? (The theme from 'Mahogany' )

Year: 1867 (Approximately); Genre: Romantic Period/classical Got in the mood for some "big" music from the Romance Period, or as I call it sometime "from whence heavy metal started." Beautiful, powerful, and filled to the brim with the extremest of emotions; this music is something to behold. And none better from this period than Modest Mussorgsky in my opinion. Hear Intermezzo Symphonique in Modo Classico on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: The Soul Seven - The Cissy's Thang My song pick two years ago today: Soundgarden - Fell on Dark Days My song pick three years ago today: Rush - Driven My song pick four years ago today: The Moody Blues - Go Now My song pick five years ago today: Queen - 39 My song pick six years ago today: Hawkwind - Standing at the Edge My song pick seven years ago today: Rush - Nocturne My song pick eight years ago today: Head East - Never Been Any Reason

From: Cookbook ; Year: 1998; Genre: Funk/Jazz Fusion/Rock Funky Friday it be again, so I shall oblige and pick one. Picking something from the Wooten/Bailey project Bass Extremes felt absolutely perfect for today. I love the funky rock feel of this track as well as the off-the-wall lyrics that depending on what the listener is thinking could be a wee bit raunchy, but your mind has to be in the gutter for that to happen. :P Hear Bassically Yours on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Bonnie Tyler - It's a Jungle Out There My song pick two years ago today: The Cult - Fire Woman My song pick three years ago today: The Beatles - Free as a Bird My song pick four years ago today: Electric Light Orchestra (ELO) - Julie Don't Live Here My song pick five years ago today: Fire Bomber (Humming Bird) - My Soul For You My song pick six years ago today: Hawkwind - D-Rider My song pick seven years ago today: Duran Duran - Rio My song pick eight years ago today: ...

From: French Kiss ; Year: 1976; Genre: Rock The hard back-beat and the funky bass line are two of the biggest draws in this one for me in this lesser hit from Mr. Welch's debut solo album. It's unquestionably in his typical style that's always a treat to the ears. Hear Hot Love, Cold World on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Ozzy Osbourne - No More Tears My song pick two years ago today: UFO - Too Hot To Handle My song pick three years ago today: Stratovarius - Chasing Shadows My song pick four years ago today: The Beatles - Back in the U.S.S.R. My song pick five years ago today: Tarot - Pilot of All Dreams My song pick six years ago today: Muse - Knights of Cydonia My song pick seven years ago today: Nightwish - 10th Man Down My song pick eight years ago today: Jaco Pastorius - Donna Lee

From: Year of the Cat ; Year: 1976; Genre: Soft Rock Probably this, the most famous hit from Al Stewart, is best known for its vivid lyrics filled with both describing a romantic rendezvous in an exotic "far off" locale and and others that are more symbolic and vague. For me though the music is the main draw, which is quite exquisite and technical with an extended solo section done on three instruments. All this is done perfectly in a way as to not scare away the more pop oriented fans from enjoying the piece. Hear Year of the Cat on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Midnight Oil - Dreamworld My song pick two years ago today: Primus - John the Fisherman My song pick three years ago today: Pearl Jam - Go My song pick four years ago today: The Ventures - Beethoven's Sonata in C#-Minor My song pick five years ago today: Stuart Hamm - Count Zero My song pick six years ago today: Louis Armstrong - La Vie en Rose My song pick seven years ago to...

From: The Allnighter ; Year: 1984; Genre: Rock/Blues Rock I learned yesterday of Eagles' guitarists Glenn Frey's passing ; as I've been doing too much lately I thought I should pick one of his songs. This is one of his bigger hits from his solo work away from The Eagles and was used as not only part of the Miami Vice soundtrack, but also inspired an episode based on it with the same title. Also Mr. Frey made an appearance in that episode apparently. Hear Smuggler's Blues on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Weather Report - Predator My song pick two years ago today: Joni Mitchell - Hejira My song pick three years ago today: Dream Theater - Under a Glass Moon My song pick four years ago today: Pearl Jam - Light Years My song pick five years ago today: Band of Horses - Factory My song pick six years ago today: Rush - Freewill My song pick seven years ago today: R.E.M. - Stand My song pick eight years ago today: Queen - Killer Queen

From: Some Days Are Diamonds ; Year: 1981; Genre: Folk Rock/Country For some reason this time of year I always have John Denver's music on my mind; probably the existential nature of his music during this cold and stark season that is mid winter. Hear Some Days Are Diamonds (Some Days Are Stone) on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: The Steve Miller Band - Dance, Dance, Dance My song pick two years ago today: Porcupine Tree - Bonnie the Cat My song pick three years ago today: Ugly Kid Joe - Everything About You My song pick four years ago today: Ludwig Van Beethoven - Op. 31 No. 2 - Piano Sonata No. 17 in D minor " Tempest " My song pick five years ago today: David Bowie - Diamond Dogs My song pick six years ago today: Sky - Toccata My song pick seven years ago today: Journey - Who's Crying Now My song pick eight years ago today: Billy Joel - Only the Good Die Young

From: Hunting High and Low ; Year: 1985; Genre: New Wave/Synthpop/Rock There's been more '80s music on my mind lately, and for me personally one of the many bands that exemplifies this period of music is A-ha. Despite being mostly pop, their gigantic sound and sheer musicianship/abilities makes their music much, much more than a zeitgeist of the 1980s. Hear The Sun Always Shines on T.V. on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Cream - Crossroads My song pick two years ago today: Luther Davis Group - You Can Be a Star My song pick three years ago today: Megadeth - Hangar 18 My song pick four years ago today: Black 47 - Different Drummer My song pick five years ago today: Band of Horses - The First Song My song pick six years ago today: Forest - A Glade Somewhere My song pick seven years ago today: Weather Report - Teen Town My song pick eight years ago today: Johann Sebastian Bach - BWV 1068 - Orchestral Suite No.3 in D-Major, " Air "

From: Blue Sky Mining ; Year: 1990; Genre: Rock Ever since listening to a bunch of their music last night I've had Midnight Oil on the 'ol noggin, as anyone who has followed this blog for any time would probably know I'm a huge fan of the band. Anyway, as with most of their music this one has some excellent music combined with a dire and deep message. Hear Forgotten Years on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: The Nashville Allstars - Opus de Funk My song pick two years ago today: Rush - Freeze (Part IV of 'Fear') My song pick three years ago today: Chris Isaak - Wicked Game My song pick four years ago today: Dion - Abraham, Martin and John My song pick five years ago today: Joachim Witt - Wem Gehört Das Sternenlicht My song pick six years ago today: Cab Calloway & The Harlemaniacs - The Reefer Man My song pick seven years ago today: Diana Ross and the Supremes - Reflections My song pick eight years ago today: Quarterflash - Harde...

From: Trombipulation ; Year: 1980; Genre: Funk The Friday of the Funkiness doth approacheth me in this, the time of posting my blog of music; I must take heed and listen to the words and syncopated bump rhythm of Sir George Clinton and his champions, including Bootsy the Great in their merry band Parliament. Anyway, this is a fun one that'll for sure put a smile on your face and a bounce in your step. Most who are not into funk might also be remembered as the base for Digital Underground's Humpty Dance , from which they sampled the main groove. Hear Let's Play House on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Rare Earth - Warm Ride My song pick two years ago today: Pallas - Warriors My song pick three years ago today: Soundgarden - Flower My song pick four years ago today: Northern Kings - Wanted Dead or Alive My song pick five years ago today: Jethro Tull - Bungle in the Jungle My song pick six years ago today: Edvard Grieg - Op. 54, No.3 - The ...

From: Eat a Peach ; Year: 1972; Genre: Southern Rock When sitting down to make my pick this morning I had Allman Brothers on my mind, so you know wot that means.... Yeah, this is one of their jam songs that ends up being more of a blues rock concept of sort in the end between the cast of legendary musicians that comprised the band and how they interpreted the song. While not an original song, it might as well be; this is more or less the definitive version that everyone remembers. Hear One Way Out on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Dream Theater - The Ministry of Lost Souls My song pick two years ago today: Bachman-Turner Overdrive (BTO) - Give it Time My song pick three years ago today: Jethro Tull - The Waking Edge My song pick four years ago today: The Scorpions - The Good Die Young My song pick five years ago today: Megadeth - Elysian Fields My song pick six years ago today: Django Reinhardt & Stephane Grappelli (Quintette du Hot Club de Fra...

From: Outsideinside ; Year: 1968; Genre: Hard Rock/Metal Wracking my brain for a perfect pick today; for some reason early metal music seemed to fit my mood the best and Blue Cheer came to mind. This one's definitely a showy piece for the drums with its hard-hitting beat and odd rhythms. Hear Just a Little Bit on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Soundgarden - Outshined My song pick two years ago today: The Kinks - All Day and All of the Night My song pick three years ago today: Iron Maiden - Caught Somewhere in Time My song pick four years ago today: Jamiroquai - Cosmic Girl My song pick five years ago today: Ozzy Osbourne - Mama, I'm Coming Home My song pick six years ago today: Adam Gilberti - Dragon's First Flight My song pick seven years ago today: Zakk Wylde - Farm Fiddlin' My song pick eight years ago today: Jethro Tull - Hunting Girl

From: Songs From The Big Chair ; Year: 1985; Genre: New Wave/Rock I'm getting back in the mood for some '80s music again; Tears for Fears is another one from that period of rock/pop that I like. I was a bit surprised that I hadn't picked this song yet, being that it's essentially the signature song of the band, but it does get its fair share of overplay. More or less being a child of the 1980s, the synth sound doesn't turn me off too much, especially with how this band normally blended it with "normal" rock sounds. Hear Shout on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Badfinger - Baby Blue My song pick two years ago today: Smashing Pumpkins - Bullet with Butterfly Wings My song pick three years ago today: Dire Straits - Brothers in Arms My song pick four years ago today: Metallica - The Day That Never Comes My song pick five years ago today: Rammstein, featuring Carmen Zapata - Te Quiero Puta! My song pick six years ago today: Trav...

From: The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars ; Year: 1972; Genre: Glam Rock As you probably heard, the legendary singer/songwriter/performer David Bowie passed away yesterday; I was shocked when I saw the news alert. I seem to be making posts like this a lot lately, or so it would seem, I hope this die-off of great musical talent halts soon. Anyway, as you probably know by the songs I've already picked I have always been a fan of the man's work and I couldn't think of a better song to pick today; it's one of my favourites. Hear Starman on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: King Crimson - Starless My song pick two years ago today: Black 47 - Maria's Wedding My song pick three years ago today: Van Halen - 1984 My song pick four years ago today: Savatage - Holocaust My song pick five years ago today: The United States of America - The Garden of Earthly Delights My song pick six years ago today: Buddy Holley & the ...

From: Once Upon a Time ; Year:1985; Genre: Rock/New Wave Feeling like some '80s new wave/pop rock today; I knew that the band Simple Minds would be a good place to start and this hit single from the the mid '80s fit my mood quite well. Hear Alive and Kicking on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Jethro Tull - Love Story My song pick two years ago today: Primus - My Name is Mud My song pick three years ago today: Styx - Mr. Roboto My song pick four years ago today: Carmen - High Time My song pick five years ago today: Stahlhammer - Strom Der Zeit My song pick six years ago today: Ally Kerr - The Sore Feet Song My song pick seven years ago today: Johnny Cash - Solitary Man My song pick eight years ago today: Two-Mix - White Reflection

From: Superunknown ; Year: 1994; Genre: Hard Rock/Alternative Metal After hearing a whole slew of music from that time it got in the mood for some 1990s alternative metal; of course Soundgarden is and always will be my favourite band from that scene, so I'm picking one of theirs. Hear Like Suicide on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: D Train - You're the One for Me My song pick two years ago today: Deep Purple - Child in Time My song pick three years ago today: Peter Gabriel - Shock the Monkey My song pick four years ago today: Stormwarrior - Foreign Shores My song pick five years ago today: Larry Greene - Through the Fire My song pick six years ago today: Puhdys - Geh Dem Wind Nicht Aus Dem Wege My song pick seven years ago today: Journey - Lights My song pick eight years ago today: Rush - Anthem

From: Zapp ; Year: 1980; Genre: Funk/R&B It's a very busy Friday, so I'm making a more abbreviated selection today, but it's still a Funky Friday and I do not want to end my streak, which stands currently at 122 in a row. This one has a lot of electronic sounds, especially with all of the fun effects on the vocals. Hear More Bounce to the Ounce on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Ugly Kid Joe - Milkman's Son My song pick two years ago today: Megadeth - Bite the Hand My song pick three years ago today: Jefferson Starship - Find Your Way Back My song pick four years ago today: Band of Horses - Compliments My song pick five years ago today: Hawkwind - Lord of Light My song pick six years ago today: Karussell - Schattenkreuze My song pick seven years ago today: The Proclaimers - I 'm Gonna Be (500 Miles) My song pick eight years ago today: Arlo Guthrie - City of New Orleans

From: Dancing on a Cold Wind ; Year: 1974; Genre: Progressive Rock/Flamenco Rock Whilst out last night, a song from Carmen came on my playlist and since it's still with me now in my mind I thought I would go ahead and pick it. Viva mi Sevilla definitely fits the idea of mixing hard rock with Flamenco, and they do it so well. That big, fat sounding bass really drives the song right along; and the music is something to hear. Hear Viva mi Sevilla on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Benny Goodman - Sing, Sing, Sing (With a Swing) My song pick two years ago today: The Allman Brothers Band - Dreams My song pick three years ago today: Queen - Crazy Little Thing Called Love My song pick four years ago today: Stevie Ray Vaughan and Double Trouble - Superstition My song pick five years ago today: Journey - To Play Some Music My song pick six years ago today: Apocalyptica featuring Till Lindemann - Helden My song pick seven years ago today: James Gang - Fun...

From: Original Soundtrack from the Film Sacco and Vanzetti ; Year: 1971; Genre: Folk/Soundtrack I've had this classic track from the master composer Ennio Morricone on my mind for the last few days; I thought I would go ahead and pick it. Kind of a simple melody for such an epic track and dare I say; "anthem," but it does exactly as needed and then some. Hear Here's To You on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Stevie Ray Vaughan - The Sky is Crying My song pick two years ago today: Maddy Prior - Gutter Geese My song pick three years ago today: Pink Floyd - Hey You My song pick four years ago today: Return to Forever - Dayride My song pick five years ago today: Blue Öyster Cult - Hot Rails to Hell My song pick six years ago today: Dr. Hook & The Medicine Show - Cover of the Rolling Stone My song pick seven years ago today: Seals & Crofts - Summer Breeze My song pick eight years ago today: Jethro Tull - Crazed Institution

From: Carter, Gillespie, Inc. ; Year: 1976; Genre: Jazz Had some jazz on the ol' brain this morning, so I indulged myself with a selection from Dizzy Gillespie. Broadway from his album with the incomparable Benny Carter was one that caught my mood to perfection. Benny Carter, Dizzy Gillespie, and Joe Pass' soloing are all incredible throughout. Hear Broadway on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Muse - Invincible My song pick two years ago today: America - Ventura Highway My song pick three years ago today: Nick Gilder - Hot Child in the City My song pick four years ago today: Boston - Foreplay/Long Time My song pick five years ago today: Gerry Rafferty - Home and Dry My song pick six years ago today: Johnny Cash - One Piece at a Time My song pick seven years ago today: Traffic - John Barleycorn My song pick eight years ago today: The Moody Blues - Forever Afternoon ( Tuesday? ), Time to Get Away.

From: Wild-Eyed Southern Boys ; Year: 1981; Genre: Southern Rock Was thinking about .38 Special's music a bit lately and thought I'd get another one in. Shockingly, this one, their most popular song, I have not picked yet. I've always been amazed at the massive crossover appeal of this track, you can almost play it anywhere to any audience and it'll be liked. Probably one of the main reasons is the music, which is both good and catchy. Hear Hold On Loosely on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Deep Purple - Anthem My song pick two years ago today: Billy Joel - You May Be Right My song pick three years ago today: Jethro Tull - Songs From the Wood My song pick four years ago today: Jethro Tull - Crew Nights My song pick five years ago today: The Guess Who - These Eyes My song pick six years ago today: Emerson, Lake & Palmer - Fanfare for the Common Man My song pick seven years ago today: The Kinks - Do It Again My song pick eight yea...

From: Rock IV Original Motion Picture Soundtrack ; Year: 1985; Genre: Hard Rock I've been meaning to choose this classic '80s hit for some time now, and since I happened to notice that I had only picked one from the band and that was a few years ago, so this seemed like a good time to pick it. Most would remember Burning Heart as from the film Rocky IV and more or less its theme, but it has become something of an anthem of sorts, outgrowing its origins. Hear Burning Heart on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Peter, Paul and Mary - This Train My song pick two years ago today: Bootsy's Rubber Band - Bootzilla My song pick three years ago today: Electric Light Orchestra (ELO) - Do Ya My song pick four years ago today: Mr. Big - Take Cover My song pick five years ago today: Triumph - Magic Power My song pick six years ago today: Nightwish - While Your Lips Are Still Red My song pick seven years ago today: The Rolling Stones - Mother's Littl...

From: Breakfast in America ; Year: 1979, Genre: Rock This is one of my favourites from the band and am kind of surprised that I hadn't added it yet, so here it is. I absolutely love that electric piano and the bass guitar in this one. Hear Goodbye Stranger on YouTube.

From: Get Up Offa That Thing ; Year: 1976; Genre: Funk/Soul Happy New Year! It's also a Funky Friday , so I was thinking that nothing would be better than something from James Brown for the celebratory occasion; definite boogie inducing track in the extreme. Hear Get Up Offa That Thing/Release the Pressure on YouTube. My song pick one year ago today: Primus with the Fungi Ensemble - Pure Imagination My song pick two years ago today: The Moody Blues - The Day Begins/Morning Glory My song pick three years ago today: Rush - Here Again My song pick four years ago today: Jethro Tull - Last Man at the Party My song pick five years ago today: Dan Fogelberg - Same Old Lang Syne My song pick six years ago today: ABBA - Happy New Year My song pick seven years ago today: U2 - New Year's Day My song pick eight years ago today: Kiss - Shout It Out Loud
