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

From: Nightcap ; Year: 1993 (1989); Genre: Hard Rock/Progressive Rock This is among my favourites from the Nightcap album; I really like the sound of late '80s 'Tull and this one's definitely a gem to be heard from that era. I really like Martin Barre's guitar playing throughout this one; it's the main draw and makes the song what it is. Hear Hard Liner on YouTube.

From: Storm Front ; Year: 1989; Genre: Rock Here's another one I cannot believe I have not chosen yet; it's among my favourites from Billy Joel. I can still remember clearly when this one came out; doesn't seem that long ago but I guess it is. Almost as much time has passed since it was released than was covered in the song itself. It'd be interesting to see a continuation of the song in some way to cover the major events since 1989. Hear We Didn't Start the Fire on YouTube.

From: Marcus Miller ; Year: 1984; Genre: Jazz Fusion This one has a sound that makes it sound very much of the era it was released, mostly because of all of the heavy electronic sounds.

From: XXV ; Year: 2011; Genre: Progressive Rock Ever since yesterday evening I've had Pallas' music on my mind off and on.

From: Aurora Borealis ; Year: 1972; Genre: Rock This one seems like a good fit for today, no other reason for picking it. The only detractor in my personal opinion is the falsetto vocals, but even with it, it's a good track. Hear Keeping My Head Above Water on YouTube.

From: Funkadelic ; Year: 1970; Genre: Funk/Soul I've been listening to a lot of Funkadelic music lately, so why not go with them for two Funky Fridays in a row?

From: Are You Experienced ; Year: 1967; Genre: Hard Rock/Psychedelic Rock I "spun the wheel" today and ended up choosing another Jimi Hendrix tune; another song I was surprised I had not chosen yet.

From: The Temptations with a Lot o' Soul ; Year: 1967; Genre: Motown/Soul The Temptations have been on my mind a lot of the day thus far; thought I'd go ahead and pick another one of their songs.

From: Lament ; Year: 1984; Genre: New Wave I love how they mix both English and Gaelic lyrics through this song; makes it very unique.

From: Aurora ; Year: 1986; Genre: Progressive Rock I recently found out about this EP from Asia and got to hear this song for the first time; I immediately liked it. Ride Easy was apparently a rarer "B-side" that only got another release on the Aurora EP. It's a really good song and should've gotten a proper album release in my opinion. I mostly love the mood and feeling throughout; it stirs very complex emotions in the listener. Hear Ride Easy on YouTube.

From: Est'd 1969 ; Year: 2019; Genre: Folk Rock I've had Maddy Prior's vocals on my mind most of the day thus far; I thought I'd pick one from Steeleye Span's most recent album.

From: America Eats Its Young ; Year: 1972; Genre: Funk/Soul It's been a bit since my last Funky Friday pick and I wanted to get back to doing them again.

From: Alice in Chains ; Year: 1995; Genre: Alternative Metal/Grunge Had some classic Layne Staley era Alice in Chains on my mind today; this one was foremost in my mind.

From: Peter Gabriel 1 (Car) ; Year: 1977; Genre: Progressive Rock It's another day where I heard a song by a certain artist and thought I would pick another one. This time it's Peter Gabriel, and I was kind of surprised I had not chosen this song yet. I love the way they more or less hide the complexity of this song in plain sight so to speak, but if you listen closely to it this one you can definitely hear that complexity.

From: Wolfmother ; Year: 2005; Genre: Hard Rock/Metal Thought I'd already picked this great song from Wolfmother, but I guess not. This one sounds like it came out in the early 70's metal era, but is 30 some odd years late. Even with that fact the music does not sound that dated and is truly an awesome track.

From: Harmony ; Year: 1971; Genre: Rock Been listening to quite a bit of Three Dog Night since last night and thought I'd go ahead and pick one.

From: Led Zeppelin IV ; Year: 1971; Genre: Rock/Hard Rock I'm in a Led Zeppelin mood today; thought it was about time I pick this song, being that it's probably the band's most popular piece. A lot had already been said about Stairway to Heaven , so I'm not sure what to say about it other than it's a legendary song that people will probably be listening to for centuries to come.

From: Bachman-Turner Overdrive ; Year: 1973; Genre: Hard Rock I had no song in mind for today, so I "spun the wheel" again so to speak and came up with this one from BTO.
