Sometimes I feel so bad, so bad
Sometimes I wish life was never ending,
And all good things, they say, never last" 2/2

Song Of The Day - Part 3
Today marks 10 years since we lost the incomparable Prince
Prince was a true musical force of nature & I'm sharing three songs I love by him.
The final song is the one I most closely associate with his passing. 1/2

The second is my absolute favourite song by him. It's a song that could just as easily have been written today, as it feels like so little has changed in the last 40 years when it comes to society. 2/2

having Luther on the album as a backing vocalist.
Luther Vandross left us 21 years ago, so it's good to see him finally being recognised in this way. 4/4
For me, however, I always like to remember how he helped bring David Bowie's 'Young Americans' album to life with Bowie taking Luther's original compositions, such as today's track, & either reworking them or being inspired by them, in addition to 3/4
Luther Vandross created songs that helped soundtrack the 80's to early 2000's, with hits like 'Never Too Much', 'Give Me The Reason', 'The Best Things In Life Are Free' (with Janet Jackson) &, the beautiful, 'Dance With My Father'. 2/4

Sade have released music in ever decade since they formed & have reportedly been working on new music in recent years. Maybe this induction will see it surface.
In the meantime, today's track is one of their classic tracks from '85. 4/4
drummers, Paul Cooke who left the band 2 years after their formation & then his replacement, Dave Early, who left in '85 & subsequently passed away in '96. 3/4
While most assume that, when you refer to Sade it is just the singer Sade Adu, Sade is actually the name of the band that she fronts
The band has retained the majority of the same line up for the last 44 years since they formed,with the exceptions of their first two 2/4

90's music, in the UK, had some huge distinctions from what was happening in the US, but Oasis managed to cut through without having to Americanise themselves & their sound.
This track is from the one Oasis album I like & own π 2/2

I'm glad that, in their induction, both parts of this story are being recognised as to acknowledge only one band would not be to get the whole picture. 3/3
After the loss of their singer, Ian Curtis, the rest of the band members of Joy Division could have just given up on their dreams.
Instead they renamed themselves New Order & became a massively successful group, releasing many iconic hit songs. 2/3

With a sound that was so different to anything else at that time, while their time as a band was short their legacy carries on & 46 years after the loss of their lead singer, Ian Curtis, they are still influencing artists to this day. 2/2

Billy is a British rock legend. From his time in Generation X to his decades of solo work, he's dropped hit after hit.

Today saw the passing of Moya Brennan from Clannad.
Her voice was the soul of their music & was magical to hear.
While I can't claim to be a Clannad fan, I always loved this track by Chicane that she features on.

Though I didn't think he was that cool, when I was younger, I've gotten to like his music as I've gotten older.
This absolute bop is definitely the kind of feel good tune needed for any working day π 2/2
