Songs I'd completely forgotten about

[PermanentTemporary]

Just standing listening open mouthed to The Only Living Boy In New York simon and Garfunkel. I knew that song so well when I was a kid, probably havent heard it for 20 years.

I have it on my favourites on Spotify so hear it daily, I think it's the best song they ever did

I recently heard Kiss you all Over by a group called Exile and I had completely forgotten about it.

Ooh just trying that now

I recently heard 'Welcome home' by Peter's and Lee for the first time in probably over 30 years. I stood at the kitchen sink crying my eyes out. It reminded me of my childhood and loved ones that have gone.

I have all these in some form at home. Both 'Welcome Home' and 'Don't Stay Away Too Long' are English translations of European hits.

I have recently become reacquainted with:
Lighthouse Family - High
Jon Secada - just another day
The Corrs - Dreams

All 3 upset me as they bring me great comfort. I'm sure there's more, I will add them if I think of them

I was watching TOTP from 1989 the other week - I'd forgotten how good the Marc Almond and Gene Pitney version of 'Something's Gotten Hold of my Heart' was - and I've got the album (on cassette!) stored away somewhere, purchased in a fervour of liking at the time.

Spiders and Snakes by Jim Stafford. The guitar riff is very similar to that used in the Cheggers Plays Pop theme (for those of us old enough to remember ).

Two by the Beatles, very early ones - " Mr Moonlight," and "Anna." Both great.
