Great pop song.
This is so funny! I have an 80's mix on my iPod and Like a Prayer came on today and I paused to think how great she was in the 80's! Huge! She had some really great songs in that decade. Into The Groove is bad ass!101Walterton wrote: ↑26 Oct 2017, 6:25pmGreat pop song.
I like Madonnas voice in the 80s, Cherish, Holiday, Into The Groove, Papa Don’t Preach, Crazy For You.
There is a quote from someone who says that Rod's voice was one of the most wasted things in music history. I agree. With Beck, Faces, and early solo it was a thing of beauty...but then just wasted.revbob wrote: ↑26 Oct 2017, 6:04pmJist went and listened to some old Rod Stewart songs. Never really listened to the Faces but his voice seems to work with the material. Then I rook another listen to Jeff Beck's album Truth for the first time in 30 years and I think its a pretty great album but I think Stewart detracts from the album overall.
I thi k Elvis Costello said something along those lines.WestwayKid wrote: ↑26 Oct 2017, 6:39pmThere is a quote from someone who says that Rod's voice was one of the most wasted things in music history.

Her voice was a little squeaky on some of the early stuff, but she certainly isn't a bad singer by any stretch.

He did some good stuff...but so very quickly sold out and made record after record after record of crap. He's to the point where he could never redeem himself.

I won't try and defend my stance by posting example after example of a good Rod tunes...I'll just try and deflect by posting this:
