Day 29

Really struggled to pick a favourite one for today! I’m going with the one (in the hope @arqandtheclouds.bsky.social comes good on The Wombles! 🤞😁) I just love its mood 😎

Stardust – David Essex

But he’s the leader of the band
He’s a lonely man

The drummer relaxes and waits in between shows for his Cinnamon girl

Oh yeah- Roxy Music

There’s a band playing on the Radio
With the rhythm of rhyming guitars
They playing Oh Yeah on the radio
And so came to be our song.

Dusty Springfield -Son Of A Preacher Man

When I was a child, Dusty was always on TV and I really liked her collaboration with the Pet Shop Boys much later on.

Nov 25: The Sonics - Money

Yesterday: Dionne Warwick, Walk on by

Connection: 'Walk on by' and 'Money' (by The Kingsmen) were both in the 1964 billboard charts. I just like the snotty garage version by The Sonics better.
