First off folls, real heads know that Christopher Cross is AM PLATINUM[/b] . Don't even throw his name around with this other junk. The only other artist visible in the intense glow given off by Cross' Fender Strat on hush mode is this AM bonecrushing ninja right here.
Cracklin Rosie, I Am..I Said, Kentucky Woman, Song Sung Blue and Sweet Caroline. Neil Diamond is the Bob Dylan of AM Radio.
One night I was watching Charlie Rose and just about spit up my Ramen when he straight faced asked some famous musician. "Why is it that some artists are able to keep creating while others just seem to disappear. I mean look at Christopher Cross and those two amazing records he put out and then bam nothing". Crickets. The musician looked as if Charlie had just shot him through the forehead.

See, that's a good song, but not really "White Heat."

Here are some of my favorite childhood AM gold classics:

4. "These Eyes"-The Guess Who.
5. "Tin Man"-America.
6. "Help Me"-Joni Mitchell.
7. "Lowdown"-Boz Skaggs.
8. "Chuck E's in Love"-Rickie Lee Jones.

Now you see why my friends thought I was a weirdo?

Perfect examples of White Heat.
I don't discriminate, mane, good music is good music. That's back in the 70s (except for "Sailing" I think?) when the radio played decent music.

It's just funny that a young Black kid listened to a lot of White music. Boy, did I used to get ripped on for that. I guess I was

I AM SECURE IN MY MASCULINITY, JONNY PAYCHECK (how you doin'?)
Hello, it's me
I've thought about us for a long, long time
Maybe I think too much but something's wrong
There's something here that doesn't last too long
Maybe I shouldn't think of you as mine
Seeing you
Or seeing anything as much as I do you
I take for granted that you're always there
I take for granted that you just don't care
Sometimes I can't help seeing all the way through
It's important to me
That you know you are free
'Cause I never want to make you change for me[/b]
Think of me
You know that I'd be with you if I could
I'll come around to see you once in a while
Or if I ever need a reason to smile
And spend the night if you think I should
It's important to me
That you know you are free
'Cause I never want to make you change for me[/b]
Think of me
You know that I'd be with you if I could
I'll come around to see you once in a while
Or if I ever need a reason to smile
And spend the night if you think I should

"Sometimes late
When things are real
And people share the gift of gab

That he didn't, didn't already have
And Cause never was the reason for the evening

Smoke glass stained bright color
Image going down, down, down, down
Soapsud green like bubbles."

Jyeah,... That "Ride Like the Wind" joint is as motivating as Eye of the Tiger.
w/ honorable mention to "Carefree Highway" & "Beautiful"

The King of AM Gold Tunes!

And, whether headz wanna face it or not, a true favorite AM classic of mine is:
"The Closer I Get To You" by Roberta Flack & Donny Hathaway
The Things We Do for Love - 10 CC
Yeah, that's what I meant instead of "Carefree Highway" which kind of annoys me..."Sundown" is the one that starts out
Right?
That one is awesome.
Nothing beats "If You Could Read My Mind" though. That track is next-NEXT-level
