No. 110 - Eagles - Hotel California

Love the Eagles and this will always be the song everyone associates them with.

"I heard the mission bell

And I was thinking to myself,

"This could be Heaven or this could be Hell""

No. 111 - Aswad - African Children

The best British reggae act in Britain, then now and forever. Related to the black youth and tried to reach the white youth through the lyrics the hardship of growing up in Maggie's Britain.

"Structural repairs are assessed yet not done

Lift out of action on the twenty-seventh floor

And when they work they smell"

No. 112 - Danzig - mother

My wife Karen got me into Danzig, I think she fancied him, rather than liking his music. great song for the old tread mill or long bike ride.

"Father

Do you wanna bang heads with me

Do you wanna feel everything

Oh father"

No. 113 - Elvis Costello - Alison

My favorite Elvis Costello song, simple and beautiful at the same time. I know a Alison now and this is for her.

"Well I see you've got a husband now.

Did he leave your pretty fingers lying

in the wedding cake?"

No. 114 - David Bowie - Starman - Live 1972

Remember seeing this on top of the pops and was the talk of the playground the next day. Became a Bowie fan there and then and  wanted to be Ronno.

"I had to phone someone so I picked on you

Hey, that's far out so you heard him too!"

No. 115 - Jimi Hendrix - Hear My Train A Comin

We sometimes forget Jimi could play acoustic as well as electric guitar.

 

"Gonna leave this town

Gonna make a whole lotta money"

 

No. 116 - Bob Marley & The Wailers - No Woman No Cry (Live)

"My feet is my only carriage

And so I've got to push on through."

 

Bob was a fantastic poet, humanitarian and fantastic musician and pretty good  with a football.

No. 117 - Ian Hunter - 3,000 Miles From Here

A fantastic love song by Ian Hunter.

"If you hear a young dove crying

You'll know it's me to blame"

No 118 - Fleetwood Mac - Man of the world

What can I say but this line sums it up for me

"And there's no one I'd rather be

But I just wish that I'd never been born"

For someone to have every thing but discovers that really he hasn't anything and wishes he wasn't born?

No 119 - Plan B - She Said

Quite simply a fantastic song, fantastic lyrics,, great video.

"Got bigger than I ever could have planned

Like that song by the Zutons Valerie"
