Thanks for the well wishes, everyone. I’m fine, honestly. That’s my second panic attack ER visit this year, which is about normal. Let’s get back to the important stuff: music!!! Yesterday we had a pop classic from the 50s....

”What do you have planned today?” It’s a common question. What you have planned and what actually happens are two different things. Trust me, I didn’t have “ER visit” on my bingo card for today. November is...

My 100 Favorite Charted Pop Songs: A Tear Fell

Four Walls @FourWalls (68121) • United States 23 Nov

For the next few songs you won’t need to compare the country side with this side. This side will have enough head-scratching variety for you. From new wave/post punk acts like Talking Heads and Rockpile we move to...

With next week being Thanksgiving everything is out of whack, and that includes my eating. I have to go to Mark’s on Wednesday to get my turkey, so I’m eating at Chuy’s for lunch today. At least I’m retired and I don’t have the...

While it may run the gamut on the rock side of these two lists of my 100 favorite charted songs, you have to admit that the country side has been pretty consistent. No Garth, no Shania, and a lot of songs from before I was born....

It was 61 years ago today that President Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas. I was all of three, so don’t ask what I remember. The answer is probably cloth diapers. I remember this, though, a great song that I think...

Four Walls @FourWalls (68121) • United States 22 Nov

”Pop” is a misnomer here, but this is the “hot 100” or popular songs chart (not “pop music” in the sense of Frank Sinatra or Perry Como, who have also graced this list). And what else goes with a Tex Ritter song but this?...

My 100 Favorite Charted Pop Songs: Take Me to the River

Four Walls @FourWalls (68121) • United States 21 Nov

Today’s combination just might be the killer. We have, on one hand, late 70s new wave-meets-R&B; while here, we have mid 40s Western music. And for you newcomers, YES, I really do love both songs, and I really AM just one person....

At least this is a good counterbalance to that country song I just posted. If you’re wondering (or even if you aren’t), we’re at songs #77 on the alphabetical lists of my favorite charted songs. Here’s one that...

Oh, now you’re in for it! We’ve had all of these great 60s country music wigs, and now you get a country music DRESS! Look at that hoop skirt!! And I’ll warn you now, the song matches that hoop skirt, so be forewarned before you...

Just to show how crazy my music tastes can swing, we have a traditional honky tonk era country song…and THIS. Oh, there’s more traditional pop to be had on this list, but for now, Ol’ Blue Eyes is here to sing...

One of the places I stopped on the way home from that mesmerizing trip to Tower Rock Natural Area was the Land Between the Lakes National Recreation Area. I guess I forgot to post a discussion about it because I was so...

Welcome to the “dang, that’s a long title!” portion of the list. Look at the bright side, “Jeremiah Peabody’s Polyunsaturated Fast-Dissolving, Quick-Acting, Pleasant-Tasting Green and Purple Pills” ISN’T on the list!...

The dirty S word is officially in the forecast. They say it’ll be the “festive flakes” kind…you know, when you see the first few flakes of the year and say, “Ooh, look, it’s sn*wing!” I saw a great welcome mat...

Proper credit to @TheHorse for stealing his clickbait title. This isn’t a complaint, it’s a fact of life. I’ve been hemorrhaging money this month. We’ve all had “those” months, and this one is mine. There were...

Along with the country music you get a rock song. And today, you’ll probably be pulling your hair out either way. Fear not, there will be better days (not to mention that there are only 25 left after today)....

Probably to nobody’s big surprise this guy is showing up again. Hey, I can’t help myself! When I say I like his music, I mean it! Meanwhile, today’s rock song is power pop. How about that for a...

With a song title like that, I do NOT have to tell you that this is a country song. So I’ll just say we’re welcoming back a frequently visitor, usually as a songwriter, for his only appearance as a singer on this...
