FYI Bad Company's "Movin' On" was first released in 1974 on their debut Bad Company, not 1975. Sorry about the lateness of this comment, but I just realized this when casting my ballot! | |

Sorry Rick, I've been dealing with graduation today so I just saw this. It stinks that I got the year wrong. I'm ok with not getting a chance to put in that other song, especially since I hadn't listened to it. | |

America's Lonely People was first released in June 1974 on their album Holiday, not 1975 If Nick will let you, maybe you can nominate "Daisy Jane" by America from 1975 or something else. | |

About The Song Project, Kenmil wrote: | |
Great artist selection. Al Jarreau has so many great songs. It's rather shocking that not a single song of his had been inducted here, before. I own 8 of his albums, and it's really hard to narrow down one selection. Most of his biggest hits are from the 80's, but I've decided to go back a little bit farther to the first song I heard by him, when I was in high school. Al Jarreau - Thinkin' About It Too (1978) Cheers! Kenmil | |

KING, thanks for the kind words. It's a privilege to be part of this wonderful community and to share the same birthday month with you. Happy Birthday to you. I remember we did "long songs" with 5 min+ and it was quite excellent. I hope this works with short songs too. My nominees: Pixies - Crackity Jones (1989) [1:24] The Beach Boys - Little Honda (1964) [1:52] Hazel Dickens & Alice Gerrard - Train on the Island (1973) [1:44] Simon & Garfunkel - 59th Street Bridge Song (Feelin' Groovy) (1966) [1:43] I will come up with some suggestions later. I know it needs a bit of work to figure out the running time and suggestions can be useful in this case. Al Jarreau - Boogie Down (1983) Al Jarreau - Trouble in Paradise (1983) | |
