Published on 01/27/2023
I had this idea for a while, but didn't know the best way to present it. So, I'm approaching it one song at a time!

One of my favourite Elton John songs, I Guess That's Why They Call It the Blues (music by John and Davey Johnstone and lyrics by Bernie Taupin) was released in 1983 on the Too Low for Zero album. It also features Stevie Wonder on harmonica. Do you like this song?

I wondered why there have been so covers of this song, and then I discovered two, one by James Blunt, and the other by Canadian singer Alessia Cara. I love her version of the song. What do you think of this version?

It just may be an anthem, and probably played at every wedding, but nothing can get you up on the dance floor quicker than Gloria Gaynor's I Will Survive. I've witnessed it time and time again. As soon as the first few notes play, everyone, of all ages, rushes onto the dance floor. Do you like this song?

I first heard this version by Cake, and at first I didn't know what to think. The more I heard it, the more I liked it. It turned a joyful anthem of survival into a driven, artistic song, which I feel should be featured in movies, and TV shows. Is it better than the original? I'm not sure, but it definitely is different. I love it, but what do you think?
I love it too
