Reba McEntire – Fancy

Once again it is musical throwback Thursday.  Don’t listen to a lot country music but every now again there is one the stick out.  Fancy by Reba McEntire is one.  While looking up info found out her version is a cover.  It was first recorded by Bobbie Gentry in 1969.   Reba’s version is off her 1990 album Rumor Has It.  This is a really good song.  You can hear/watch > here or below.

Alannah Myles – Love Is

That day of the week again, musical throwback Thursday.  The pick this week is Love Is by Alannah Myles.  While this this song is not as famous as her other big hit Black Velvet.  I like this on much better.  In that late 80’s early 90’s these songs were every where.  They are both off the same self titled album, Alannah Myles.  You can give it a listen/watch > here or below.

Moby – South Side feat. Gwen Stefani

Once again it is musical throwback Thursday.  The pick this time is another Moby song, South Side feat. Gwen Stefani.  Can remember this being a big hit.  Haven’t heard this one in many years until writing this post.  Think it holds up really well.  Their to voices together work really well.  This song if off this 1999 album Play.  You can give it a listen/watch > here or below.

That day of the week again,  musical throwback Thursday.  The picked time is We Are All Made of Stars by Moby.  Has been awhile since I have picked one of his songs.  This is a good one off this 2002 album 18.  The music video which you can see > here or below is full of celebrity cameos.  Don’t cheat and see how many you recognizes.

Earth, Wind & Fire – September

Once again it is musical throwback Thursday.  Not sure why I never have picked this song for past September’s.   Well have now, it is September by Earth, Wind & Fire.  This is a very famous song.  Has been used in lots of movie and shows over the years.  It is off their 1978 album, The Best of Earth, Wind & Fire Vol. 1.  You can give it a listen/watch > here or below.

Pet Shop Boys – West End Girls

That day of the week again, musical throwback Thursday.  Have picked another Pet Shop Boys song this week.  It is their very famous song, West Ends Girls.  According to Wikipedia the song was released twice.  First as a single and then off their 1986 album Please.  Think it holds up well.  You can give the video a watch/listen > here or below.

Pet Shop Boys – Always On My Mind

Once again it is musical throwback Thursday.   Have all ways know Always On My Mind by the Pet Shop Boys as an original.  Turns out that is not true.  The song has was first released back in 1972.  Since then it has been covers by many famous artiest, like Elvis and Willie Nelson.  Since writing this post listened to those versions as well.  But I still like the Pet Shop Boys one.  Which you can see/hear > here or below.  That is off their 1988 album Introspective.

[Update posted this a day early.]

Dr. Alban – It’s My Life

That day of the week again, musical throwback Thursday.  The 90’s were filled with songs like It’s My Life by Dr. Alban.  Where there is spoken word/rap mixed in with a female voice doing the chorus.  That being said a lot of them a still hold up.  Not sure if this would be one.  You can judge for yourself > here or below. This is off this 1992 album One Love.

Gotye – Somebody That I Used To Know (feat. Kimbra)
