This countdown is really a gift to myself - the songs I'm singing are some of my favorites and before the inevitable decline I'd like to have a record of my versions of them. Many of them are not really songs I would normally sing, for one reason or another, so I'm being indulgent. Anyone who knows me will not be shocked that the list is heavy on ballads, so don't expect me to start rapping or anything. I am trying to stick to a couple rules:
- No songs that I have previously sung in public
- Only one song per artist can make the list - this prevents a tribute to Barbra Streisand. You're welcome!
I'm still woefully unprepared, so any suggestions for songs are welcome.
Tomorrow we go back to 1971, and my favorite song by a legendary singer-songwriter. It's been covered a million times, so what's one more...
Any guesses?
