As a fan of a wide variety of popular (and not-so-popular) music from the 1950s (and sometimes even earlier) up through the present, one of my bucket list projects for years has been to put together a list of my 100 favorite songs of all time. At some point I decided that, once I got around to figuring that out, I could put it out on a blog, for the infinitesimally small proportion of the Internet world that might be interested. So, here we are. While the Top 100 will be a major focus, I also plan to post on a variety of other musical (and occasionally non-musical) topics, in which you may or may not be interested. (If a particular posting doesn’t ring your bell, you’re only a few clicks away from a dancing cat video on YouTube.)

#186 Should I Cry – The Concords (1964)


 
Absolutely fantastic up-tempo doo-wop, every bit as good as the Del Vikings’ “Come Go With Me”. The former hit the top 10 in 1957, while this one, like “Morse Code Of Love” and “Rainy Day Bells”, had the misfortune to come out after doo-wop’s popularity had peaked. Life is like that sometimes.
