The
Flamingos are, without a doubt, my favorite doo-wop group of all time, with the
most unique vocal harmonies. To be honest, the only reason this one didn’t make
it into my original top 100 is that I couldn’t decide on my favorite song of
theirs, with “Lovers Never Say Good-bye” and “Time Was” being the other two
contenders. This one finally came out on top, as it’s probably the best song of
the three, was certainly their only big hit, and epitomizes their perfect-for-late-night-romance
sound.
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.)
