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.)

Lyric Of The Day #10 (April 26, 2020)

If they don't give me no consolation
I'm gonna take it to the United Nations
 
 
One of my favorite Chuck Berry couplets.

    I'm gonna take my problem to the United Nations
    Well, I called my congressman and he said, 'whoa!'
    I'd like to help you son but you're too young to vote'"

    1. Good one -- and thanks for your earlier shout-out to Live at Leeds. I wasn't real familiar with it, but picked it up shortly thereafter.
