your life theme song.............

[comicpisces11]

I can't imagine "Say You, Say Me" was the top song 2 years ago!

[KC8t80]

well Lionel Richie was big in the 80s and that was when i was born.....so it makes sense to me.

what year did u put for u?

[comicpisces11]

It's supposed to be the top song when you turned 18, not when you were born. But now that you said that, I think I'll go back and check that out too!

Black Water - Doobie Brothers US
If - Telly Savalas UK

I love the Doobie Brothers...especially that song...so I'm happy about that. I have no idea whi "If" is....probably why they have that name.

If - Telly Savalas UK

Hm. Like Kojak Telly Savalas?? Sang and had a hit on UK radio?

That's something rather out of the ordinary.

U.S. :Hey Ya - Outkast
U.K. :Mad World - Michael Andrews feat Gary Jules

It was Kojak!!!!!

Telly

Bored with being a famous TV star? Make a record!
"People know that singing is not my bag," says Telly Savalas on the liner notes to this 1974 release, "but if I say, 'Hey, this is how Telly feels about this or that song,' I can't mistakes. I can only make mistakes by pretending to be a great singer".

A classic example of the "famous actor makes a record" genre, Telly uses his ill-begotten allotment of vinyl to thrill us with mediocre versions of "Something", "You and me against the world", "Rubber bands and bits of string", and many (far too many) others. Unfortunately, Telly's classic New York drawl gets drowned out by the music on all but a few of the tracks, making this album practically worthless even to die-hard Kojak fans.

What is an actor doing making a record, you ask? Telly answers this question by modestly saying, "I was asked to make a record". One has to wonder exactly who did the asking, though.
