Another great cut from Michael Jackson’s 1987 album BAD.
This is Mariah Carey’s modern addition to the holiday classics — the 1994 hit single ‘All I Want For Christmas Is You’. The song, co-written with Walter Afanasieff reached Top 10 status around the globe and has spurred many covers from Shania Twain to Lady Antebellum and, most successfully, Michael Buble.
Sly & The Family Stone’s 1968 #1 Soul single about peace and harmony between all the brothers and sisters.
‘Dance To The Music’ was Sly & The Family Stone’s first single to hit the Billboard Pop Top 10. The 1968 influential dose of ‘psychedelic soul’ has been rated #223 on Rolling Stone’s ‘500 Greatest Songs Of All Time’.
‘All Or Nothing At All’ is a gorgeous 1939 love song from Jack Lawrence and Arthur Altman. Given the melancholic stylings of ‘Old Blue Eyes’ it becomes a heartfelt, painful tale of how a man can’t live without the one he loves. The song was a hit for Sinatra and his then bandleader, the great Harry James. Sinatra reportedly used it as his audition tune to secure a slot with the Tommy Dorsey band. The song has seen many treatments from the greats such as Chet Baker, Coltrane, Sarah Vaughan and Diana Krall but none can compare with the great Sinatra original.
Stevie recorded an up tempo version of this classic ballad taking it to #2 on the Billboard Pop and R&B charts.
