OK, this is awkward! I don’t really like much of the music I’ve heard by Maroon 5…and I do not watch “The Voice!” (I’m an “Idol” guy!) Now that that’s out of the way, let’s get down to the magic of this record. Great hook…one of the best I’ve heard in years…and a beat you […]
Song Of The Day by Eric Berman – “I Wanna Dance With Somebody” by Whitney Houston
While I was never a huge fan of Whitney Houston, it’s hard to deny that she was superbly talented. Once again, the star making machinery brought someone to the highest of highs and then seemingly jettisoned her to the gutter when the world was through with her.

Song Of The Day by Eric Berman – “You’re Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go” by Miley Cyrus

Song Of The Day by Eric Berman – “Easy Come Easy Go” by Cass Elliot
Song Of The Day by Eric Berman – “Easy Come Easy Go” by Cass Elliot Only in the 1960s could someone as robust as Cass Elliot become an equally big star. Sure, she had talent to burn and a set of unrivalled pipes, but in this day of the thinner than thin in showbiz, she […]
Song Of The Day by Eric Berman – “Waters Of March” by Art Garfunkel
Song Of The Day by Eric Berman – “Waters Of March” by Art Garfunkel Art Garfunkel certainly missed his calling during his post Simon & Garfunkel solo career.
