12. DON'T LET ME BE LONELY TONIGHT

This artist is going slower than I thought, so here's #13 to end this one....

13. MEXICO

I'll skip my next turn, but if no one has a go at it.....How about this group--"THE DUPREES" (#1. YOU BELONG TO ME") ?
....or have we previously had Rod Stewart or Edmundo Ros?

I was waiting for someone to do #12 as I was planning to add Your Smiling Face as #13. Seems there aren't many James Taylor fans here. I think the Duprees will be tough.

I was planning to put forward:

Jackson 5 (or the Jacksons). ...solo hits by Michael, Jermaine, LaToya, Rebe, or Janet not allowed.

Was " Ben " just Michael Jackson ?

I think the " Duprees" would have been impossible--I have never heard of them, let alone know any of their songs--I do not think they were popular in UK

5. I'll Be There

Lindy/Mariana: Yep "Ben" was a Michael solo song.

Thanks Eman -- I've been trying to read everything; just haven't had time to post. But I did want to write about Bobby Sherman; maybe one day soon. And I'm still waiting for wowhd to deliver Matt Uncovered; I may be in the same boat as Henry. I should have ordered from hmv. Trying to save money on shipping was not a good idea! CD Wow was better than Wow HD. Maybe I should cancel it and go with HMV.

Since Lindy's was actually Michael's solo, I'll add this great track for #3. All the vocals were Michael's, but it was credited to the Jacksons.

3. This Place Hotel

(The song was originally named Heartbreak Hotel. I prefer the title Heartbreak Hotel.)

Paul, wait till you hear the new Matt cd, the tracks and remastering will blow you away. Yeah we were just wondering why you weren't on the board more, then again, with work and the lot it's understandable. Just glad your're back as your musical expertise was missed.

Guess I'm out of this one.
Only song I ever liked by any Jackson was "Ben"! :lol:

Guess that's because Don Black wrote the lyrics.

Can't think of any other Jacksons song, even though I lived through their recording years and hearing them plenty on radio.
Just didn't stick with me.

'cept "Ben".... 8)
