Re: Biggest Fan Songs - September 2021
Just a little over a months since their first appearance The Drifters are here again, taking Clyde McPhatter with them. Ironically it is a Hymie. I will still post his entries if they come up, because they really add something to the diversity of the list. I doubt anyone minds?
981. The Drifters, featuring Clyde McPhatter – Warm Your Heart
Year: 1954
Album: Rock & Roll: Clyde McPhatter & The Drifters
Biggest Fan: Hymie (#550)

Modest Mouse – Bury Me With It: 8
Great lyrics! I also love the heavy sound. Really a band whose work I should take a dive into.
The Drifters, featuring Clyde McPhatter – Warm Your Heart: 6
The few Drifters songs I know are from the Ben E. King era. Clyde McPhatter has a very different voice. Not as smooth and more openly emotional. I don't think the song is too special, but the singing is quite good.

Re: Biggest Fan Songs - September 2021
982. Dean Blunt - Papi - 5 The only value of this song, really, is the Pink Floyd sample. Not much else to say
981. The Drifters, featuring Clyde McPhatter – Warm Your Heart - 5. Nothing special, classic Hymie. I like to have some of this style of music from time to time, but wouldn't choose to listen to it.
980. Modest Mouse – Bury Me With It - 8. Nice angular indie rock, Modest Mouse can be hit and miss, this is a hit.
979. Carly Rae Jepsen – All That - 4 - Too nice, too poppy, not very interesting
978. Steve Earle – Fearless Heart - 5. Music's OK, not fond of Earle's voice on this one.
977. Avenged Sevenfold – Seize the Day - 6 - Nice melodies, a bit over-dramatic, but this is a solid song. The singing reminds me of Faith No More ?
976. U2 – So Cruel - 5 - Decent song from Bono & co, but on their "can do better" side.
975. James Brown – Out of Sight - 7
974. The Temptations – Don’t Look Back - 5
973. Robbie Williams - Radio - 6 - Good stuff from Robbie.
972. Ming Flute Ensemble – The Song of the Four Seasons - 3

This feels like a song that needs to be heard in context of an album. It's short length and the sudden ending give the feeling that it is a bridge of sorts. Still it works, with the the Pink Floyd sample, the soothing words and the warm vocals all adding up to something comforting.

The string section bit is all that kept this from being a 1.

Ali Farka Touré with Ry Cooder - Ai Du: 7
A sprawling yet at the same time laidback type of African blues. Almost transcendental, but perhaps a little too understated to get there.
Chicago - Hard Habit to Break: 3
Although I wasn't familiar with this song I might just in the future use it as Exhibit A as for why I don't like eighties mainstream pop. It starts as a ballad that is way to sappy for its own good; a sort of earnestness that strikes me as deeply fake. Then suddenly it develops into some sort of huge, overproduced epic with drum blasts and tacky synths. I think it needs to sell us on the enormity love that the singers feel for whoever this song is meant to, but all it does is make it more plastic and even more fake. Badly executed schmaltz. But yes, the strings if taken on their own are nice.
Deacon Blue – Shifting Sand: 4
Although not as sappy as Chicago, this is an eighties ballad without any recognizable character.

Re: Biggest Fan Songs - September 2021
I think of Chicago as a '70s holdover. They were already on Chicago 17 by then. (And you thought Weezer's color titles were annoying.) The '80s, like any decade, has its share of bad love songs, with the early '80s ones leaving a bad corporate rock taste.

Also, it may have been number 17, but apparently it was their biggest seller! They were at peak popularity then, so we can't give them a backhanded compliment here for being a late-career song.

Not sure why the band started to decline so dramatically after Chicago V.
The death of Terry Kath in 1978 can be considered as marking the end of Chicago's musical innovation.
The band seemed to be somewhat aimless after Kath's death until David Foster became their producer in 1981. After 1981, Chicago was little more than soft pop rock.

Re: Biggest Fan Songs - September 2021
There are actually two artists with the name Utopia and both have released a song named Utopia Theme, but since today’s entry comes from Henry’s list I think it is safe to assume it is the Todd Rundgren outfit.

Utopia – Utopia Theme: 6
Coincidentally, it's parent album appears this week on Moderately Acclaimed. I find both hard to rate, although this song is definitely not as strong as album highlight The Ikon. Utopia Theme sounds technically impressive, but also very mechanical and cold. More importantly, I bet this sounded very futuristic in 1974, but now it is almost archaic. It hasn't aged half as well as, say, Pink Floyd's Echoes. Nonetheless, there is fun to be had, especially when the song seems to go berserk somewhere near the halfway point right before the chorus. The guitar parts are also nice. Still, of all seventies prog this won't be one I see myself returning to.

I don't actually particularly dislike this one. It is hardly inspiring, but for a band that really made some terrible songs this is fine.

This is a fun little number. It's practically *really* from the compilation Nuggets, a sort of famous collection of garage rock and psychedelic music; it typically involved minor league bands that came and went extremely quickly, so there's little use dwelling on the song being very derivative of the early Beatles.
