Manfred Mann. Haven't thought about them in literally decades! Speaking of Another One Bites the Dust: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hF7xTTvU2sM&t=3s(Sorry. )
I think I'm quite ready for another adventure.

I found or already knew tunes to get up to 30 somewhat to my surprise (didn't bother trying beyond that): there are various songs about road numbers and addresses which bridge some of the (expected) gaps, and of course songs referring to more than one number. If you've had enough of this theme how about songs with colours in the title (unless that cropped up earlier in the thread) or perhaps months?

And there's also this.I rode in an elevator with him once in New York City at the CBS-TV Studios back in 1966.

Yep, that would have been my Purple choice. Great selections, some of which I'd never heard before. I was never a huge fan of Prince's music, but you sure do have to admire the showmanship and the artistry. I'm always struck by that. There are a few artists like that, who have undeniable talent but I can't really get into their music, like George Michael and Annie Lennox, both with gorgeous voices and music that doesn't appeal to me that much, except for some notable tracks. I would say Celine Dion, but her choice of music is just so uniformly awful I can't listen to her at all. EDIT: And I might add, If I'm going to beat you two to the punch here, I'll have to get up before I go to bed!

It sure does. I remember the song but could never have named the band.

Thnaks so much for the Annie Lennox cover. I have never heard that And how good was Amy.

Any Winehouse had stratospheric talent. What a waste.
I had forgotten about Annie Lennox's cover of Whiter Shade of Pale, and of course it popped up on my feed when I grabbed the original Procol Harum version. Annie's version really is quite wonderful, isn't it?

Hey, remember this song about green? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LVhtytqr3VAI think these guys must have been a one-hit wonder.

I can honestly say I don't think I have ever heard that song.
