My Suggestions #5 [8/8/17‒1/3/18]

Here are a few songs for the rest of the summer:

• “Ain’t Got Far To Go” by Jess Glynne
• “Runnin’ Down a Dream” by Tom Petty
• “Kiss” by Prince
• “Under The Bridge” by Red Hot Chili Peppers
• “Timebomb” by Beck

Here’s an album that you should listen through at least once this month:

• The Grand Illusion by Styx  —  This album was Styx’s breakthrough and has gone triple platinum.  It’s packed with some of their greatest hits.  The whole album is like a show of its own.  The title track opens with fanfare and “The Grand Finale” provides an epic close.  In between is a story of illusion, fantasy, and American life.  You might be familiar with “Come Sail Away” and “Fooling Yourself,” but the whole album is worth hearing.  Oh and for those interested, a certain South Park character does a beautiful cover of “Come Sail Away.”

I  usually release a new suggestions list every other Tuesday, but it may be a while until my next one.  Please continue to leave your suggestions in the comments.  If I pick your song, artist, or album, I’ll give you credit for it up above when I return.
