This band came up in another group a few days ago and I think their cover of the Dead and Alive hit is excellent

Have you ever been miffed that one of your favourite pieces have been hijacked for a silly ad? Or have you been pleased to hear it being aired and made accessible to a wider audience?
I must admit the former applies to me with this piece for a Specsavers TV ad:

Members of this group have mentioned their favourite songs - this is one of mine -
For You by Judie Tzuke
https://youtu.be/wds903B96V8
I saw her live in an old church at Teddington a few years ago - Just her, her two daughters on backing vocals and a guitarist.
After the show she came out and chatted to the few audience members who had stayed behind to meet her, signed autographs and posed for photos.
Her voice is still amazing but has changed slightly over the years.
In recent years she sang lead vocals on Morcheeba - Enjoy the Ride which is closer to how she sounds nowadays.

Hi Charlie please introduce yourself and tell us a little about your musical preferences -
Shakin' Stevens hada big hit with a song he wrote called Oh Julie.
In1958 the Crescendos (a US doo wop group) recorded this song entitled Oh Julie. It always reminds me of the Shakin' Stevens song - albeit a slower tempo. Is it my imagination or do you think that Shaky may have been inspired a bit by it?

I think I've recommended this series elsewhere on Scooploop - music of all genres that has really meant something in people's lives. Some of their stories about how and why are very moving.

I found this version of True Colours, recorded in March 2020 during lockdown when the choir couldn't be in physical proximity to each other, very moving. So are some of the comments below. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lqWQCWc_zCc

Anyone remember Clifford T Ward who had a hit in 1973 with Gaye. His singing career probably suffered from his reluctance to do shows on tour. He contracted MS in the 1980s and died of pneumonia in 2001 at the age of 57.
I was reminded of him recently when I heard this lovely song which he wrote and which was tucked away on the B Side of Gaye.
