Midday Music Day 18.  Foolish Heart by Steve Perry.

 Does anyone know why Steve Perry stopped making music?

Midday Music Day 17.  Oh Sherrie  by Steve Perry.

Like many, I’m a huge Steve Perry fan.  When Perry’s album Street Talk  was at the top of the charts I remember a buddy of mine who was into music big time, said, “Perry’s got the best pipes in the business.”

I don’t know about his plumbing, but Steve Perry can sing.

Midday Music Day 14.  Tell It To My Heart  by Taylor Dayne.

Some of our Midday Music songs are better without the video… proceed at your own risk.

Today we have Pokey LaFarge and his latest release Something in the Water.

Midday Music Day 13.  Never Gonna Give You Up by Rick Astley.

Yeah, you’ve been Rick Rolled.

Midday Music Day 12. Jessie’s Girl by Rick Springfield.

I always thought the line…

And I’m lookin’ in the mirror all the time
Wondering what she don’t see in me,

…was pretty clever.

Midday Music Day 11. Angel is a Centerfold by J. Geils Band.

This song was never really a favorite.  Then last year we had to put down our dog, Bruiser, who was nearly 17 years old.  It was a tough time for me.  I got in the car to go to work the morning after and the first words on the radio were: “The memory of my angel could never cause me pain.”  For whatever reason that seemed like the words I needed to hear.  Anyway… on to the song.

Midday Music Day 10. Bette Davis Eyes by Kim Carnes.

Midday Music Day 9. Gloria by Laura Branigan.

Midday Music Day 8. Born To Be Alive by Patrick Hernandez.

My buddy, Jim Ivey who is 89 now, hates this song.  Sometimes when playing poker we’d have the radio as background music – this is the only song I can remember him complaining about.  So this one’s for you, Jim!

How about a little Blurred Lines Bluegrass?

Midday Music Day 7. Kung Fu Fighting by Carl Douglas.

Midday Music Day 5.  Play that Funky Music  by Wild Cherry.
