So it's my favorie time of summaries. So, let's get things done. The ultimate top 20 (22 to be precise :>) songs played by me in the year 2007.
20-22.
Can't Take My Eyes Off You (NEW)
Well, memories, memories and even more memories. This song reminds me of two great women I tried to be with. Both unsuccessful. Still I'll never forget the moment I sang it to one of them in a club ;) You know - just like in "10 Things I Hate About You" ;)
20-22.
Komu bije... (NEW)
The verse "Dlaczego mam oczy mokre, stojąc pod Twoim oknem?" says it all. No need to explain.
20-22.
If You Could Read My Mind (NEW)
Better than original by
Gordon Lightfoot. Yes, if I could read their minds... Women...
17-19.
Help Me (NEW)
Lord, Help me walk
Another mile, just one more mile
I'm tired of walkin' all alone
I could have as well written it myself...
17-19.
Bridge Over Troubled Water (NEW)
Another cover by the great late
Johnny Cash. I just find his last recordings better than anything. EMOTIONS are what I'm looking for in music. Here, Cash delivers them perfectly.
17-19.
Blues dla Małej (NEW)
Not the best well known song of this band, but I find it particularly good, because of numerous factors. Emotional lyrics, delivery and harmonica are some of them...
14-16.
Ne Me Quitte Pas (NEW)
French song in my charts is really a rare thing to see, but this one deserves it. Just listen to this emotional delivery...
14-16.
Amazed (NEW)
Well, again women... I was so amazed... And it ended just like it always does...
14-16.
Wasting the Dawn (NEW)
Some may wish never to be born
Wastin' the dawn
I sometimes feel like that... Amazing tune...
12-13.
Czerwony jak cegła (-7)
Now this is one of two Dżem songs in this year's summary and the ONLY song from the WHOLE list that also appeared on it last year. 7 places drop, but still a great song.
12-13.
Ćma barowa (NEW)
Now this is another, and last, one by Dżem. It's from their latest album (though 3 years old). Again, lyrics... Loneliness, drinking, etc...
11.
Your Song (NEW)
I sang it for her too... Long story... Memories, memories... Geez, all the songs here are from the first quarter of the year...
10.
Can't Help Falling In Love (NEW)
She sang it to me... You know...
9.
Hymne ASEC (NEW)
Curious thing. This is a football song, sang by a former football player from Ivory Coast. It's an anthem of ASEC Mimosas Abidjan, one of the greatest African football clubs.
8.
Thank You (NEW)
If the sun refused to shine
I would still be loving you
Isn't that the most beautiful thing you can say to a woman?
7.
First Time Ever I Saw Your Face (NEW)
I already wrote about those covers by Cash. Pure emotions... Everybody should know them. Better than original. Rest in peace Johnny
6. I'm Free from the Chain Gang Now (NEW)
What a song... He is free... From the chain gang named life...
4-5. Trzy Zapałki (NEW)
The only song by TSA in the charts. High enough and fully deserved place. Congratulations.
4-5. Jedyne co mam (NEW)
The highest ranked Polish song (ex aequo with TSA). Real surprise, as this band has never been my top league. Again, lyrics and emotions...
3. Would You Lay With me (NEW)
The highest ranked Johnny Cash song this year. That's what love is all about, ain't it? Being together in good and bad, happy and sad...
2. Your Song (NEW)
Filipino song in my charts? Oh yes. And what a song! It really does bring memories of some great women in my life. You all were great... You all hurt me... I never regretted meeting any of you...
1. You're Beautiful (NEW)
Prophetic on the top:
But it's time to face the truth
I will never be with you
And that was it. The top 22 songs of the passing year... Feel free to comment on them.
