Day two of the song challenge. Let’s see what I can come up with today:

Day 2

A song you like with a number in the title

New Order – 1963

This may come as a surprise to most, but this is one of my absolute favourite songs ever. But, it has to be this version, there is another version around that’s rather “meh” for me. I remember that I heard this on the radio and immediately hit the pause button. Let me explain this… I was one of the kids who had a tape in all the time, ready to record songs that I liked. As most, the two buttons you needed to press to record something were always pressed, as was the pause button, I only needed to release the latter to record a song. Yeah, I am that old… then again, I was young when I did that. Anyway… I never heard that song before, but it grabbed me right from the start. As it was years before the internet and search engines, I had no clue who the band was nor what the title of the song was. Years later, with Napster becoming a thing and Yahoo too, I put parts of the lyrics into the search bar and was rewarded with the title of both the song and the band. Quite a special song, laced with memories. And I still listen to it daily and never skip it when it comes on in one of my playlists.

Have a nice Saturday

Feel free to join the fun…it is never to late to start the 30 day song challenge, I am curious to see your songs and hear new stuff…
