The Pretenders – My City Was Gone
An evening pause: Hat tip Jim Mallamace. The opening chords should be very familiar to talk radio fans. As Jim says, “The 6 opening bars of the song are almost as familiar to many as the first 4 bars of Beethoven’s 5th.”
Knowing the subject matter of this song clarifies for me one reason why Rush picked it, back in 1988, when his show started.
The Pretenders — I’ ll Stand By You
An evening pause: Though the song was made a big hit I think by Carrie Underwood, here we see it performed by the creators.
Hat tip to Matt in AZ, who clued me in to this group.
