Song Of The Day: Dec. 16, 2017
In the Year Of King Cheeto, only one song could possibly have topped my list as Song Of The Year for 2016. But first, the countdown from a year full of great music (if you’re not checking these lists out, you’re missing some incredible tunes). My Song Of The Year (NSFW) was written in April […]
Song Of The Day: Dec. 15, 2017
My fave song of 2015, although about how a child sought sanctuary from an abusive father, was also my fave b/c it took place in the squared circle of…pro rasslin’. First, the entire countdown! And, now, the Heavyweight Champeen:
Song Of The Day: Dec. 14, 2017
I had no doubt about my choice for Best Song Of 2014. Every bit as timely now as it was then. Perhaps more. But first, the 2014 countdown: https://delawareliberal.net//2014/12/30/bulos-fave-tunes-of-2014-the-top-ten/ Here’s what American Songwriter wrote about this song: “Alynda Lee Segarra takes more than 100 years of murder ballads to task on this standout from Hurray […]

We continue our visit to Songs Of The Year Past. 2012. First, here is the 2012 Countdown, presented in two parts: https://delawareliberal.net//2012/12/11/bulos-best-songs-of-2012-part-1/ https://delawareliberal.net//2012/12/12/best-songs-of-2012-the-top-10/ I really like this list, and love the #1, a white hot slab of adrenaline that Husker Du would have been proud to release:
Song Of The Day: Dec. 11, 2017
As I prepare this year’s list of my 50 Fave Songs, I figured I’d check back on my #1 choices from years past. Starting, of course, in reverse chronological order. Wonder how they’ll stand the test of time. From 2011: Since my #2 was so distinctly different, and since I seriously considered it for #1, […]
Song Of The Day: Dec. 10, 2017
I love it when an impromptu Tex-Mex week breaks out. Let’s dance the week out in style with Joe ‘He’s The King!’ Carrasco:
Song Of The Day: Dec. 9, 2017
One of the great characters in rock ‘n roll history created one of the most memorable Tex-Mex classics. BTW, the song was not about his cat. If you wanna sing along, here are the lyrics: Uno, dos, one, two, tres, quatro Matty told Hatty about a thing she saw. Had two big horns and a […]

Went looking for Raul Malo‘s version of ‘Is Anybody Goin’ To San Antone?’, per Bamboozer’s comment. Couldn’t find it, but found this one, and it cooks:

Had to do it, had to do it. Check out the Kinky Friedman shoutout: OK, kids, Trivia Time. Without looking it up, who had the first hit with this song? If you know, you’re more country than me. Which, come to think of it, isn’t all that difficult.
Song Of The Day: Dec. 6, 2017
Don’t get no more Tex-Mex than the Texas Tornados: Doug ‘Sir Douglas’ Sahm, Augie Meyers, Freddy Fender and Flaco Jimenez:
Song Of The Day: Dec. 5, 2017
Just a great bleeping song. Written by Butch Hancock, performed by Joe Ely and a blistering band. The Clash liked them so much they had them open for them in the early ’80’s:
Song Of The Day: Dec. 4, 2017
Why this song? It entered my head yesterday, and refused to leave. Real life? Perhaps at one time…:
Song Of The Day: Dec. 3, 2017
We end Underground Motown Week with a great underappreciated classic from 1967. Written by Smokey Robinson, performed by the Marvelettes. Lead singer Wanda Young-Rogers was married to Miracles’ member Bobby Rogers for awhile, and has lived a hard life: BTW, betcha can’t guess who covered this song. Someone who knew a great song when she […]
