Song of the day: Black- Wonderful Life
When at first you don’t succeed, you try again. That must have been the strategy of Black. He had written a song after divorcing his wife, which he recorded solo under the name of the group he had first been in (which was a trio called Black).

Song of the day: Kiss- I Was Made For Lovin’ You

Something stronger than yesterday. That is the song of today. It’s hardrock!

That’s stronger, isn’t it?
Song of the day: Michael Jackson- Thriller

Michael was the first black artist to be shown on MTV, because MTV couldn’t avoid the clips of Michael, which are all pearls.
Have a lot of fun with it!
