Hi folks, Chris Tuger on Lifestyles 55 and the Quest for Silver. As we listen to songs that we remember from the last century for opening numbers, we don't work anymore. Several golden platinum dishes on the world. And more than one hundred and thirty of his singles and albums have reached the UK top twenty. More than any other artist.

SPEAKER_02

I can't believe we can throw it away. Used to feel we had a maid. Used to feel we could stay away. Can you imagine how I feel today? When it seemed a long time ago. Now I've come to letting go. You are the only one. Do you know what you got? Stop funny. How we don't talk anymore. Stop funny. I guess you're leaving what was meant to be. It's down to you now. You wanna be free. Wow, you know which way to go. You're on your own again. Don't come crying to me. You're the lonely one We never want to die. Oh, it's so funny. How we don't talk anymore. It's so funny. Why we don't talk anymore. But I don't think I got to No. It's not funny. Why we don't talk about the Red Hat?

SPEAKER_04

We are going to slow the pace with that middle comes on the title track for the nineteen seventy nine movie.

SPEAKER_02

Just remember in the winter farm the bitter snow lies the seed that with the sun's love in the sleep becomes the rock.

SPEAKER_04

Shifting years, we find ourselves in the throes of some of the best work by Kenny Rogers, who, as you well know, started his singing career as a rocker with the first edition, and songs like I just dropped in to see what condition my condition was in. But today we know he scored, and scored big, with songs like this.

SPEAKER_00

Everyone considered him the coward of the county. He never stood one single time to prove the county wrong. His mama named him Tommy, but folks just called him Yellow. Something always told me they were reading Tommy wrong. He was only ten years old when his daddy died in prison. I looked after Tommy, cause he was my brother's son. I still recall the final words my brother said to Tommy. Son, my life is over, but yours has just begun. Walk away from cold again. I hope you're gonna understand. You don't have to fight to be a man. There's someone for everyone, and I'm his love with Becky. In her arms he didn't have to prove he was a man. One day while he was working, the gatlin boys came calling. They took turns at Becky. There was three of them. Tommy opened up the door, saw his Becky crying. Worn dressed, a shattered look more than he could stand. He reached above the fireplace and took down a bad picture. As a tears fell on a daddy's face, he heard these words again. Walk away from trouble again. I won't need to weak if you turn back. I hope you're old enough to understand. But you don't have to fight to be a man. The gallant boy just laughed at him when he walked into the bar room. One of them got up and met him halfway across the floor. When Tommy turned around, they said, Hello, yellow to leave him. But you could have heard a pen drop when Tommy stopped and locked the door. Twenty years of crawling, bottled up inside him. He wasn't holdin' nothing back. He let him have it all. When Tommy left the bar room, I got on the boy was standing. He said that once for Becky. As we watched the last four, I heard him say, I promised to death not to do the things you've done. I walk away from trouble when I can. Now please don't think I'm weak. I didn't turn the energy. And I truth you understand. Sometimes you gotta fight when you're a man. Everyone considered him the coward of the county.

SPEAKER_04

It's another twin spin on L55 and the Q4S with me, Mr. T. Bob Singer did very well in the latter stages of the 20th century with songs like these next two on the customer at the top of the charts. For weeks fire late and Against the Windows.

Always violate.

SPEAKER_02

Who was afraid to choose? You remember Uncle Joe? He was almost afraid to cut the cage. Shows one off is to brave those bronze beauties lying in the sun with a long, soft hair of wall, lying as they run. Oh, they smile so shy, and they fly so well, and they lace you down so fast. To look straight up and say, Oh Lord, am I really? Who wants to play those eights and aces? Who wants to raise? Who is the straight? Who wants to take that? Seems like yesterday. But it was long ago. Jane it was lovely, she was a queen by night. There in the darkness with the radio, playing overhead, the secrets that we shared. Mountains that we move Caught like a wildfire out of control. Till there was nothing left to burn and nothing left to prove. I remember how she held me all sometimes. Wish I didn't know now what I didn't know then against the wind. We were running against the wind. We were young and strong. We were running against the wind. The years rolled slowly past. I found myself alone. Surrounded by strangers, I thought were my friends. Find myself further and further from my home. Guess I lost my will. So many roads. Never worrying about pain or even how much I owe. Moving eight miles a minute for months at a time. Breaking all the rules that were spending. I began to find myself searching. Searching for shelter again again gets win myself seeking shelter against the win these days I has me now I've got so much money to make that What's it What's it about Yes I'm still running it all the time I'm still running now I'm still running still running Against the wind I'm still running against the wind Against the wind Against the wind Against the wind running against the wind Again Disco was the predominant genre of the seventies and eighties But with a twist of skilled artistry Donna Summer is up to the microphone on the radio She was a victim of lung cancer but prior to her demise she earned the right to be addressed with her title as the Reigning Queen of Discount is high well You lost the falling out of a hole in your brown of a core They never said your name but I knew just who they meant Well I was so surprised and shy and I wonder too If I chance you heard it for yourself I never told the soldiers how I've been feeling over you But they say feeling how they say it only out on the video Won the video Well now it can strike you sad when you hear a song Things are not the same since we broke up last year The only thing that I wanna hear is that your love is still And that you think you'll be coming home real soon Oh yeah you kinda made me feel right when I heard you say You couldn't find the words to say what you said Now I'm on I know I can say what I really feel Cause they said it feeling out they said it on the air on the video on the video on the video on the video on the video If you think the love is found on the reality you may find the love you are sitting here with the man I sent away long ago on the video A very beautiful ballad is up now thanks to the recording by Dan Vogelberg who also met an early demise due to prostate cancer at fifty-six years of age it speaks to his desire to have lived a little bit longer and longer is the title of this wonderful legacy of Dan Vogelberg Longer than there have been fishes in the ocean higher than any bird ever blew longer than there've been stars up in the heavens I've been in love with you stronger than any mountain can be grown truer than any tree ever grew deeper than any forest prime I am in love with you I ring while you're in the winters use showers in the springs we fly through the falls and summers with love on our way through the years as the fire starts to bellow burning lines in the book of our lives though the vine cracks and the page is got to yellow I'll be in love with you I'll be in love with it for this longer than there's been fishes in the ocean higher than any bird ever knew longer than there's been stars up in the heavens I've been in love with you I am in love with you another female artist who was almost incomparable when it comes to her style and grace especially in the studio her voice has been silent but we can remember her fondly with her multitude of recording like this cover of the song so bad previously recorded by Little Anthony and the Imperial and the Latterman on L55 with me Standing here looking at you with the tell that it's so bad it made me so sad it makes me it so bad to see you again like needles in pin people say you've been looking out okay he's in love don't stand in his way well let me tell you that it's so bad it made me so sad it's bad it's so bad you do want the way Why don't you stay and let me make it do you I'll do anything you want me to do you love me so before you get I can't let you go back to her before I'm so bad come back and so back and so bad come back and so back the head so bad come back in the MOUBER ride like the wind thanks to the silver song by Christopher Cross it reached number two on the U.S.

SPEAKER_03

I was tired of my lady. We'd been together too long. Like a worn-out recording of a favorite song. So while she lay there sleeping, I read the paper in bed. And in the personal columns, there was this letter I read.

SPEAKER_02

If you like being a color and getting caught in the rain, if you're not into yoga, if you have half a brain. In the dew, suffocate. I'm the love that you've loved for. Write to me and escape.

SPEAKER_03

I didn't think about my lady. I know that sounds kinda neat. But me and my old lady falling into the same old Don't TV. So I wrote to the paper, took out a personal act. And though I'm nobody's poet, I thought it wasn't half bad. Guess I like being a colonel and getting caught in the rain.

SPEAKER_02

I'm not marching to help. I am into champagne. I've got to reach you by tomorrow. And cut through all this red tape.

SPEAKER_03

At a bar, Polo Valle is where we'll plan our escape. So I waited with high hopes. And she walked in the place.

SPEAKER_02

I knew a smile in an instant. I knew the curve of her face. It was my own lovely lady. And she said, Oh, it's you. Then we laughed for a moment. And I said, I never knew that you like being a collider and getting caught in the rain. And the feel of the ocean. And the taste of champagne. If you like make in love with night in the dunes of the Cape, you're the lady I would fall. Come with me and escape. Yes, I like being a Kamada. Getting caught in the rain. I'm not much into health food. I am to champagne.

SPEAKER_04

Twins, twin spin.

SPEAKER_03

Over by the window. There's a bag of cigarettes. Not my friend, you understand. Sometimes the girl forgets.

SPEAKER_02

She forgets that I am. I know who left those smokers behind.

SPEAKER_03

She'll say, Oh, he's just a friend. And I'll say, Oh, I'm not blind to him.

SPEAKER_02

Him, him. What's she gonna do about him? She's gonna have to do without him. Or do without me. Me, me. No one gets to get him for free.

SPEAKER_03

It's me or it's him. Don't know what he looks like. Don't know who he is.

SPEAKER_02

Don't know why. She thought that I would say it's what it is. I don't want to own her. But I can't let her have it both ways. She leaves me or stay with him. Him, him. What's she gonna do about him? She's gonna have to do without him. Or do without me. Me, me, no one can think it all free. It's me or the family If she wants what she can have Just that how it once were It's goodbye to me and I've back to me and her Without him. What's she gonna do about him? She's gonna have to do it out now.
