Needing

Music, Nostalgia, Songs

This week’s theme NEEDING comprises songs that focus on the need for love or needing someone. The list includes Dolly Parton , Sarah Vaughn and Anne Murray presenting gentle ballads and  Johnny Cougar revving it up looking for a lover. In contrast, the Mark Holden‘s song ‘ Never Gonna Fall In Love Again’ suggests he doesn’t need a new love after a painful separation.

Two regular listeners share their thoughts on being needed.  ‘Everybody needs help at some time in their life and as the saying goes–a friend in need is a friend indeed’, Simon from St Kilda East and ‘It doesn’t matter who you are or where you are, we all need someone at sometime’, Lou from Hervey Bay
