Fool

Music, Nostalgia, Songs

Listening to this week’s collection of songs it seems that a common thread is singers feeling sorry for themselves. The songs reflect disappointment after being dumped, jilted or ignored. Hence everyone feels like a fool. There is a star studded line up this week: Elvis Presley (A Fool Such As I), Ricky Nelson (Poor Little Fool), Aretha Franklin (Chain Of Fools), Andy Williams (A Fool Never Learns) and popular 50s and 60s singer, Connie Francis (Everybody’s Somebody’s Fool). Australia is represented by the brilliant Lana Cantrell (The Fool On The Hill), Ray Brown & The Whispers (Fool Fool Fool) and ex pat, Rick Springfield (What Kind Of Fool Am I?)
