Nothing and Everything

Music, Nostalgia, Songs

‘Nothing’ and ‘Everything’ are the opposite elements present in this week’s theme. To me the highlight is the sweet, poignant song from Bread (Everything I Own) sung and written by David Gates as a tribute to his late father. There are a couple of rarely played singers such as Gilbert O’Sullivan (Nothing Rhymed) and Ral Donner (She’s Everything). A special mention too for that fabulous ‘Lil Miss Dynamite’, Brenda Lee (Sweet Nothin’s). There is a strong Aussie flavour this week featuring Marcie & The Cookies (All Or Nothing), Pat Carroll (All Kinds Of Everything), Normie Rowe (I Who Have Nothing) and Peter Allen ( Everything Old Is New Again).
