Walkin' After Midnight
"Walkin' After Midnight" is a song written by Alan Block and Don Hecht and recorded by American country music artist Patsy Cline. The song was originally given to pop singer Kay Starr; however, her label rejected it. The song was left unused until Hecht rediscovered it when writing for Four Star Records. Originally Cline was not fond of "Walkin' After Midnight", but after making a compromise with her label she recorded it. However, the first released recording was by Lynn Howard with The Accents, released August 1956. In January 1957, Cline performed the song on an episode of the CBS television program ''Arthur Godfrey's Talent Scouts''. It garnered a strong response from viewers and was therefore rush-released as a single on February 11, 1957. "Walkin' After Midnight" became Cline's first major hit single, reaching No. 2 on the ''Billboard'' country music chart and No. 12 on its pop chart.

Somebody (Bryan Adams Song)
"Somebody" is a rock song written by Bryan Adams and Jim Vallance for Adams fourth studio album '' Reckless'' (1984). It was the second single released from the album ''Reckless''. The song topped the ''Billboard'' Top Rock Tracks chart and peaked at number 11 on the ''Billboard'' Hot 100. Critical reception Stewart Mason from Allmusic said "Following the Big Rawk Anthem (' Run to You') and the Sensitive Power Ballad ('Heaven'), 'Somebody' covers the third base as a straight-ahead singalong pop song with a killer chorus. A gift to an entire generation of cover bands working the bar circuit, 'Somebody' has a chorus so simple and catchy that you can actually sing along to it even if you've never actually heard the song before, and Adams and his indispensable musical partner, Jim Vallance, helpfully point out the feasibility of said activity by incorporating a large, somewhat ragged group of backing vocalists for the lengthy vamp of a fadeout. Rather like 'Run to You,' 'Somebody' is j ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
