It's been a few years since we premiered our mewsic feature "Retro Country Rewind," a look back at favorite songs that hit #1 during that month from 30, 35, 40 plus years ago. In this new year we'll be delving into #1 hits from 1972, 1977, 1982, and so on. Let's take a look at September for this freebie week in the Mewsic Moves Me blog hop...
55 Years Ago - 1967, My Elusive Dreams, Tammy Wynette & David Houston
One of my all-time favorite country songs, with a heartbreaking twist at the end...
50 Years Ago - 1972, I Can't Stop Loving You, Conway Twitty
Conway put his own unique spin on this country classic...
45 Years Ago - 1977, I've Already Loved You In My Mind, Conway Twitty
Conway's inspiration for writing this song was President Jimmy Carter's infamous Playboy interview in which he admitted to lusting in his heart...
40 Years Ago - 1982, What's Forever For, Michael Martin Murphey
35 Years Ago - 1987, She's Too Good To Be True, Exile
I only knew the first Conway Twitty song (I Can't Stop Loving You). My favorite was "My Elusive Dream". What an ending! Alana ramblinwitham.blogspot.com
Your last two artists don't make me think of country, maybe because mentally I didn't make that connection when these songs came out reminding more of soft rock music than anything else. Thanks for joining the 4M dance party, my furriend! 😽
Mudpie, you and your mommy take Lynn down memory lane. All that music was great and wish it was like that today. Precious
