One of Barry's best)" After reading your post I realized my mistake. I was listening to "It's The Way" when I was posting. I meant to chose "Heat of the Night" which to me should have been released (one of Barry's best, IMO). But I was actually thinking of including "The Way it Was". Nice song and vocals by Barry.

You could be right, but my tinnitus tells me it's Mo and Rob. I'm hearing a similar Mo vocal in "Love Never Dies" that I hear in "I Still Love You", also one of my favorites. (Does it help my true fan status that I had Love Never Dies translated into > Latin and had it tattooed on my lower back after Mo died?

Also where was Life Am I Wasting My Time released? I don't think it was released. Many of my choices are unreleased. Sal didn't list unreleased songs as a constraint, at least I don't think he did. If I may I would like to add Heart like Mine and ESP to the list for > consideration. "Heart Like Mine" has never been a favorite of mine. If I'm not mistaken, "ESP" was single, A side I think. For me, Robin's vocals saves "ESP". But it's pretty catchy, I guess. Date: Sun, 13 Apr 2014 11:17:08 -0700 From: Yasmine Ghulamali <yasdaz17@fastmail.fm> Subject: Re: could it really be David? Hi, wow, so nice to have you here, David! I have long admired your columns and indeed have them saved on my computer. I am glad to see you have retained your wonderful wit and sarcasm and amazing way with words.

I'm hearing a >similar Mo vocal in "Love Never Dies" that I hear in "I Still Love You", >also one of my favorites. Love Never Dies: The vocals that follow Robin's lead vocal, to my ears, are B&M blending together. I Still Love You: I think that's R&M on the second verse.

So completely depressing, it will immediately have you reaching for the prozac, no matter what your mental status (and David, yours is in doubt). However, "Wailing Wall" is a worthy contender.

Robin going off a little too much vocally. On the "Trafalgar" album I would have preferred "When Do I" and "Dearest" to be replaced with " If I Were The Sky" and "God's Good Grace" which I thought were better Robin songs.

Yasmine Nope. The most depressing is "Dearest". This song will have you with a sharp object in hand running for the last stall in a public restroom.

Robin going off a > little too much vocally. Not a problem for me. But I just replied to Yasmine regarding "Dearest" as being the most depressing song. Yes, that could and should have been replaced, IMO. Date: Sun, 13 Apr 2014 13:02:08 -0600 From: kittyLarue <marjlarue@gmail.com> Subject: Re: could it really be David?

If you've been around a while you are bound to recognise the footage. It covers their career up until the mid-80s. /Ronnie Date: Sun, 13 Apr 2014 16:41:50 -0400 (EDT) From: Deborah Compoccia <compoccia@aol.com> Subject: Sweet Embrace Ok, anyone ever here this one?
