Five Star Songs #5

Today's tune is All Apologies,

done live by Nirvana on MTV Unplugged in '93.

When they were good, they were very, very good.

Five Star Songs #4

Today's song will definitely be the first of many in this feature from this artist.

My Tennessee Mountain Home by Dolly Parton

Not only is she a great singer, but she is an amazing songwriter, as well.

Five Star Songs #3

Here is another song I like, but not the traditional version.

The Rainbow Connection, usually sung by Kermit the Frog,

done here by the very talented Jason Mraz:

Simple and fun.

Five Star Songs #2

John Mellencamp has been a favorite musician of mine since the 80s.

I like a lot of his stuff, but Cherry Bomb, from 1987, is my favorite.

Always brings me back to '87 when I hear it.

Five Star Songs #1

Trying to get things moving here once again, so here is a new feature:

Five Star Songs

Simply, now and then I will feature songs I really love.

To kick things off, here is "Somewhere Over the Rainbow/What a Wonderful World"

by Israel "IZ" Ka'ano'i Kamakawiwo'ole, from 1993.

Just beautiful.
