How embarrassing. I just checked, and David is the only solo male. Though Elvis and Barry have been in and out, and I think a couple of others too.
There is another track that I recently discovered that is definitely going to go in there, it's a track called
The Dance by Garth Brooks. I'm starting to wonder if I'm doomed not to own it on CD single. The first one I ordered didn't arrive and the second time around I was sent the wrong disc. So he's in among all my Martina and Tina tracks in spirit. He has a nice voice, and seems an all-round nice guy too.
Tenuous link: Martina has sung
The Dance live. I'd love to track down her version too.
I think it's struck a chord with me firstly because it's a fantastic song and secondly because it's such an unexpected surprise to find Diana singing something so Country.
It's very well done.
Both gorgeous. I love how prominent Diana's voice is in all three of these tracks. Ballads really give her beautiful voice the space to shine.
I think it's one of the most fabulous album covers ever.
I can't argue with that.
It reminds me of these:
I've set it aside as a possible avatar at some point.
It would be perfect for an avatar. It's so striking and iconic.
While it's not anywhere near as amazing as the cover for Ross, I really like the cover for Surrender too.
She's so beautiful.
That cover is so contemporary in some ways (I could easily imagine a Beyonce album with this cover) and yet so of its time because of the makeup style.
Which albums did you order?
Well, I started with her Christmas album which is en route from the States:
I loved her voice so much in the samples I listened to, I then went on to order this compilation:
I'm planning to get a second compilation, which has a couple of alternative/remixed versions and a cracking rendition of
Over The Rainbow:
And while looking, I see that she has an "alternative" hits album coming out, made up of her mostly unreleased tracks, so that's also on my radar:
I probably could just bite the bullet and start getting her studio albums, but let's see how I go with the compilations and Christmas album.
