Hello,
Great songwriters who mainly just write songs don’t get a lot of recognition. On the death of Cynthia Weil, at 82, let’s give her some recognition. She wrote songs with others, but most of the songs she wrote was with husband Barry Mann.
Also tomorrow night I’ll be seeing Duran Duran, Nile Rodgers with Chic and Bastille in concert so obviously those three are also on my mind. I’ll also be going to see Lost 80s tour and Royksopp later this year, thus they are also on my mind.
Also who knows what random songs will also be on my mind. Let’s start off with the best songs written by Cynthia Weil- with Barry Mann and others. They wrote many incredible songs.
