My turn to pick the theme this month with Blobby, and I finally went with songs about a particular city. It could be any city, but the song should be in some way about that city.
Which sounds really lame now that I have time to sit and think about it. But in for a penny, in for a pound.
And another Friday, another late post.
I’m not sure if 1stWave on SiriusXM has ruined this song for me or not. I will tell you, I never realized this song was actually about chess, and the musical, until I watched the video while posting this. That changed the story a bit for me.
I give you “One Night in Bangkok” by Murray Head.
YHWH help us all.
Until next time...
Back in my early gym-bunny days of the late 80’s, this was the favorite tune of my favorite aerobics instructor. Brings back some spandex clad memories.
Spandex. *shudder* LOL
“Chess” (the original) was a musical I regret not seeing. I loved the music when it first came out.
It’s one I’m actually not familiar with. I’ll have to work on that.
Still a great song, along with I Know Him So Well.
I hadn’t heard that one before.

And it was written by the two blokes from ABBA.
