1971 Without you... Harry Nilsson

Here's my submission for this round. This one almost killed me..lol

Harry Nilsson ~ Without You ~

http://www.singsnap.com/snap/watchandlisten/play/c0e3f178

Harry Nilsson, at the time best known for his hit "Everybody's Talkin'" and for composing such hits as Three Dog Night's "One", heard Badfinger's recording of "Without You" at a party, and took it to be a Beatles song.[1] After realizing it was not, he decided to cover the song for his album Nilsson Schmilsson in 1971; it stayed at number-one on the U.S. pop chart for four weeks, from February 13 to March 11, 1972. The song also spent five weeks atop the U.S. adult contemporary chart. In the U.K., the song spent five weeks at number one on the British pop chart, beginning on March 11, and sold almost 800,000 copies. [2] The single was produced by Richard Perry, who later explained, "It was a different record for its time. It was a big ballad with a heavy backbeat, and although many artists have cut songs like it since, no one was doing it then." [3] Gary Wright, then known as a member of the British group Spooky Tooth, and later a successful solo artist in his own right, played piano on the recording. [3]

While Nilsson rarely performed live, he did perform the song with Ringo Starr and his All-Starr Band at Caesar's Palace in Las Vegas in September of 1992 [4], and also performed the song with the house band, Liverpool, at various Beatlefest fan conventions.

"Don't Give Up On Us" is a song by David Soul.

Riding high on the success of playing in the hit TV show Starsky and Hutch , Soul returned to one of his early career choices as a singer. His debut, the Tony Macaulay written and produced "Don't Give Up on Us" was a worldwide smash, spending four weeks at #1 on the UK Singles Chart in January 1977 and a single week at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in April 1977. In addition, the song spent one week at #1 on the U.S. adult contemporary chart.

"Don't Give Up on Us" was rated #93 in VH1's 100 Greatest One-hit Wonders. Soul recorded a new version of the song in 2004, allegedly after being embarrassed when hearing it by chance in an elevator as sung by Owen Wilson in the film version of Starsky and Hutch .

Angel from Montgomery is a song written by John Prine, originally appearing on his self-titled 1971 album John Prine. It has been covered notably by Bonnie Raitt, Tanya Tucker, Dave Matthews Band, Ben Harper, Paul Baribeau, Susan Tedeschi and Jill Johnson in 2007.

A couple of tidbits about Alone again naturally. The song spent six weeks at No. 1 in 1972 and was ranked #5 by Casey Kasem's 70's top 40 for the decade. I like the song but No. 5 overall really? The song was not autobiographical in nature but was created purely in Gilbert O'Sullivans imagination. Eric
