Day 16: A song that's a classic favourite

"Talk of the Town" - (1980)

TBH I'm not quite sure why this song has stuck with me so closely over the years. Did I hear it at an impressionably young age? Was is because it was on the soundtrack to that evocative, coming-of-age cult film Times Square? Does it have something to do with that addictive hook (Am7 > B7) and 's singular vocals? Yes to all of it. Anyway it's a classic I don't ever tire of.

Can remember a time when just about every college party I went to threw this EP on at some point. It was a good thing!

Chrissie Hynde from The Pretenders has written many great ballads over the years, I went through The Pretenders discography and picked my favorite 25(!) that she's either written on her own or co-written and put them in Apple Music (below) and Spotify (in the reply) playlists music.apple.com/us/playlist/ch
