Songs On themusicaddict's Radar: December 7th, 2015: The Day Still Living In Infamy (Updated December 8th, 2015)

Hello,

Seventy-four years ago the Japanese launched a sneak attack on Pearl Harbor, which is in Hawaii. Up to that point the USA had done their best to stay out of World War 2. Two thousand, four hundred and three people were killed in those attacks. From Wikipedia.org:

"The following day, the United States declared war on Japan and entered World War II on the side of the Allies. In a speech to Congress, President Franklin Roosevelt called the bombing of Pearl Harbor "a date which will live in infamy."

As always, themusicaddict would like to thank all the veterans and their families for all their sacrifices made for the benefit of all. May your sacrifices never be forgotten!

 There are a few songs on this blog that I've had in previous Radar blogs before, those songs are still very much on my radar. Only 11 more days until "The Force Awakens", please forgive any Yodaisms.
If you remember Night Ranger , it's probably because of "Sister Christian". While that's an amazing song, Night Ranger is so much more than that just one song. Here's three of their other great songs:

1) "The Secret of My Success":


2) "Four In The Morning":


3) "Goodbye":


One more great Stone Temple Pilots song that I forgot in my Scott Weiland tribute blog 4) "Sex Type Thing":


I was listening to the lyrics of this song the other day on my walk, wow the lyrics hit way too close to home. 5) The Black Keys "Next Girl":

A beautiful face
And a wicked way
And I'm paying for her
Beautiful face every day
All that work
Over so much time if I think too hard
I might lose my mind

6) The Hag, Merle Haggard's "Mama Tried":


6) From both her "Fight Song" EP and her debut CD "Wildfire" (Out January 1st, 2016) this is 7) "Lone Ranger":


8) "Stand By You":


9) On tour soon with Journey, the Doobie Brothers will be, here's one of their best songs "Minute by Minute":


10) This is pretty cool:


11) Loverboy's "Steal The Thunder":



12) The Vamps "Windmills":



She's pretty funny. 13) Allison Weiss's "Back To Me":



Two covers by Evanescence's "Amy Lee":
14) "With or Without You":



15) "Going To California":



16) The Pointer Sisters' "Neutron Dance":



17) The Cars "Tonight She Comes":



18) Maxi Priest's "Close To You":
