TOP 1200 CHOICE TRACKS
#403 WHILE YOU SEE A CHANCE Steve Winwood
Steve Winwood's 'Arc of a Diver' album opens with "While You See A Chance". Co-written by the music veteran with Will Jennings, the song has a gospel and optimistic tone. Winwood's blue-eyed soul vocals and his prowess on keyboards produce a highlight of the 1980s.
The single may have only climbed to #47 in the UK, but "While You..." reached the Top 10 in the US and Canada. The single kick-started Winwood's most successful musical phase: he was now a fully fledged pop star. The hits continued throughout the decade: "Valerie", US #1 "Higher Love", "The Finer Things", "Back in the High Life Again" and "Roll With It". Winwood still tours and records to this day.
This
is a list made up of the songs I enjoy the most, ranked in order of preference: the higher we go, the more I
cherish them. Some were released as singles, others as album tracks.
Some are obscure; others were worldwide hits or have
universal appeal.
They aren't always the most famous or popular, but simply a personal
choice. I have excluded songs from the last few years in order to get a
better idea of a song's lasting impression. I hope you find some new tracks to love, or re-discover some past favourites.
