#324 OUT HERE ON MY OWN Irene Cara
The big ballad from the film musical 'Fame' was "Out Here On My Own", performed by cast member Irene Cara. Its lyrics were written by Lesley Gore, who had enjoyed her own success with the singles "It's My Party" and "You Don't Own Me" during the 1960s. Her brother Michael Gore composed the bulk of the music from the motion picture, including "Out Here...". The track was recorded in New York City. Selected in 1980 as the follow-up to the film's title song, "Out Here..." peaked at #19 in America and 58 in Britain. It reached #41 in Australia. 

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.
