CAFFE` LATTE` 
TOP 1500 CHOICE TRACKS {EXPANDED EDITION}

#1496 I FEEL THE EARTH MOVE Carole King
"I Feel The Earth Move" was 1 of the many strong tracks featured on the mega-successful 'Tapestry' album from its composer Carole King in 1971.

#1497 WE DON'T TALK ANYMORE Cliff Richard
Cliff Richard dropped 1 of his best singles ever in 1979: "We Don't Talk Anymore", written by Alan Tarney and produced by Bruce Welch. It enjoyed a month atop the UK charts.

#1498 AND I AM TELLING YOU I'M NOT GOING Jennifer Hudson
Oscar winner Jennifer Hudson wowed with her mighty rendition of the Jennifer Holliday classic written by Tom Eyen and Henry Krieger, "And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going" from the 2006 film version of 'Dreamgirls'.

#1499 I DO, I DO, I DO, I DO, I DO Abba
From the pens of Born Ulvaeus, Stig Andersson and Benny Anderson came the 1st of ABBA's 6 #1 singles in Australia. Lifted off 1975's fabulous 'ABBA' album.

#1500 YOU DON'T BRING ME FLOWERS Barbra Streisand & Neil Diamond
Neil Diamond co-wrote "You Don't Bring Me Flowers" with Alan & Marilyn Bergman. He recorded a solo version, as did Barbra Streisand. A clever DJ created a "duet" with the 2 tracks. The 4 Seasons' Bob Gaudio produced the genuine duet between the 2 vocalists, a US #1 in 1978.

The list is a ranking 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.This expanded section now includes songs from the last few years. I hope you find some new tracks to love, or re-discover some past favourites.
This marks the end of the downward rankings for the 1500 Choice Tracks. The upward ranking continues daily. Beginning tomorrow... a new daily countdown...
