Easy Listening Music Is Great

By Freida Michael


There are many people within this world who like to hear a nice quiet tune while they are driving home from work or other places. Easy listening music has been around for quite a few years and many singers like to become involved in this type of entertainment. Unfortunately there are many young people around who do not fully appreciate these tunes since they prefer to listen to rap lyrics which are very annoying and vulgar all at the same time.

Sheena Easton is one talented Scottish singer who came onto the scene many years ago when she sang "Morning Train." This was a hit single which combined pop and jazz and people everywhere loved to listen to this particular tune while going to their job. She was also asked to perform the theme song for a James Bond movie called "For Your Eyes Only."

Movie producers also used this lucky lady within some of their Hollywood productions over the years and her fans really liked this. Some of her older albums have become collector's items and they are very hard to find throughout the United States.

Many people do not realize that this singer is only five feet tall but she has a voice which can be heard everywhere. "I Wouldn't Beg For Water" was another one of her songs that was quite similar to a soft gospel recording. It was recorded on one of her later albums which sold around the United States and other places.

There is one great singer called Barry Manilow who has been living within the United States for most of his life. Mr. Manilow is a great talented person who has been compared to Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin. "Mandy" was one of his biggest hit songs which sold millions of copies. In time Mr. Manilow would sing a great tune called "I Made It Through The Rain" and this was also a big hit.

As his career started to slow down Barry found himself recording songs with other entertainers who had also been around for quite a long time. This went on for a short period of time before Barry changed his tune completely and started singing songs that were fast paced and completely out of his range. Unfortunately Mr. Manilow is now dealing with money issues that have really ruined his career.

A man named Kenny Rogers has been around for years and he really knows how to entertain all of his female and male fans. Many women loved his song "Lady" since it was such a sensitive ballad which was very original and creative on all levels. Kenny took a close look at married life when he wrote and song his tune named "Through The Years."

Everyone knows that Barbra Streisand is one woman who really knows how to carry a fine tune once she makes up her mind. During the 80's Barbra recorded a tune called "Left In The Dark" which was very emotional since it dealt with a woman who was dealing with a cheating spouse.
