Best Songs From Artists That Went Solo

[Lynch]

So many to choose from. I guess I'll start with Jake's first artist listed, Phil Collins.

My favorite song from his solo career comes off of his 2nd solo album, Hello I Must Be Going



The song: I Don't Care Anymore. This song got a lot of airplay
when it was released, both on the radio and on MTV (yeah back
when it was about music and not idiots). But I don't think it's ever
been included on any of his greatest hits or best of releases. I've
never understood why. The song got as high as #3 on the charts
in the US. *shrug*

This is definitely my favorite Phil Collins solo track.

Peter Cetera - Living In the Limelight

 

[Jake T]

Here's another song by Pete Cetera from the movie Karate Kid II. It's kind of sappy, but it brings back memories.

Peter Cetera - The Glory Of Love

 

[Jake T]

Some good stuff on this album.

Paul Rodgers - Shadow of the Sun

 

[Big Ears]

Jorn Lande left Masterplan and made the fantastic Starfire album. I wanted to post his version of Journey's Edge of the Blade, which is better than the original, but it has been removed from YT:



I love Dag Stokke's keyboard playing on this album. Sadly, he died of cancer in 2011, aged 44.
