The Korgis – Everybody’s Got To Learn Sometime

Dumb Waiters was The Korgis second album and one of the signature releases of 1980 in the UK, ushering in the New Romantic era. This was the peak of The Korgis success.

Change your heart, look around you , Change your heart, it will astound you, I need your loving like the sunshine , And everybody’s got to learn sometime

Warren has said the simple lyrics concealed big ideas. “At the time, I was very into Buddhist philosophy. He had his very individual philosophy, but it was basically a Buddhist approach to life.. the This thing about changing fundamentally the way we look at life, the way we look at other people. Change your heart and look at the world with completely fresh eyes, not with the eyes of our social conditioning. Break away from your social conditioning and look at the world as if you were looking at it for the first time without any preconceptions. All that kind of stuff. As simply as possible, I made that the lyric of the song.”

Diana Krall & Michael Bublé – ALONE AGAIN (NATURALLY)

Alone Again (Naturally)” is a song by Irish singer-songwriter Gilbert O’Sullivan. Recorded in 1971, it became a worldwide hit. The song did not originally appear on his 1972 studio album Back to Front but has been included in reissues (often replacing “Clair”). The single spent six non-consecutive weeks at number one on Billboard’s Hot 100 between late July and early September 1972 in America. It ranked number two in the year-end chart and sold over two million copies. Diana Krall released a duet version with Michael Bublé on her 2015 album Wallflower.
