The Australian singer-songwriter Delta Goodrum made her mark with Lost Without You, but the version I want to focus on today is from Darren Hayes. Delta was the Pop Diva of Australian music in the early 2000’s…then she was diagnosed…

Lost in the Dream (2014) – The War on Drugs
Lost in the Dream is the 5th song to appear here from the American band The War on Drugs. This song was the first which hooked me and is the title track from their third studio album released in 2014.…
Losing Your Way in the Rain (1979) – Mike Batt (Ft. Colin Blunstone)
I was writing just a few days ago the post about Christina Perri’s Bluebird and how underrated she is as a singer – songwriter. I had the same battle in the 80’s about Dylan. Now we come to the undisputed…
Lord, I Hope This Day is Good (1981) – Don Williams
Lord, I Hope This Day is Good is the second song to appear here in the space of a month from my favourite classic-country music artist Don Williams. His previous entry Listen to the Radio was the first song that…
Loose Change (1998) – Bruce Springsteen
To me today’s featured song Loose Change will always be the sister song to another Bruce song from the same record called Happy. These two songs are an awesome couplet from Bruce’s collection that I treasure. I could listen to…

Always on My Mind (1987) – Pet Shop Boys
I know some musical purists are going to have a bee in their bonnet over my ‘version selection’ of this classic American ballad, but I always liked what The Pet Shop Boys did here with the pronounced synth-pop sound of…
Long Train Runnin’ (1973) – the Doobie Brothers
When I was in my late teens, I had this fascination taking photos of anything relating to trains, mostly scenic images of train-tracks running off somewhere. Like the one I took inset at Timbertown, a popular tourist attraction at Wauchope…
Long and Wasted Years (2012) – Bob Dylan
Long and Wasted Years is the first song to appear here from Bob Dylan’s 2012 album Tempest. It is an introspective monologue about someones’ longing for a lost love, juxtaposed with a sense of pride that they ‘wouldn’t do anything…
Lonesome Day (2002) – Bruce Springsteen
After the double album release Human Touch and Lucky Town (1992), I found sprinkles of Bruce magic released on the Tracks record which contained mostly never-before-released songs recorded during the sessions for his many albums. Songs like Happy which has…
