Silver - Wham Bam Shang-A-Lang


[1976]
One of the most bittersweet songs ever. Great strings and George Harrison-esque lead break, outdoing America at their own game! We've all been there and this just perfectly encapsulates the emotion of a relationship you know was fun but it was always gonna end so just be glad that it ever happened at all. A song you couldn't write if you weren't ever fully living life in the moment. Vivaciously upbeat yet actually kinda devastating. 

These dudes were one hit wonders reaching the top 20 in both the US and Canadia but just missing the top 40 here down under.
