Sam Cooke - Cupid
The response was so great from my first Sam post, that I decided to post another. Cupid contains one of the most recognizable melodies known in music. The song is a simple yet heartfelt plea for love. Songs like this do not get written anymore, and that’s a shame.
If you could have formed your musical identity in any other time, when would it have been? I have always said mid to late 60s, but recently I’ve pushed it to the late 1960s - early 1970s. Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath replace Nirvana and Pearl Jam. Hot Damn.
