My Top Ten Songs by Jon Fratelli
10. Sometimes You Just Can’t Win9. Begging Bowls Blues8. Milk and Money7. Creeping up the Backstairs6. Flathead5. Henrietta4. Whistle For the Choir3. Babydoll2. Chelsea Dagger
My #1 favorite song by this artist is…
1. For the GirlThis is my favorite song by him because Jon used C Major, which is a really over used key, yet he made the song sound very original. It’s very fast, energetic, and positive, when the lyrics are actually really sad. It’s just a really creative song.
(Verse)“Well she said I know but I just cant tellEverything you've just been sayingLucy was there as well in the darkThe kids in the band were playing”
(Chorus)“And all the while the girls sang‘La la la la’ she sangKicking's for my sweetheartBruises that I just don't missAnd she said ‘I can't love you anymore than this!’”
