edna Posted July 2, 2015 Report Share Posted July 2, 2015 "Every Morning"Sugar Ray Written by Sugar Ray and David Kahne. A track from his 1999 album, "14.59".The single was released as the first single, reaching #1 on Billboard Hot Rock Modern chart, made # 1 in Canada singles chart and #3 on Billboard Hot 100 by 1999.It aldo made # 2 in the UK.Wikipedia says: "The chorus of the song samples "Suavecito" by the Chicano music group Malo, as well as High Masekela' s 1968 hit "Grazing in the Grass". Mark McGrath explained to MTV News, "We referenced 'Suavecito' because growing up in California, you know, that was just like the low rider anthem. Any car show or swap meet you'd ever go by, you'd always hear that [song] and that just stuck in your mind." He added, "We actually came up with that part, and it was very similar to Malo's part. We were sort of imitating it, and then we said, 'Let's just leave it, we're gonna change it later.' It really makes the song – we think – so we just left it."

The song's release coincided with the end of WWII in Europe and became the unofficial homecoming theme for many veterans. The recording was released ...with the flip side "Twilight Time".... reached the Billboard charts on March 29, 1945 and lasted 23 weeks on the chart, peaking at #1The song was recorded by Ella Fitzgerald with Eddie Heywood and his Orchestra in 1947, it was later released on her album "Ella and Her Fellas".

A track of their 1983 album, "Fastway".Mickey Feat, a session musician, played bass, as Pete Way has already left the band. This information isn't credited on the album notes. "I'll Never Let You Go"Steelheart Written by Michael Matijevic. A track of their 1990 album, "Steelheart".Allmusic says: "Possessing metal pipes like few before him, the leonine Steelheart yelper Michael Matijevic scarred the airwaves forever when he hammered the simply unmatchable chorus of the hairball "I'll Never Let You Go." Ludicrous and sublime, the sound was roughly akin to Whitney Houston hitting the hot spot in "I Will Always Love You." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
