Here we are--that ever-pesky letter X! Almost every year I have to do this one by finding something that has an X in it somewhere, often not at the beginning.
This was the best I could find for this letter. Some will argue whether this can be considered a novelty song. It's also far from one of my favorites, but am familiar with it. George Strait mania was rampant in the 1980s. I've heard this and other Strait songs performed at the local karaoke bar (at least during some of the last times I went). I live in a rodeo county, after all. "All My Exes..." is what is called a list song.
The song was released in 1987 on Strait's album Ocean Front Property and was nominated for Best Male Country Vocal Performance at the Grammy Awards in 1988.
Here is a remake from a female perspective.
And by Patrick Star from SpongeBob. Now this comes a little close to a novelty record, in my opinion. (The video I'd originally included for this one was later marked private, so I posted a different one, just days before posting day).
Good choice!
ReplyDeleteWell done! X is a hard letter.
ReplyDeleteI think you made a good choice for X.
ReplyDeleteOcean Front Property in Arizona - a family favorite when it came out.
ReplyDeleteWell-done X post - I've not heard that one before.
ReplyDeleteYeah, X is tricky. Whatever you have to do is cool. As I say, everyone cheats on X day.
ReplyDeleteI didn't know this one. But I bet X is very tricky. No matter what you pick for a topic.
ReplyDeleteGreat choice for X
