Day 24- A cover song

I have really enjoyed some of the songs released over the recent years, especially those of Boyzone and Westlife, who did some great covers of songs of the 60's and 70's.

I ended up choosing a song which I just loved when it was first released, by The Osmonds (sorry, but I was a fan at the time ... hangs head in shame!), Love Me For A Reason ... It was re-recorded by Boyzone, and I have included both versions for you.

Boyzone -

The Osmonds -

My favourite of the songs that James sings as a cover is "Picture in a Frame" (I have already picked that one, but he only has a few to pick from!

Day 27- A song you make fun of
Day 28- A song that reminds you of your boyfriend/girlfriend (if you don’t have one, make one up :])
Day 29- A song currently stuck in your head
Day 30- A song that you haven’t listened to in awhile

I love both versions of this song - and have both of them on CD.

LOL - I love the song - and it brings back good memories of teen life!

I only remember the boyzone version but it's a lovely song.

AS for James's Picture in a frame, that to is a lovely song.

I was a teen when The Osmonds were around ... but it was corny to be a fan!

Picture in a Frame is a James song I had already chosen - but it is lovel.
