#30DaySongChallenge - Day 23
May. 18th, 2020 10:47 amDay 23: A song you love that's an opening track on an album
We Are the Lucky Ones by The Flys
So many I coulda gone with, since so many bands are smart enough to start strong and open with a great track. A major contender here was Delivering the Goods by Judas Priest, a song that gives me chills it's so well done. But once again I opt to give a bit more exposure to the more obscure, and I never met anyone else who ever heard of British band The Flys. We Are the Lucky Ones was the opening track on the North American release of their eponymous debut album (and only album over here, at least that I ever saw). There were lots of good songs later in the album as well, but nothing else I ever heard from them approached the towering achievement of this one.
