FMM: High Flying Yvonne

With so many great singers in the 70s and 80s, choosing a Friday Magic Madness song from these decades is a task that's both difficult and easy.

Difficult because there are just so, so, so many of them - soloists, duos, groups, males and females - the combination makes the choices endless. 

Easy because you can always find an artist and song that made an impact and came out with a song that's part of your growing up memories.

Yvonne Elliman is one of those artists. She's best known for "If I Can't Have You" and her turn in "Jesus Christ Superstar." as Magdalene.

But today's FMM song is a lesser known duet from her and Norman Saleet. It was released in 1991, and was entitled "High Cost of Loving."


This song enjoyed a lot of air play that time, which is why it's one of those pervasive songs that got stuck in my mind and randomly replays in my head. 

Which is what happened this week. 

Which is why this is today's FMM.
