Songs That Ask Questions

There are many songs which ask questions. This episode starts with LGBTIQ+, Australian-American singer Lana Cantrell with her cover of The Young Rascal’s hit How Can I Be Sure? Included are the undisputed talents of the songwriters, Robin and Barry Gibb, with their poignant ballad How Can You Mend A Broken Heart? Fifties teen idol Frankie Avalon simply asks Why? And influential singer and producer Clyde McPhatter asks all the questions in his hit A Lover’s Question. Colin Hay leads Aussie group Men At Work with their international best seller Who Can It be Now? While Dame Shirley Bassey belts out one of her many ‘anguish’ ballads with What Now My Love?
