February Love Song #27

FEBRUARY LOVE SONG #27

The Penguins "Earth Angel"





I'm taking you all the way back to the 1950s today. Of course, I think you'll more than likely recognize this song, even if you know it by one the remakes of it. This is the original "Earth Angel," recorded in 1954. It has that classic 1950s musical style, and could easily be slow danced to by couples. According to Genius, this was the B-side of another song, but DJs mistook it is the A-side, and so goes the popularity of "Earth Angel." It allowed The Penguins to get a major deal with Mercury Records, although they ended up being a one hit wonder. In my opinion, sometimes you just need a day to sit back and listen to some older songs like this. It can really be enjoyable, and I'm hoping you enjoy it today.
