Since yesterday, a tune from 1978 has been on my mind, for unknown reasons. Allan Clarke, a former lead singer of The Hollies, recorded a tune I hadn't thought of in years, "(I Will Be Your) Shadow In The Street." Listening to it now, it strikes me as a somewhat friendlier way of conveying the "You won't forget me" sentiments found in the Stevie Nicks-penned Fleetwod Mac tune, "Silver Springs" or the surveillance aspects of The Police's "Every Breath You Take." Conceivably, it could work as background music for a commercial about drones. I think it would also segue with Lee Ritneour and Eric Tagg's "It It You?"
It's odd how a song that you haven't heard in years can suddenly click with you on multiple levels.
