!st LT. Nina M lands at #3 with her request for “Tight Rope” by Stevie Ray Vaughan. “Tightrope” is a classic blues-rock song by the legendary guitarist Stevie Ray Vaughan. Released in 1989 as the first single from his album “In Step,” the song showcases Vaughan’s incredible guitar skills and powerful vocals, as well as his ability to fuse blues, rock, and jazz into a unique and unforgettable sound.The song opens with a driving drumbeat and a funky guitar riff, followed by Vaughan’s unmistakable vocals. The lyrics are a warning about the dangers of living on the edge, both metaphorically and literally, as the title suggests: “I’m hanging from this tightrope, and I’m trying to keep my balance, but I’m trying to find my way.” The chorus is a powerful and anthemic call to action: “I’m on a tightrope, baby, nine miles high, strung out on a tightrope, screaming for life.” Great Job Nina! Salute!

#2. Plush – Left Behind                                                                                                                                                      Requested through – Facebook Request Line – Scotty B wdha                                                                                  Requested by – The Mander AKA Commander Chris M Rockturnaling and Working in South Plainfield , NJ                                                                                                                                                                                          2

The Mander lands in the two spot with his request for Plush. I went with their ne single Left Behind. ans of PLUSH will be thrilled to hear that the band hasn’t lost any of their edge or energy. “Left Behind” showcases a more heavier sound from the band. In a statement about the new single, Formica said, “We wanted to showcase our heavier side with ‘Left Behind,’ and I think we’ve accomplished that. This song is about the struggle to move on from something or someone you’ve lost, and I hope it resonates with our fans.” With its powerful lyrics, memorable riffs, and emotional performance, “Left Behind” is sure to do just that. “Left Behind” is a fantastic return for PLUSH. The band has proven once again that they have what it takes to create great rock music, and fans of the genre won’t want to miss out on this new release. Great Job Mander! Salute!
