Story by: Gail NoblesKeyboardist: Gail NoblesPhoto: Wikipedia Public DomainHey there, music lovers! Let's talk about a fantastic track called "Nobody Told Me" by the legendary John Lennon. This hit had quite a journey, climbing its way to the top of the charts. In January 1984, it made a splash in the UK, peaking at number 6, and in the US, it hit number 5 on the Billboard Hot 100. It was Lennon's last brand-new single to break into the top 10 before he left us, and that makes it extra special!The song features some memorable lines: "Nobody told me there'd be days like these / Strange days indeed / Most peculiar, mama." These words twist the old saying, "My mama told me there'd be days like this," which is famously sung by The Shirelles in "Mama Said." While the Shirelles gave us a sense of warning about life's ups and downs, Lennon flips it around, expressing surprise at how unpredictable life can be.So, if you haven't given "Nobody Told Me" a listen, do yourself a favor and check it out. It's a catchy, thought-provoking tune that reminds us of the surprises life throws our way, all delivered in Lennon's unmistakable style.I’m Gail Nobles. Thank you for listening to Sound Flave!Music and Melody
