      While I would agree there are many less talented performers since autotune I think there is still some fantastic music always being created. I think the bigger issue for us older folks that remember all the great songs of the 60s, 70s, and 80s simply have a harder time finding something new that stands out in that pack.

    You got it right when you said people are recommending the best. Most of the songs you review got a LOT of radio play, so of course they would be highly rated. You don't have to worry about giving out a lot of A's A+'s or even S's. Give the songs what they deserve, and don't be concerned about the ratios.

    EXACTLY
    you are only ever going to get recommendations from us for songs that are A-tier thru S-tier
    which is why you guys are giving so many A's and A+'s

    I really do love this guy's voice. One of their best jams is 'It Don't Matter to Me", IMO - the end in particular is just so kickass.

    One must also consider the time period. All music and talent. No marketing, no lip syncing, no autotune. 100 % .Authenticity

    Their first big hit and it was huge back then. I was a kid, but I remember it playing all the time. I really enjoy Bread. They were pretty mellow, but still well crafted songs with great production and lyrics.

    I remember hearing this song on the car radio when my family went on a road trip in the summer of 1970. What a great song.

    If you are searching for suitable mood music to play when trying to "set the ambience", try Samba Pa Ti by Carlos Santana.

    Beautiful song that is reminiscent of that early 70’s mellow rock. Bread is the template of this genre.

    Alex: “We have given out so many A’s and A+’s” - understatement of the year. If we could only have more sleepy songs on this channel that would be sooooo cool. We would never want to mix in any bangers like: Saturday Night Special - Lynyrd Skynyrd. More sleepy songs that are great elevator music, more average bands like Bread. Let’s gooooooooooooo

    There's a reason that most of the songs you listen to have made it into the top 10 up to and including #1 on the charts in the past. It's because they have a catchy hook or really great instrumentation or smooth, flawless vocals, etc. These songs have become beloved over the decades and have lasted for decades because they are so good. And that's why you give so many A and A+ scores (kind of what you said). I'm sure Bread has put out songs during their time that didn't quite make it up there to the top and that's okay. Most artists and bands have experienced this (just listen to classic American Top 40 shows and you'll see what I mean).

    I listened to Bread so much back in their heyday. One of my most favorite songs of theirs is actually sung by their other "high voice" singer, Jimmy Griffin, which is "Look What You've Done". Jimmy got shoved to the side when the music label chose David Gates to be the face and voice of Bread.

    S. The number of songs that are at the pinnacle of cheesiness that accomplish what this recording accomplishes is very, very small.
    Almost impossible to be this sweet and be taken seriously at all. It mainly stands on the vocal. The vocal approach takes it to S tier.

    I bought this song in the summer of 1970. Check out it's B-side "Why do you keep me waiting" - more of a rocker, - snappy, poppy, somewhat like John Lennon and Elton John's "Whatever gets you through the night."
    But the most underrated Bread song is "Been too long on the road." This is a song you could make a TV movie of the week out of. Back in the day this is the kind of song you'd hear on Friday night at 7 p.m. on the radio and then call the record shop to see how late it's open because you just HAD to buy it. It's also not a gentle ballad in the style of most of their songs, so the style will surprise you.

    This song is very popular for wedding reception slow dances.

    Speaking of mellow dances try Morning Dance by Spyro Gyra. It has a Sax solo, and I believe Xylophone solo and a Marinba solo. It's very reminiscent of Chuck Mangione's Feel So Good and one of my all-time favorites!

    As talked about in “70’s Weekly Countdown with Mark and Pete”, David Gates’ Mom was interviewed and was quoted as saying she was really proud of her son’s success, but disappointed that he did a song called “Naked With You”.

    Don't move on from Bread without checking out 'If' and 'Diary'. Quintessential.

    It was these guys and The Carpenters that pretty much the term "soft rock" was invented. Perhaps my favorite song by them along with "If".
