Song of the Day: 'Lookin' for Love' by Johnny Lee


Westville, my go-to neighborhood restaurant, had a mix of country-crossover hits from yesteryear on the other day and it reminded me how much I liked this classic from "Urban Cowboy." Had no idea the song had been kicked around and demoed by 20 artists who "hated" it, only to be included on the film soundtrack because John Travolta was a fan. They also played Dolly Parton's "Jolene" and Lynn Anderson's "(I Never Promised You a) Rose Garden," two of my other favorites from back in the day!
