Not what I was thinking of, and to be more precise, both covered songs appear in the title. Edit: One of these songs covered is a huge 60s hit with a prominent horn melody, the other one is a single from an epic "American" rock album, but not by an American band.

Disco Inferno was in Saturday Night Fever, and defo charted a decade or so later. "Burn baybee burn" wid be popular choice by widowers I'd imagine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Toast 16,026 Posted December 12, 2018 Oscar-nominated song about a man facing death, never released as a single or on a studio album by the artist. Same artist/songwriter won an Oscar for another song which was a global hit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Here's mine {I'm aware Toast's is still unanswered}. I'm bending the rules a bit as the song is not a favourite , in fact I intensely dislike it. However, it was co-written by the co-lead in one of my favourite tv programmes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The song I'm thinking of isn't generally disliked as far as I know. Further clues, Ivor Novello award winning song, a hit in the 50s, singer is still alive, both writers are deceased.
