Song #422: "Lotta Love"--Nicolette Larson (1978)

It was a decision between her biggest hit, and her follow-up single from 1979, "Rhumba Girl", but it was Lotta Love, with its powerful instrumentation and classic vocals from a woman we lost way, way too soon back in 1997 that grabs a spot in our countdown.

This song was all over the radio in the heart of my sixth grade year, and later, deservedly, grabbed a spot in rotations on classic hits radio stations across the nation. Listening just transports me back to my bedroom in Beaverdam, and Mr. Taylor's classroom in the old brick building that also served as the "cafetorium" at Beaverdam Elementary. Fun times!
