I'm Tanya Mosley.
I keep forgetting we're not in love anymore I keep forgetting things will never be the same again I keep forgetting how you made that so clear.
I keep forgetting every time you near, every time I see your smile, hear your hello singing you can only stay awhile how dare I know that it's hard for you to say the things we both know are true.
When this single I keep forgetting by Michael McDonald came out in 1982, it rose to the top of the pop, r and b and adult contemporary Billboard charts.
The song is from McDonald's first solo album, if that's what it takes, and was actually inspired by a 1962 song with the same name by Chuck Jackson.
As we learn in a new memoir, Michael McDonald's entire career has been somewhat of a musical nod to both the past and the future, with many of his biggest hits being interpretations or remakes by soul artists of the past.
In turn, McDonald's music has unlocked nostalgia for new generations of fans.
Many of his songs have been sampled by hip hop artists like Warren G and Nate Doggs regulate and the electronic group Maloco's interpolation familiar feeling.
McDonald's new memoir, co written by comedian Paul Reiser, chronicles McDonald's life and career in music, which goes all the way back to his childhood, tagging along with his father to saloons in St.
Louis, where his dad would sometimes perform as a high school dropout.
MacDonald writes about his move from the midwest to Los Angeles, spending his early years as a session musician and becoming a member of two iconic rock bands, Steely Dan and the Doobie Brothers, before embarking on a decades long solo career.
The name of his memoir is titled what a fool believes, named after the Doobie Brothers 1979 Grammy winning song, Michael McDonald.
