Top Ten Songs by Taylor Hicks

Are you wondering, how could I come up with Top Ten Songs by Taylor Hicks? Taylor Hicks is a recently discovered American Idol. Although he is a new artist to the music business without his first official full CD release, he has been singing and trying to get discovered for 10 years. In that 10 years he recorded two CD’s on his own before being on Idol and fans found these CD’s after seeing Taylor Hicks on American Idol. From these two CDs and his new American Idol debut single release I have compiled my favorite Top Ten Songs by Taylor Hicks.

In 1997 Taylor Hicks released the album titled In Your Time (which can no longer be bought because Taylor will be re-recording some of the songs on the album) in 2005 he released the album titled Under the Radar.

My Top Ten Songs by Taylor Hicks are as follows;

10) The Deal – From Under the Radar – Taylor Hicks plays guitar in this song. This song is about confessing your love for someone, letting them know your love is real and you will be where they are.

9) Hell of a Day – From Under the Radar – This song has a lot of heart and soul in it. It is about a love coming to an end.

8) Takin’ it to the Streets – B side of American Idol Debut Single Do I Make You Proud – This song was first released by the Doobie Brothers in 1976. It was also the first song to feature Michael McDonald, who curiously enough is a man that Taylor Hicks has been compared to sounding like. Takin’ it to the Streets is a fan favorite at the American Idol Tour Concerts.

7) West Texas Sky - From Under the Radar – The first time I heard this song I loved it. It transported me back in time when I was home with my parents listening to their favorite country music. It made me realize my Dad would love to have heard the voice of Taylor Hicks. This sounds like a country song with a soul vibe thrown in.

6) Hold On To Your Love – From Under The Radar – A beautiful love song telling how important it is to let someone know how you feel, if you want to hold on to that love.
