Sunday Classics 27.07.25​

Hello, members! This week’s Sunday Classic was suggested by member @Wayneo. We’re rewinding to the golden era of '70s rock with a track that blurs the line between performance and party. This week’s Sunday Classic is 'Stay' by Jackson Browne—a crowd-pleasing encore that wraps up his 1977 live album Running on Empty.

Originally a doo-wop hit by Maurice Williams & the Zodiacs in 1960, Jackson Browne reimagined 'Stay'as a cheeky closing number. It starts where the show should end, then flips the script: bandmates take turns on the mic, fans cheer for more, and saxophonist David Lindley wails his way into legend. The song isn’t just a closer—it’s a wink to the audience, a celebration of the road, and a backstage pass to life on tour.

If you've ever shouted 'just one more!' at the end of a gig, this song gets you. So hit play, sing along—and tell us: what classic should we feature next?

Johnny Mathis songs are smooth and he has a lovely voice. Could we have Twelvth of Never by Johnny Mathis for one of our Sunday Classics Please?
