Friday Five: Lonely songs

With some people going into isolation and others being told to practice “social distancing” — why not some “lonely” songs?

The rankings are determined by Jamie, (not David this week) and Scott on three factors: how big or iconic a song was, how does it stand the test of time, and personal preferences.

This is this week’s Friday Five.
