another good one!

I also like the Kama Sutra intro on her live DVD right before this song I think.

[SapphireSister]

I've gone on a Cher downloading rampage to my ipod. God help me now!

I just found the We All Sleep Alone remix. How lucky can one girl get?

[SapphireSister]

Wow Michael Bolton wrote I found Someone and Jon Bon Jovi wrote We All Sleep Alone. I had no clue!

Does she write any of her own songs? All the songs on her albums from the 80's seem to be written by other people.

[Johnny Stew]

I'm going to answer before I read anyone else's replies.

1. Heart Of Stone
2. Song For The Lonely
3. The Sun Ain't Gonna Shine Anymore
4. One By One
5. The Music's No Good Without You
6. The Way Of Love
7. I Hate To Sleep Alone
8. Bang Bang (new version)
9. Human
10. We All Sleep Alone

There are so many others though.

My favorite Cher song, and my favorite version of it.

You had several others on your list that I love (especially "Love And Understanding")... I guess I should have done an "honorable mentions" thing!

Johnny does Cher write any of her own stuff?

She's written/co-written some of her own songs here and there, but the bulk of her material is written by other songwriters.

Because Stevie writes so much of her own music and is such a prolific sonngwriter and being that I'm a huge fan of hers I respect people as artists so much more when they write their own stuff. Oh well for Cher, she's got other things going I guess.

She's a waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better actress than Stevie.

Ha ha you are soooooo damn right about that one sister! The Witches of Eastwick, Moonstruck, and Mask are 3 of my all time favorite movies. Damn that woman can act. Good point there.

I never hold it against a singer when they don't write their own music.
The "great ones" like Frank Sinatra rarely ever wrote any of their own material.

And some of my favorite female singers, like Tina Turner and Bonnie Tyler, have only written a few of their own songs over the years.

Some folks are "just" singers, while others are singer/songwriters.

You are soooo right about that. That's why I love these discussions because I can get other people's insight. Does Babs write her own stuff? I'd venture to say not.
