We had a blue eyed soul thread some years ago. So now in 2020 what are some of your favorites? 70's, 80's, 90's, or later,rock,pop,doesn't matter. This is less then a fraction of what I have in my playlist. I'll start off.

I love 'Don't Give Up' - very powerful song for me.
I'm not sure if these qualify, but some of the other songs I play with 'Don't Give Up' are:
-- "Beloved Wife" by Natalie Merchant
-- "Living It Up", "Company", and "Last Chance Texaco" by Rickie Lee Jones
-- "Angel" by Sarah McClachlan
-- "Photograph" by Ed Sheeran
-- "Willow" and "Down to Zero" by Joan Armatrading

From a period a little earlier than you specified Cliff. Trust you find these selections consistent with what you were looking for.

The O.P asked for 70’s and newer. Otherwise, the Righteous Bro’s. Would have been one of the 1st mentioned, at least I think so.

Looking at all the responses it would appear mine were well off the mark. Sorry Cliff.
I'll simply claim it was a senior BLUES moment.

Hey, but as long as you brought it in, did anyone notice the young Mick Taylor on guitar in "Walking On Sunset"? Clapton is easier to spot (and hear) in "Hideaway".
Sorry Cliff.
