Music Monday: Lobo – “Don’t Expect Me to Be Your Friend”

Posted By on November 18, 2024

Although I listened to a fair amount of “easy listening” music through the years and have posted music by Lobo years ago on Music Monday, I don’t recall listening to his 1972 song back in the day.

According to Wikipedia, Kent LaVoie (Lobo) released the “Don’t Expect Me to Be Your Friend” on his “Of a Simple Man” album and it peaked at number 8 in on Billboards Top 100 U.S.  It was a number 1 hit on Billboards easy listening chart for 2 weeks.

To be fair, 1972 was before my music listening years, but sounds quite familiar to me these days since it is played on a few of the SiriusXM channels I listen to these days.
