"I'll Remember You" by Bob Seger

Bob Seger has been cranking out the hits since the late 60s, although his final chart appearance was in 1991 when "The Real Love" reached #24. He was inducted into the R&R Hall of Fame in 2004 and ranks as the 92nd most successful artist on the charts. His best decade was the 80s, in which he ranked #31.

Throughout his stellar career, Seger managed a lone #1 hit, which arrived in 1987: "Shakedown," which was featured in the hit movie Beverly Hills Cop II. The closest he came to claiming the top spot again was in 1982 when "Shame On The Moon" spent 4 weeks at #2.

Seger's last album was in 2017 and it is one of his most memorable efforts. Dedicated to his buddy Glenn Frey of The Eagles, who passed away in 2016, the album boasts some of his finest rockers and ballads. Among the latter is "I'll Remember You." Frey actually contributed backing vocals to Seger's first chart hit, "Ramblin' Gamblin' Man," which reached #17 in 1969.
