The Hill Heart Foundation Exclusive Album

Notes from the Producer
Music is the grease on the wheels of life. That’s how I’ve always thought of it. It’s always there playing in the background of all of our important moments — your first kiss, your first love, your first marriage. Life has a soundtrack, and each song is a story. When the Hill Heart Foundation came to me looking for a unique soundtrack, they specifically wanted all of their stories to be about love. That’s what Michelle Hill would want.
Love, I cringed.
I’ve never told a love story before. What will the guys think? So I turned to the folks who know love best — Leonard Nimoy and 1980’s radio theater. “Love Conquers All” is an awesomely cheesy radio program that aired on Thursday, March 6, 1980, on the Mutual Radio Theater show, hosted by none other than Spock himself. What better way to celebrate the power of love than to: A) not use that Huey Lewis song; B) use ridiculous dialogue from a long lost radio show; C) pair it with old, obscure love ballads; and D) mix it with the coolest new singles coming out right now. Fool for You is the result, titled after the Curtis Mayfield classic of the same name.
The entire album is an amalgamation of old and new. It’s probably your only real opportunity to hear the futuristic Canuck rock of Serena Ryder (“Baby Come Back”) mixed with Four Seasons-era Frankie Valli (“You’re a Song (That I Can’t Sing)”). The album is filled with Michelle Hill favorites too, including Bryan Adams, Coldplay and (not one, but actually two) Olivia Newton-John tracks. But fear not! These are singles you’ve likely never heard before, and those faves mingle with just-released hits from the likes of Tank, Generationals and Phox, which came out a mere month ago. You are so suddenly hip.
