Ah! Memories!

This video stunned me when it first appeared on MTV.



The following gave me the best chuckle of the week.

I had pizza for dinner

The price I pay for eating pizza these days is dreams just like this one:

More Music

Since large does of Vicodin seem to make my dick pretty much useless I've had to forgo great sexual revelations for a bit. In this, hopefully, short recess from sexual romping I've grown fascinated, thanks to YouTube, with tracking down various versions of some of the great songs of our time. I get pretty annoyed with the commentaries that usually follow these performances: "This version is okay, but so-and-so's is so much better." Blech. Covers of some songs by less-than-adequate singers are just watered down versions of the original. But sometimes you realize that new artists have added such depth and a personal vision to the original you can't help but applaud and enjoy.

These four versions (starting with the original by Peggy Lee) are SO different and all four of them I find absolutely stunning.

Music

Never, NEVER fails to make me feel better.
Enjoy.

From Eartha Kitt's Mouth to Divine's Ears

In 1989 Jonathan Hellyer became lead singer for Bronski Beat, and the band extensively toured the U.S. and Europe with back-up vocalist Annie Conway and had one minor hit with the song "Cha Cha Heels", a one-off collaboration sung by American actress and singer Eartha Kitt. The song was originally written for movie and recording star Divine, who was unable to record the song before his death in 1988. (From Wikipedia)

Rare Nina Simone

This performance blows me away. The piano alone is worth listening!

Also true for this one:

Louisiana Hayride

Hubby's mother skipped school and went to this concert up in Shreveport. There's a chance my hubby is Elvis' son. Graceland here I come.

A Christmas Song for Everyone!

At Last

I miss my hubby. He's in Louisiana with his family. Me? Off to Whorlando for 10 days of work. Hope somebody in your life makes you sing this song.

Great Music. Must Listen!

Even the predictable key change.

You be the judge.....

Three Versions of a Great Tune.

Oh.....have a sense of humor.

Hal Ketchum - 5 O'Clock World

Love this guy's version. Totally

Shit! I wandered down the music avenue. Again.

Us folk growing older.....well, we love this shit. And I do really like the Counting Crows version. But seeing Joni smile about half way through this is so cool.

You really have to listen to this. This build in orchestral backup is amazing.

My Big Ten Inch

After you've listened to that one, be sure to listen to "I Want a Bowlegged Woman"
