Post Your Favorite Songs

[Kathi]

You're bringing back some good memories, @Kathi. Back in the day, I really had a thing for Grace Slick. I would have even dated her, if she had asked me out....

I thought Gracie was one of the best singers ever! I can see why you would date her--she was beautiful! And such a voice! Good memories for me too Jim. Watch out, I'll be posting The Doors.... loved them and saw them at Filmore East back in the day. Also say Janis when she was with Big Brother and I saw Zep at the Garden. Zep is one of my faves. I have too many faves.

 

[Kathi]

Yep love Chicago, Your right @jimH , never were the same after that.

Some more of mine....






Absolutely love Sade and I love the use of the sax in her music, something very sexy about it and her.

Absolutely wonderful! I really love Sade-I'd forgotten how good her music is--thanks for posting this.

Not really similar, but the Dave Brubeck post made me think of this lovely track:

[Street Spirit]

Come in, babe
Across these purple fields
The sun has sunk behind you
Across these purple fields
That idiot-boy in the corner
Is speaking deviated truths
Come on, admit it, babe
It's a wonderful life
If you can find it
If you can find it
If you can find it
It's a wonderful life that you bring
Ooh it's a wonderful thing

Speak our secret into your hands
And hold it in between
Plunge your hands into the water
And drown it in the sea
There will be nothing between us, baby
But the air that we breathe
Don't cry
It's a wonderful, wonderful life
If you can find it
If you can find it
If you can find it
It's a wonderful life that you bring
It's a wonderful, wonderful thing

We can build our dungeons in the air
And sit and cry the blues
We can stomp across this world
With nails hammered through our shoes
We can join that troubled chorus
Who criticise and accuse
It don't matter much, no
We got nothing much to lose
But this wonderful life
If you can find it
And when you find it
And when you find it
It's a wonderful life that you bring
It's a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful thing

Sometimes our secrets are all we've got
With our lives we must defend
Sometimes the air between us, babe
Is unbearably thin
Sometimes it's wise to lay down your gloves
And just give in
Come in, come in
Come in, come in
To this wonderful life
If you can find it
And if you find it
It's a wonderful life that you bring
It's a wonderful, wonderful thing
It's a wonderful life
It's a wonderful life

The very under rated Saxon.





And (IMO) one of the great's and terribly under rated Rush.

Rush are awesome! Nearly half a century of terrible clothes and amazing music!

Favorite all time scene of any vid, is Slash chucking his guitar off the cliff. Epic.


"Don't Cry"

Talk to me softly
There's something in your eyes
Don't hang your head in sorrow
And please don't cry
I know how you feel inside I've
I've been there before
Somethin's changin' inside you
And don't you know

Don't you cry tonight
I still love you baby
Don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry tonight

Give me a whisper
And give me a sigh
Give me a kiss before you
tell me goodbye
Don't you take it so hard now
And please don't take it so bad
I'll still be thinkin' of you
And the times we had...baby

And don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
Don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry tonight

And please remember that I never lied
And please remember
how I felt inside now honey
You gotta make it your own way
But you'll be alright now sugar
You'll feel better tomorrow
Come the morning light now baby

And don't you cry tonight
An don't you cry tonight
An don't you cry tonight
There's a heaven above you baby
And don't you cry
Don't you ever cry
Don't you cry tonight
Baby maybe someday
Don't you cry
Don't you ever cry
Don't you cry
Tonight

@RichL if you haven't seen it yet you might enjoy checking this documentary out:

Yes @jimH , IMO the most under rated band of all time, My first LP I ever brought was Fly By Night and man that got thrashed!
Neal Peart is by far the best drummer on the planet, not the fastest but the best musical drummer by a mile.

I have that doco but have only seen half of it, must get round to watching the rest.

@just1morething, Great taste in music and cat names!

Love Christopher Cross too.

Some more of mine.....



Ian Gillan, what a voice!

 

[just1morething]

@RichL, Great oldie tunes and cat names! I liked Fleetwood Mac.

Now Jim Morrison and the Doors.

@RichL ....Here's my fave of Stevie Nicks:

 

[Street Spirit]

"Street Spirit (Fade Out)"

Rows of houses, all bearing down on me
I can feel their blue hands touching me
All these things into position
All these things we'll one day swallow whole
And fade out again and fade out

This machine will, will not communicate
These thoughts and the strain I am under
Be a world child, form a circle
Before we all go under
And fade out again and fade out again

Cracked eggs, dead birds
Scream as they fight for life
I can feel death, can see its beady eyes
All these things into position
All these things we'll one day swallow whole
And fade out again and fade out again

Immerse your soul in love
IMMERSE YOUR SOUL IN LOVE
