Pick Your Favorite Song by a Group/Artist

Repeat? I don't think so. Never understood the "official version" with the horse in the video. She's one of the true greats in live performance. The best I ever saw (video) was live in Barcelona, but that one has disappeared , so the fall back is here. Tina Turner Simply The Best

I love her cover of "Never Can Say Goodbye" much better although I know this is her biggest hit

Yesyes. Her "Never Can Say Goodbye" is my pick.

 

[nwhoopfan]

My favorite too ...

Also good for decades of speculation of who it was about. Long before Taylor Swift was even born the art of telling somebody off in a song had been perfected.

 

[JordyG]

When it comes to Sinatra this is my very favorite.

 

[JordyG]

When it comes to Nat this is my go to.

And the new girl on the block. Here's a concert.

"Highways and dance halls, a good song takes you far" Others like Jackson Browne covered it, but the original by Danny O'Keefe is a knockout in my book. Gotta be one of the best songs about the road ever written:

Finally the Belle.

The Rhinestone Cowboy- RIP Glen Campbell:

 

[Kaizen]

Too many to choice from Beatles but I like this one ...

 

[JordyG]

Okay, I'm going to cheat and double down. The Belle.

 

[Scud49]

Always loved this one from a very talented group:

 

[Scud49]

Too many to choice from Beatles but I like this one ...

Yea, early on in this thread I thought of the Beatles, and then I thought "I can't go there, there's too much to deal with". It's good to have situations like that I think. I finally posted "While my Guitar Gently Weeps", but it could easily have been one of many other great choices.

One of the best love song ...

Funny. My wife and I were discussing this one last week with a DJ we hired for an event where we were picking songs from every decade from the 50s til now. It’s a great one. I think it was famously used in the movie Ghost.

"It was raining hard in Frisco, I needed one more fare to make my night"

Harry Chapin's had an incredible gift for story telling put to music:

 

[Beemer]

For my 2 friends ...

Thanks @Kaizen !

 

[RockyMTblue2]

Okay, I know their most popular version of this was put up this morning, but if you like rock guitar you have to listen to the 5 minute prelude in this performance. Brilliant:

 

[Beemer]

When it comes to Sinatra this is my very favorite.

Great call! I also love "It Was A Very Good Year".

 

[RockyMTblue2]

This artist had two genuine hits, one of which went Platinum. Poor girl died of a brain aneurysm at home at 52. Here's her biggest. Laura Branigan singing Gloria.

I may have stuck another Lee Ann Womack song up here, but this is The Song with which she is most associated: I Hope You Dance Very good advice my friends.
