Pick Your Favorite Song by a Group/Artist

Renaissance's "A Trip to the Fair". When Annie Haslam's voice comes in around the 3:30 mark its all over for me:

[Kaizen]

One of the best love song ...

 

[Bama fan]

I like Blue more than any other, but I just like Joni.

Speaking of George Harrison and the Beatles, there are so many songs of theirs I love, and this one is way up there:

It took over 160 posts before the first song by the Beatles or one of the individuals in the group. Maybe as Scud said there are just so many great songs that it is hard to pick one. It was late 1963 shortly after the Kennedy assassination when I first heard this. It cheered me up then and still brings a smile to my face whenever I hear it. I’m sure a few of you can still name the 5 songs that they sang on their first appearance on the Ed Sullivan show.
(All My Loving, Till There Was You, I Saw Her Standing There, She Loves You and I Want to Hold Your Hand).

I like Simon but I love Garfunkel's voice.

 

[MilfordHusky]

Long, Long Time

Little girl with a BIG voice.

 

[MilfordHusky]

So young! The old Mike Douglas show in Philly.

My favorite Van Morrison song is "Into the Mystic"

 

[Conndog]

And here is my favorite Harry Nilsson song, which is the" Moonbeam Song"

 

[Conndog]

I love this song by Elvin Bishop- yes, "Fooled Around and Fell in Love"

 

[MilfordHusky]

Not PP & M's most beautiful song, and they had so many, but an icon of the political awakening of many people in the Viet Nam War era. If I Had A Hammer.

The great Mary Travers.

 

[Conndog]

Saw someone posted for Chicago already, but my favorite song by them is "Lowdown"

 

[JordyG]

Jethro Tull

Probably my fav road drivin' song by Jethro Tull:

You guys are going to hate me, but I saw these guys 3x. I especially remember when they premiered this album, when they premeired, "Nothing Is Easy", and when they premiered "For A Thousand Mothers".

 

[hoophuskee]

My favorite Stones tune.

 

[JordyG]

Joni Mitchell, Jaco Pastorius, and a young Pat Metheny on tour in 1979 - the song is "Coyote" probably my all time fav Joni tune:

Wait. "Coyote" over this?

This is another topical song, from Steppenwolf. As with many of theirs, really clever lyrics.

Over "The Pusher"? I saw these guys twice, once after the release of "Born To Be Wild" and after "Magic Carpet Ride", and both times they did "The Pusher".

I love this song by Elvin Bishop- yes, "Fooled Around and Fell in Love"

Saw Elvin twice before Mickey joined, so I never got to hear them do this. Great song, great voice.

My favorite song of PP&M--

 

[MilfordHusky]

This is the song you wanted to dance to in HS 10 min with the lights down low

The MSG live version is a classic.

 

[hoophuskee]

And from Jeff Airplane

I like the audio there better, but the 50-year-old Woodstock video is cool.

Oops didn't see this before. I put it on later.

My choice for Neil Young (great audio)

 

[MilfordHusky]

Who?

[Conndog]

Any Olivia Newton John fans? This one is my favorite, "A Little More Love" (but Hopelessly Devoted To You is tremendous too)

When up at UConn in the late 70s, one of my friends had a record by wrestler Fred Blassie, and when wasted he'd play it- love the song on it called "Pencil Neck Geek"
