Pick Your Favorite Song by a Group/Artist

@RockyMTblue2, you mentioned earlier in one of your threads on Me and Bobby McGee. This is one of my favorites that was not done by the great Janice Joplin. Hope you enjoy Pink's version.

Pink is one of my favs and her version is in my play list too. Great choice.

I read a while back "Something" is the 2nd most covered Beatles song after "Yesterday".

@Scud49 Here is a young lady Avonlea with Sina on the drums doing their cover of Something. I believe that Avonlea was 13 at the time that it was done. The person playing the guitars is Sina's father.

@Kaizen, what to say. You may like this one! This group only appeared in one movie. The Three Amigos.

Uh oh, this could almost induce me into starting a quotable movies thread. Would you say I have a plethora of pinatas?

A great song from 1974.
70.s music was a great era.. Much better than today's crap..

There is some great music out there, it’s just a little hard to find. I don’t think I’ve posted this before:

Since Genesis and Gabriel have both come up recently, I’ll post a Gabriel and post-Gabriel Genesis sings. First one is from Lamb Lies Down:

Yes, a thread for the movie songs ....

And here’s one from Trick of the Tail. I think this is one of the most well-crafted songs ever on a popular album.

I go to an exercise class for old farts. The young instructors usually have music that is inappropriate for this group. I recently provided them with some playlists that seem to have invigorated the group. My British Invasion list has been popular. Most of the really well known artists of the British Invasion have already been included in this thread but I’m going to add several more. Hope you enjoy them.

The best dressed man in Rock and Roll.

I can't help it. This is a pretty funny spoof of Palmer's famous video. (Oops, it's a different song of his, Simply Irresistible. But I'm doing it anyway.) Gender flipped.

The Yardbirds had a fair amount of turnover among the members, but at various times, they included great guitarists Jeff Beck, Jimmy Page, and Eric Clapton. Clapton is the ONLY TRIPLE inductee into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame (with the Yardbirds and Cream and solo).

An earlier hit from Robert Palmer.

My favorite Hollies song.

A big +1 to this. I almost posted something similar. There are dozens and dozens of genres and subgenres of music now. What's considered "popular" these days often doesn't float my boat but there's so much more out there. There was great stuff in the 90s, 80s, 70s, 60s, 50s and on back thru the decades. There was some amazing music in the 1600 and 1700s that still sounds great today. But truly not all current music sucks. I certainly understand the sentiment when people get nostalgic, but broad sweeping generalizations are often wrong.

She has a beautiful voice....To date, Newton has received five Grammy Awards.

LMAO. Good one. Really good.
