This song.. makes me weak in my knees. The chorus should be sang with all your friends, its just epic.

I'm not a huge fan of Billy Squier, but this song just knocks me out. Stupid DJs around here are slack about announcing the title and artist after each song (a MUST back in the days of payola), so it took me a while to find out that this wasn't Jimmy Page and Robert Plant. Voice and guitar, Squier's a one-man show. Hard to believe this song is ~30 years old.

Never get tired of this oldie. It is one of the greatest soft-rock songs ever written, imo.

And here's some Jeff Beck doing a beatles song:

and wang chung to live and die in la



and greg phillinganes behind the mask



and chaka khan & rufus Aint nobody



and larry carlton la - ny



and stevie winwood hold on



some vintage neil young old man



and the allegro moderato from Bach's Brandenburg Concerto #3
this group plays it particularly well, energetically, like it's supposed to be played
turn your volume up -- can you believe that 10 acoustic musicians can make this sound?
it isn't flawless, but it is wonderful



now, some piano stuff
nobody plays Ravel like Ravel

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jDIAnwjFVVA&feature=related

cool guitarist michael hedges



a couple of versions of gf handel's unto us a child is born from the Messiah
and no I'm not a 'religious' person, but I love handel's stuff and this is powerful music
compare the two versions, the first is a somewhat smaller ensemble, but still very dynamic



this, the second, is the best version I've ever heard of this -- you will be moved by it

That was 1965.

Michelle Phillips was so hot! She is still acting.

Never caught this before

She has made guest appearances on programs such as...Star Trek: The Next Generation (where she appeared in the episode "We'll Always Have Paris" as a former love-interest of Captain Picard).

Phillips began acting in the 1970s and continues to act in movies and in television. She was introduced in 1973's Dillinger as John Dillinger's girlfriend, Billie Frechette. In 1974 she was featured in The California Kid with Martin Sheen. In 1977, she played Rudolph Valentino's second wife Natacha Rambova in Ken Russell's film Valentino. Phillips also played the mermaid princess Nyah in three episodes of Fantasy Island.

She has made guest appearances on programs such as Spin City and Star Trek: The Next Generation (where she appeared in the episode "We'll Always Have Paris" as a former love-interest of Captain Picard). She had a guest role on the television series The Magnificent Seven, where she played Maude Standish, the mother of one of the Seven. Phillips' most recent serious acting job has been a recurring role on the WB drama 7th Heaven as Lily Jackson, sister of family matriarch Annie Jackson Camden (Catherine Hicks). She played Laura Collins in the 1996 television movie No One Would Tell.

Apologies if this song is posted already

I usually hate pop music, find very few songs that are actually good but this
song has so much to it! I know I'd hate it if I heard it on the radio 50
times a day in work but I don't!

To make up for this I present you with a short bombshell of a punk song

She had a beautiful voice, Andre.

For something completely different - those of you who like 60's style folk songs, you'll love this new one, from Ray LaMontagne. Beg Steal or Borrow:

Sounds very Crosby Stills & Nash, to my ears.

 

[Astronuc]

Louis Armstrong - Kiss to Build a Dream On

 

[cronxeh]

Wow what a song.. This is really a gem of a song

Salt 'N' Pepa - Whatta Man
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8-WFNbMohTQ

 

[cronxeh]

Now don't get me wrong.. I'm not into hip-hop/rap/RnB. But everyonce in a while something amazing comes along, and whether it is techno/trance or hiphop, it deserves an acknowledgment. I nominate "Nelly - Just A Dream" to be among the best songs. It spoke for me, about me, to me, and soothed me.

Best old-fashioned geek song out there. From the days of punch-card programming.
