The follow up vision by Alicia Keys - Empire State Of Mind

I love this song. From the first few notes, you have my attention.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_DUfWnBL1nw&feature=related
Loooooooove this song. This is what I had on loop last night while I was working. I mean to post this last night, but I was overcome and fell asleep. This is a song that I wished I wrote and did the vocals on.
-
You listening to the Bulletboys just blows my mind!!
Aw duuuuuude
You've kidding right.
You should know I like, no, lurve a lot of the hair band nation. We just have interest in particulars bands more than the other does.
-
No, I know you like some Hair Bands from the 80's, it's just that I never would have expected the Bulletboys to be on your list since you have never mentioned them before....thus the head trip.

The Verve - Lucky Man
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MH6TJU0qWoY&ob=av2e
Been working for the last few hours non-stop and I've had this one playing on a loop the whole time. Definitely one of the Greatest Songs to my ears. Thanks to Mac for digging this one up for me, all because of this (http://pennycan.createaforum.com/tv's-greatest-hits-and-misses/journeyman-(season-1-entire-series)/msg4201/#msg4201) episode of Journeyman (http://pennycan.createaforum.com/tv's-greatest-hits-and-misses/journeyman-(season-1-entire-series)/msg4173/#msg4173).

Ray Charles - Georgia On My Mind

Such an amazing song.

Georgia is just a fantastic song... period.
I'm partial to Willie's version
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k_QOB6hujBU
-
It's very rare when 2 singers can actually have two definitive versions of the same song. This is one of them. I actually grew up on Willie's version before learning as a kid that he wasn't the originator. And by kid, I mean last week.

Glenn Frey - You Belong To The City

Whenever I listen to Baker Street, it reminds me of You Belong To The City and Vice Versa. Either way, these two songs definitely belong in this thread and this is my favorite from Glenn Frey, no question about it.
-
Baker Street is a great song.

I miss hearing Baker Street on the radio. Sh*t, it was EVERYWHERE!! Those days are long gone. (http://i74.photobucket.com/albums/i266/Chiprocks1/Smilies/0%20All%20Smilies/HTL_mad.gif)

You holding out on this. Why is this the first time we are hearing about your directorial duties...
.... or did you say something before and I just wasn't listening.
anyway
WTF.... post it dude.
George Thorogood is one of those artists I love to hear burst out from the speakers, but after 3-4 songs, I'm done. My fav by him is a little number called Blue Highway

Yeah, I mentioned it at the other site a few years back. Wouldn't be able to post it because it's full of copyrighted songs and would get taken down immediately. I'm already on my 3rd YouTube account because of posting copyrighted stuff. Now I don't post anything because it always f u c k s up with my channel subscriptions of what I want to follow.

Eddie Money - Shakin'

This is one of those strange incidents where there is something about Eddie Money I never bought into. I do think it's his voice. I do love Take Me Home Tonight but I believe it's mostly for Ronnie Spector's parts.
Not intending to dis on one of your fav. I do understand his popularity. He was pretty damn big in the day.

No man, you mean Bob Dylan. He's the one you hate.

Related note...
I found this piece rather funny and on the mark...
Faith talking through it adds quite a bit.
Really
(CBS News) Contributor Faith Salie is really worked up about a certain use of the word "Really" . . . I mean, REALLY! . . . . :
Recently, New York Times critic Neil Genzlinger expressed that he really has an issue with "Really?" As in, Really?
Then comedian Jerry Seinfeld, an early adopter of the "Really?" wrote a public defense of the "R word," predictably, mordantly summing up his response to the Times with . . . "Really."
In case you don't watch much TV or spend time with anyone under 40, "Really?" is pop culture's pithiest way to deliver a withering put-down. In today's abbreviated world of texting and 140-character tweets, this adverb says it all.
But adverbs aren't meant to say it all! Adverbs, we know, are meant to modify a verb, an adjective, or another adverb. They help us understand things more clearly, more vividly, more . . . morely.
Really!
The problem with "Really?" is that when it stands alone, it's an unimaginative riposte.
What if earlier generations had leaned on this laconic ironic crutch? Remember the famous exchange in which Bessie Braddock said to Winston Churchill, "Sir, you are drunk," to which he replied, "Madam, you are ugly. But in the morning, I shall be sober"?
If Churchill had merely replied, "Really?" the world would have lost one of the great drunken comebacks of all time.
We can only hope that "Really?" is having its moment because "actually" is taking a breather. For the past decade, you've probably heard the adverb "actually" in virtually every other sentence.
Like, you're talking to a friend who asks what you're doing later. "Um, actually, I'm going to the market." In which case "actually" suggests that your going food shopping is surprising, or true - that either your personal assistant always fetches your groceries, or that everything you've said before now is a lie.
Kids these days use "actually" so much that it literally kills me.
Did you catch that last adverb?! Literally, did you catch it? Did it come flying out of my mouth through your screen and into your hands? I'm not actually perishing, but I do feel like I die a little every time someone uses "literally" to mean "really." The real kind of really, not the "Really?" kind of really.
If you are really cold, for example, you must put on a hat and gloves; if you say you are literally freezing to death, you must use your frostbitten hands to dial 911 and to scrawl your last wishes in the snow that envelops you.
If I may succinctly, finally, really sum this up, I feel like a total fuddyduddy, because I've just used the phrase "kids these days" like some kind of schoolmarm who wants those hooligans off my grammatical lawn. But it's not the kids' fault. They just didn't get to learn adverbs in the old-fashioned, groovy way that aged folks of my generation did: "Schoolhouse Rock."

Julie Meyer - Alabaster Box
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8RF2MXNPhpI
This is such an incredible song. Julie's voice is AMAZING! I discovered her and the this song in particular a couple of years ago. I can't remember exactly how I stumbled onto the song though. I don't know anything about the singer other than what I googled her and that she is very religious and that she puts out christian music. That's the extent of my knowledge of her music career. As for the song, I just love the way it keeps building and building and the release at the bridge of the song. Wow.

A Lover's Prayer - The Del-Lords
You may have never heard of these guys, but some have considered them one of the better bands of the 80's. A mixture of blues, rockabilly, rock and country. I found this song one of the best. I never get tired of it. It sounds like a throwback to the 50's.

Updated my George Thorogood - Blue Highway post (http://pennycan.createaforum.com/music/the-greatest-songs-of-all-time/msg11363/#msg11363). It needed to be heard. Ran across it again and it just sounds so good.

The Beatles - Penny Can
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_hIV7jwLXt8
Wow, I never new the lyrics to this song before till now. All this time I thought the name of the song was Penny Lane. I stand corrected. Check out the lyrics for further proof...
Penny Can Lyrics
Penny Can there is a barber showing photographs
Of every head he's had the pleasure to have known
And all the people that come and go
Stop and say hello
On the corner is a banker with a motorcar
The little children laugh at him behind his back
And the banker never wears a mac
In the pouring rain...
Very strange
Penny Can is in my ears and in my eyes
There beneath the blue suburban skies
I sit, and meanwhile back
In Penny Can there is a fireman with an hourglass
And in his pocket is a portrait of the Queen.
He likes to keep his fire engine clean
It's a clean machine
Trumpet Solo
Penny Can is in my ears and in my eyes
Four of fish and finger pies
In summer, meanwhile back
Behind the shelter in the middle of a roundabout
A pretty nurse is selling poppies from a tray
And though she feels as if she's in a play
She is anyway
Penny Can the barber shaves another customer
We see the banker sitting waiting for a trim
Then the fireman rushes in
From the pouring rain...
Very strange
Penny Can is in my ears and in my eyes
There beneath the blue suburban skies
I sit, and meanwhile back
Penny Can is in my ears and in my eyes
There beneath the blue suburban skies...
Penny Can.
Brilliant Lyrics!!!!

Having just watched The Wedding Singer (http://pennycan.createaforum.com/dvd's-blu-rays/the-wedding-singer-(1998)/msg17310/#msg17310), I was reminded of the fact that Love My Way absolutely belongs in a thread called 'Greatest Songs of all Time'. No doubt.
