Randoms: Songs That We All Probably Know
I'm on a serious R&B kick tonight as I try to rebuild my mp3 collection
Some one hit wonders that may be worth your disk space
- Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes
- Ben E King
- Percy Sledge
I'm just getting started...if you have any suggestions I would love them. I'm considering going in soul and death metal this week.
Try a little Tenderness always makes me think of Pretty in Pink. It makes me feel like it's ok to really sing that song and get on my knees. All of Otis Redding songs should end up with someone on their knees sobbing or lamenting in some way. The piano part totally makes the song
Holy shit did you know that Otis Redding died at 26. He did this depth of work before 26. Holy crap. Holy holy. He puts them all to shame in my eyes.
Did you know "Hard to Handle" sung so famously by the Black Crowes is a real old song?
"Change is Gonna Come" by Otis Redding is friggin awesome...be proud of that one Douglas
I would party with Al Green...I thin I could hold that down...that and Marvin and I could watch porn together
Some Temptations is so damn good...Poppa was rolling Stone, Have You seen her...others im sure...but man...so overrated to the point where they are underrated...you know? The Papa was a Rolling Stone Story is great...look it up...hold on...heres' something on it...
I wonder how mant qp's Al Green and Marvin Gay put don in the 60's and 70's
I haven't had nearly enough sex to this music.
Love and Happiness is so good it hurts...the little chruch organ change is just damn brilliant
