I heard this live on Stern's show, and I spent weeks finding a recording of it.

It has to be one of the greatest live performances of any song ever, by any artist.

When a (real) singer, a guitar, and a great song get together, magic happens.

Someone mentioned Hank Jr. in another thread... here's his latest, "That Ain't Good."

I was seriously thinking about putting this in the Jukebox from Hell some time in the next few days, but given the circumstances, I figured it'd be poor taste.

Here's Phyllis Diller, who finally finished 95 years of life, with her take on The Rolling Stones hit Satisfaction:

The idea that somebody looked at a purple onion and called it a red onion really bothers me.

For some odd reason I recall posting this one here before... but it's a good tune and one that I don't hear enough.

Frank Zappa, a brilliant musician and a pretty good social commentator too... thankfully he never lived to see Jersey Shore:

Quote

This performance gives goosebumps on high volume.....the intensity of the performers is off the charts......


Songwriters: BACHARACH, BURT / DAVID, HAL

A chair is still a chair
Even when there's no one sitting there
But a chair is not a house
And a house is not a home
When there's no one there to hold you tight,
And no one there you can kiss good night.
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/b/burt_bacharach/a_house_is_not_a_home.html ]
A room is still a room
Even when there's nothing there but gloom;
But a room is not a house,
And a house is not a home
When the two of us are far apart
And one of us has a broken heart.

Now and then I call your name
And suddenly your face appears
But it's just a crazy game
When it ends it ends in tears.

Darling, have a heart,
Don't let one mistake keep us apart.
I'm not meant to live alone. turn this house into a home.
When I climb the stair and turn the key,
Oh, please be there still in love with me.

You know he didn't get up there by himself, he doesn't belong up there, he doesn't know what to do while he is up there, and you just wonder what kind of an idiot put him up there to begin with.
