Perfect songs . . . ever time . . .

Not sure if Gloria, the original by Them, has been mentioned. A classic of the garage rock genre that never gets old.

Rare card included. Van looks young.

I'm gonna go against the grain. Here's a post about a record that is primarily spoken-word.

Pictured below is an album cover with Babe Ruth. Outside of a vintage card forum, it would make zero sense. Hopefully, a few of you will appreciate a brief detour...away from music...over to an album. LOL

The record has some background music to support narration. During the portion devoted to of Babe Ruth, Take Me Out To The Ball Game plays in the background. Since that song resonates with me, it's what I'll use to bring the thread back to music.

Great thread. Carry on.

All great songs.

The original Modern Lovers were such a great underrated band

I see my favorite rock song listed -- Can't You See -- although Free Bird a close second. Favorite ballad would be Adele's Someone Like You, which knocked Shirelles' Will You Love Me Tomorrow out of first place. As to Eva Cassidy, Fields of Gold (by Sting) is excellent.
