Crackers - "Gracie"

A co-worker told me about this band. I'd not heard of them or the tune. There isn't much (if any) info on them, other than they were Canadian, from the 70s, and played lots of bars across the country.

Jackie Evancho - juvenile singing sensation

I saw this performance the night of August 10, 2010 and I'm still blown away by this 10 year old girl's angelic gift! It's amazing that such a mature, perfect, operatic voice comes out of a tiny, young body!

The DiVinyls "I Touch Myself"

I loved the Divinyls song "I Touch Myself". And if you recall the "Fembot" scene from the one Mike Myer's "Austin Powers" movie, you'll recall the song played there. Watch the video below & you may love this Australian band & the lead singer, too!


Here's a NYC concert in 1991 that Christina is at her erotic best!


On TV in 1991...toned down!


And then in a 1993 concert:

Sweet Home Alabama - Lynyrd Skynrd

From a 2007 concert in Louisville.

No "Free Ride" in air travel today

I thought I was the "Weird Al" of parody songs on YouTube but this fellow deserves the title. Great lyrics, video clips & graphics, nice editing - all lead to a fantastic spoof!

What Ever Happened to Saturday Night - Meatloaf

Hot Patooti!
It is Saturday today...so What Ever Happened to Saturday Night? Know what I mean?
I have this clip from the movie, Rocky Horror Picture Show, but here's someone else's YouTube post. It's done as a slideshow with song lyrics. Bonus!

I Just Don't Look Good Naked Anymore

Stanley Boreson - who just turned 85, gets (almost) naked in his 'vunderful' video from 2007. I can relate to this tune...anyone else?

MacLean & MacLean "I've Seen Pubic Hair"

Another classic recording from this duo, back in there day. Sadly both of them have passed away.

He Ain't Gonna Jump No More song

This song goes by various titles: "Blood on The Risers" or "I'd Like to Find the Sargeant", or another variant is "He'll Never Fly Home Again", etc. But they all have the same chorus - "Gory, Gory what a hell of a way to die". All variants are to the tune of John Brown's Body. This is one if not the best version I've found. Apparently this song is played every day at Fort Bragg in the US.

The Airman's Prayer song

This is a military song we sang 30 years ago. In the book ``Songs From The Front & Rear`` published 1979, it`s also referred to as ``The First Thing They Asked For`` but the `Airman`s Song Book` says that The Airman`s Prayer goes back to the 1930`s RAF. The version we sang was adapted by the Canadian Air Force of the time, so lyrics & verses vary.
