Great song and a good cover version of it. Would've preferred the original version, but this is still great fun. Drummer earned her beer for sure.

Found it (cover of the Japanese version). This is even better. Same drummer with different musicians.

Typical drummers, theres always one there trying to blend in with the musicians.

Dedicated to my beautiful neighbour Bev, ultra-loud, following her complaining on the phone to someone that she cant here them because of my music.

To you Bev....

This is a decent cover of a Queensrÿche song. Always liked the original and don't mind this one either.

Got an earworm from somewhere, Ozark Mountain Daredevils' "Jackie Blue" - no drama, no diva, just a band performing music, the vocalist respecting the contribution from other band members, unlike almost ALL music produced today:

And I have to be in the mood for upbeat love songs like this, but Rita Coolidge had an amazing voice, both on "We're All Alone" and "Higher and Higher":

And here's another classic from Joan Jett's cover of "Crimson & Clover":

There was a bio on Ella Fitzgerald recently on PBS, it was interesting, and kind of sad that her personal life was such a mess. Philistine that I am, I most remember her "Is it live, or is it Memorex?" commercials, but if you've ever heard one of her scat recordings, it is just amazing - somehow, she draws you in and charms your socks off. Her scats were very impromptu, so you wouldn't have anyone covering an Ella Fitzgerald scat, but listen to this:

Pleasant Finnish music to start the weekend.

Nick Cave reincarnated as a devilish female?

HANABIE.

Very nice, added to my playlist.

Mary's Prayer - as a college student, I heard this all the time, but it doesn't have a easily identifiable title, and I don't know, I just never wrote it down, lol. But I saw it recently on one of those 80's compilations, and was like, oh! I remember this one - it was a very hard time in my life and listening to this song gave me some kind of inner strength:

From Melbourne I think. Good stuff.
