Absolutely all top notch. Gotta be one of the best ever.
Must be played up LOUD with the tennis racquet for guitar!!
hoyt,
yea kristoferson wrote "me & my bobby mcgee" & have heard him sing it , but most people associate the song with janis. and i might add that she did a great job on it.
and imo, anything sung by ray charles is a great song. that man has soul.

whenever I throw a party at the cottage, I always make sure that the HYSTERIA CD is being played, it has this unexplainable effect...
Boilermaker-
You wanted an Ohio Players song? I'll nominate Fire. But not before Smoke on the Water (Deep Purple) and War Pigs (Sabbath)

.....played lots of songs on the radio and at clubs.
Gotta nominate for Greatest Song Ever "True Faith" by New Order (Qwest/Factory Records, 1987). Danceable, hypnotic, filled with darkness and tension. The song kicks off with a drum intro, followed by a melodic bass line, and then the synth bass and keyboard textures. The break and coda are absolute killer. Bernard's lyrics are unemotional, but perfect for this song. It's basically a song about drugs, though at times the lyrics seem to mean nothing and are often filled with metaphor. The groundbreaking music video won Best Video at the '87 BRIT Awards.
