He deserves the right to just stand there and watch that one. Wow.

"Longer Than You've been Alive" from the album "Most Messed Up".
"Ah, the fans are all clappin'
And screamin' and squealin'
And I won't lie you you
That's a pretty sweet feeling"

Day 7
In this challenge, I'm staying with artists I've seen in concert until I run out. Here's a 9 time Grammy winner. I really liked her 2nd (self-titled) and 3rd albums (Globe Sessions). Here's a song from #2.

Love that song even if it is fabricated. I can relate it to a time in my life. You got my vote.
Freddie Mercury and Stephen Tyler came to mind first.
Interesting discussion.
By the way if you werenβt aware, Rufus Wainwright is the son of Kate McGarrigle who I just featured a few days ago.
I donβt know how anyone could not like this song. Itβs so rock & roll.
Iβm like your countdown. Iβm a little familiar with her as the album βMay Your Kindness Remainβ caught my attention years ago but Iβve never dug into some her other releases.

"Well, a box of red and a pill or three
And I'm calling time and temperature just for some company"

Day 6
I have to get one of my favorites in. 15 Grammys along with many other awards. Not sure which song but I'll go with this John Prine song. It is one of her most popular. She really sounds good in this later version.

Probably another con like the Board of Peace that taxpayers will need to give another $10 billion.

I'll stay in Canada for this 4-time Grammy winner, 6-time Juno winner plus many others. This performance was at the Grammys in 1993 when she won the Best Female Pop Performance for this song.

Day 4
Keeping with a folky sound, these 2 sisters from Canada have won multiple Juno awards. This song from their debut probably sounds familiar to many, it was written by Anna.

Walkinβ around with no legs or faces must be tough.
I canβt listen to him.

Day 3
A change of pace to a lesser known artist. Winner at the GLAAD Media Awards, International Folk Music Awards and UK Americana Music Association Awards.
This song is 20 years old but is even more relevant today.

I bought a copy and still have it. Iβm not giving it up. I also have his second album too.
Agree. I love her voice. This song was on my list for last monthβs sad songs but there werenβt enough days in February so I rolled it into March.
Which is why the first round of bombing intentionally included a girls school.
Great old clip from the Midnight Special.
Loved that clip. I was thinking the same, he was singing and playing live. Midnight Special and Don Kirchnerβs Rock Concert on Friday nights were required viewing in those days before MTV and music videos.
"Makes it his own" is a nice way to say it.

Day 2
Want awards? 27 Grammys (tied #5 all-time, #2 female) plus another 30+ others including 15 IBMA awards (bluegrass).
As for the song, it was either this one or "Ghost In This House" which I also recommend.
www.youtube.com/watch?v=6o_H...
Love this song so much.
S. Gault, Unhinged (****): In form and content, Gault's third and best album nods to the heaviest parts of Lambert's landmark Crazy Ex-Girlfriend. If not up to that exact challenge-- who is?-- Gault acquits herself brilliantly on this lived-in set of ace covers (Buck Owens! In 2026!) and originals.
Thanks for this one. I really like it after a first listen.
