Blog Posted:10/11/2014 2:30:00 AM

Do they even MAKE these anymore? Here are some of mine - If you want to watch them, just copy/paste the links onto the Internet...If and when you comment, feel free to post the links to yours as well...I would LOVE to see them! Thanks for watching (and listening} As always, your participation and comments are welcome - Tim

PS: If you have internet explorer, on some of these you may need to scan down past the pictures etc. to the first utube video you see....Thanks again

Billy Joel: Uptown Girl - GREAT song with very cool dancing...Christy Brinkley (his girlfriend) plays the 'Uptown Girl’

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hCuMWrfXG4E

Straight up: Paula Abdul - Another great dance video...Irresistible song with guest Arsenio Hall

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=El1kgCqD7Xk

Standing Knee Deep in a River: Kathy Mattea...One of my all-time favorite Country Music songs with my favorite lady of Country Music

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LfZ0e5Y5svU

With a Little Help From My Friends: Joe Cocker...When I first saw this, I thought this guy had what is now called ‘MS’ or ‘Lou Gehrig’s Disease’

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRzKUVjHkGk

Old Man River: Billy Stewart...One of the most unique voices ever. This is what is called ‘Carolina Beach Music’ or ‘Shag Music’...A dance invented in Myrtle Beach, S.C.

HaHa Tim, I know the song. I'm not much of a fan of Lou's or the song, however Nathan's a fan :) Thank you so much for tagging me with your thoughts. Linda

AN original version I meant...The original probably goes back before I was born and that's WAY back...

For those of you who may not know, Los Lobos did the soundtrack for the movie 'La Bamba' starring Lou Diamond Phillips. They performed the original folk version of the same... A must see movie!

I just called to say I love you -Song by Stevie wonder, Sand in my shoes by Dido,and We are the world by many famoud singers( For Haiti ).These own three of my many favourite music videos,and My heart will go on by Celene Dion (titanic love scene video clip ) .There is a maltese music video of a song called 'Tomorrow',by Gianluca Bezzina. Any more ? :.)

Ive been lucky enough to see Stevie in concert twice - an amazing humbling experience - I adore a track called Black Orchid from the secret life of plants Lp - its not a popular LP maybe thats why I love the track - got quite a bit of Stevie on CD hes inspirational:-) hugs jan xxx

Tim Ryerson
Date: 10/11/2014 6:59:00 PM

Thanks my friend! I love EVERYTHING by Stevie and I've seen 'We Are the World' many times. Celene has a voice like an angel...Have you ever heard her version of 'Oh Holy Night?'

A really good one if you like funny is Weird Al's parody of MJ's BAD. It's called FAT. Just go to youtube and type in FAT by WEird Al. WEird Al has tons of funny ones.

I love music videos. You BET they are still making them. Youtube has millions of them. I teach a song class for ESL electives, and every week I find my favorites to show the students! Too many to name them all, Tim. My favorite is the one that our class made with the rap song and I got to be in it!

Johnny Cash - Hurt. I like his version much better than NIN's version. Shinedown - I'll follow you.

For me its got to be Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen - was lucky enough to win tickets to see them at Knebworth park in 1986 - best gig of my life:-) Hugs jan xxx

Tim, If I were to pick a tune for you, it would be the theme from "Jaws" in honor of that great limerick you wrote! Indeed, they needed "A bigger Boat~"

Carolyn Devonshire
Date: 10/11/2014 6:39:00 AM

Tim, Hope you'll watch that Little Big Town Video. One of the best I've seen and I just pulled an all-nighter on youtube. Excited about the Seminole game at noon. LSU's had better years, but they'll be back!

Very nice songs in your collection. Liked Joe Cocker the best. Here are two of my favorites. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I8xW2nkGMMw “Best Vocal Performance” Grammy winner Jason Mraz and four female musicians sing a song that’s been hailed by environmentalists – “Back to the Earth” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GgVw4xLuV1s David Cooke sings “Music of the Night” from Phantom of the Night. Enjoyed this blog a lot!

Tim Ryerson
Date: 10/11/2014 6:49:00 PM

Thanks for the input Diane...Like Mr. Cocker, I had 'a little help from my friends' when I saw the movie. It was a long time ago...

Carolyn Devonshire
Date: 10/11/2014 6:30:00 AM

I love the Mraz song. The entire "Yes" album is outstanding. He does wonders vocally. Don't know how he shifts so easily into falsetto. And I love everything David Cooke sings too.

Great songs you selected, Tim. First time I saw Billy Stewart. I do my own concert nights and here are my top four. First one is a MUST SEE-very funny!: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B077Dw_zDe0 Little Big Town’s “Take Me Down to the Little White Church” (Keep an eye on what the bride’s mother is doing) A hoot! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4B_UYYPb-Gk See Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler break down the wall Competing with the group RUN-DMC to sing “Walk This Way” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KrZHPOeOxQQ Bon Jovi goes wild with “You Give Love a Bad Name” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y0tGNOWvC1k Sonia Dada on Santa Monica Pier Friends get a kick out of this

Tim Ryerson
Date: 10/11/2014 6:42:00 PM

Hilarious video Carolyn! (Little Big Town) A friend of mine's has 'Pontoon' as a ring tone on his cell...Those guys are what I call 'Funky Country'...'Shut Up and Dance' is my favorite Aerosmith song

The first time I heard this Bread song, I was in the radio station with my late husband. We both loved it and it brings back memories of a wonderful night. I think you'll remember this, Andrea.

This whole album is wonderful! Bought it back I the '80s. Song has a catchy beat and you can hear the Australian accents. Very cool!
