Carol Kaye actually played the studio bass guitar on the Beach Boys Good Vibrations recording and on most of their other songs.

Mary Bridget Davies- Wanna Feel Something
 


A song from our album 'Scars in Soft Places'

In loving memory of beautiful Trigger, a much loved family pet dog killed by BSL in 2013. This song is to honour his family's struggle to save him. Rest in peace precious one, you were loved xx

'In my Heart'

You were my friend, my rock of ages
Always close there by my side
Four years blessed, we turned the pages
Our little book of fireside

You knew my ways and how to comfort
You sat by me and me by you
Love is precious, love is perfect
You gave your all to help me through

And I, I couldn't save you
And I, I tried to save you

They took you for the way you looked
Dragged you from my breaking heart
Ripped the pages from our book
And kept us far, so far apart

I fought the law I fought the system
I fought for you as mothers do
I fought because I thought they'd listen
I cried and fought and cried for you...

And I, I couldn't save you
And I, I tried to save you

I stood beside you one last memory
To say goodbye and keep you near
My special one, you'll never leave me...
And none shall ever hurt you here

You're in my heart my loyal angel
We battled on until the end
I keep you where all prayers are sacred
For none can break the bond of friends

And I, I couldn't save you
And I, I tried to save you
And I, I couldn't save you
And I, I tried to save you...

Widespread Panic - Meeting Of The Waters
 


A song from our album 'Music United For Animals'

'I Don't Wanna Fight No More'

I don't wanna fight no more
But I am a growling gun
My battle scars are scars on scars
They won't let me run

It's true I bite and kill n' maim
It's all I know this fighting game
From very small I learned it all
And it's me they blame

And if I could I'd turn away
Never fight another day
N' sometimes when they set me up
I long to be a playful pup
Cos I don't wanna fight no more...

I'm bitten, chewed and ragged raw
What I do they still want more
Blood n' guts and all I am
Lay me down away from harm

Rub my back and clean my wounds
Take me from this killing room
Oh hurry boys I've had my day
Leave me now to fade away...

Cos I don't wanna fight no more
But I am a growling gun
My battle scars are scars on scars
They won't let me run

And I don't wanna fight no more
No I don't wanna fight no more
No I don't wanna fight no more
I don't wanna fight...

I don't wanna fight no more
I don't wanna fight no more
Oh I don't wanna fight no more
I don't wanna fight...

Life After Death

 
I've a friend who somehow was unfamiliar with Queen and with Elton John until the recent films came out, and I spent time last night going through my library and making her an Elton John CD for her car. The only songs she knew were "Your Song" and "Crocodile Rock." :shock:



Stevie Wonder's harmonica!



The tap-dancing at the end!

 
I liked some of Queen’s songs from radio play; after the very well done bio-pic, I got a new appreciation for them. I have liked Elton since one summer, I heard “Our House.” That had to be mid 1960s......




Edit: the song I remember is “Your Song” It says it was released in 1970, but I remember it earlier.........now where are my car keys?

You made me look, and I'm glad because I didn't know about Three Dog Night here:

"Your Song" is a song composed and performed by English musician Elton John with lyrics by his longtime collaborator, Bernie Taupin. It originally appeared on John's eponymous second studio album (which was released in 1970). The song was recorded at Trident Studios, London in January of 1970 and released in the United States in October 1970 as the B-side to "Take Me to the Pilot". Both songs received airplay, but "Your Song" was preferred by disc jockeys and replaced "Take Me to the Pilot" as the A-side, eventually making it to number eight on the Billboard chart. The song also peaked at number seven on the UK Singles Chart, as well as charting in the top 10 in several other countries.

"Your Song" was first released by American rock band Three Dog Night in March 1970 on their third studio album, It Ain't Easy. John was an opening act for the band at the time and allowed them to record it. They did not release it as a single as they wanted to let John, then an upcoming artist, have a go with it.

Yes, I was educated as well. I was in a summer camp in Tom’s River, NJ. We listened to a NY radio station and I remember Elton John songs being played. I may have the song wrong, but the year is right. WABC, I think was the AM station. I wasn’t aware of the Three Dog Night connection either...........long time ago! Cheers!
