Moss Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 > In My Life - The Beatles So many Beatles work but that might be the best. His falsetto at the end just tears me up every time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dbf65 Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 In terms of The Band, I would say 'It Makes No Difference'. The Last Waltz version. The way Rick Danko sings the line 'I love you so much' gets me every time. Danko=heartbreaking. How about when he is listening to his song "Sip The Wine" in the studio next to Scorcese and just lowers his head seemingly overcome by his own song? Mesmerizing.

Scott Gyrrr Posted March 25, 2009 Share Posted March 25, 2009 the dark end of the street - james carr Have you heard the afgan whigs version of this? it was on an ep or single or something. I'd put it up there with the James Carr version which is saying alot I know. Arethas version never quite nailed it for me, seems to miss the mark emotionally. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
