Very good point, Daniel. I'll try to keep any less than favorable opinions to myself. And in that vein I won't explain formulaic.
Van Morrison was the originator of this tune.
Such a happy ditty. I admit that this guy is new to me. Leave it at that.
It's one of Robert Cray's most memorable songs. First time I heard it the punch line rather took me aback.
Sure, it's OK. But the original is the one that comes to mind.
Talk about formulaic. Shouldn't point the finger at this group I suppose, thousands of artists and artiste manques are guilty of the same thing.

The above Graham Parker post deserves one that cheats a bit, because it's from years later. I am a stone Huey Lewis and the News fan, in fact I used...
If we're in a quotation mood I like this one that comes right before the preface of John LeCarre's "The Honorable Schoolboy:" I and the public know...
Thank you for posting this, ThunderRd. I was woefully unaware of Graham Parker. Shame on me!
Wowsa, this is an amazing song. It's heavy and a bit light. Well done, great choice!
Joan is really in her own class. I like the inventiveness in the second video you posted here. She can be pure soulfulness too.
Quite an "adult" song, as in it sure ain't teenagers in this tune. Here's another "adult" song, Miss Norah Jones: [media]
Credence is one of my most favored bands. I also very much like the work that John Fogerty put out after Creedence Clearwater Revival.
