Thank you Mark! I just had to watch that again before even replying to your comment. I can think of no higher praise for a song than what that orchestra did with it.
Definitely Roy Orbison s In Dreams. For me: Kate Bush - Babushka if I absolutely had to choose among most of her work. Seven Aksu - Ben Kedim Yatağım. The Rolling Stones - Sympathy For The Devil. Bryan Ferry - Avalon. Ryuchi Sakamoto - Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence. The Clash - The Magnificent Seven. Hendrix - The Wind Cries Mary. Amy Winehouse - Love Is A Losing Game. The Cure - Pictures of You. Van Morrison - Into The Mystic. There are so many more. But want to keep it simple.
I could go on but saw there was a limited number. I also feel the same about Queen and Bohemian Rhapsody. Janis Joplin and Take a Little Piece of My Heart. 💜 Grace Jones & La Vie En Rose. Tears For Fears - It’s A Mad World. Quite challenging to limit the list but I get it.
Thank you for checking them out, Holly! I hope you'll stop by for Part 2. Meanwhile, I hope you are enjoying the start of the holiday season. My guess is if is already providing lots of ideas for you to write about! Good to have you back in circulation.
Cannot get enough of that era.
There are some fantastic songs on this list, particularly that live version of Whiter Shade of Pale, absolutely stunning! Looking forward to part 2!

Lot's of great artists and songs in your list. Thank you! Yes, "Sympathy" is not the Stones' most famous song but is it also my favorite.

Love Grace Jones for sure, and all that New Wave Era stuff.
Thanks for sharing these gems!
