    This hits close to home, because I've always wanted to sing. Of course, I'd rather have my own backups, but if I have to sing backup, anybody would be fine, as long as I like the music. (I have always envied backup singers, getting to be on stage with awesome performers. I always wonder if they talk to the performer a lot, know the performer well, joke around with the performer during rehearsals and before the show,,,)

    And I dream I'm on vacation 'Cause I like the way that sounds,
    It's a perfect occupation for me.

    How Long
    True Love
    You Belong To The City
    Smuggler's Blues
    Start Me Up - Rolling Stones
    Waiting On A Friend - Rolling Stones
    Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen

    Big Log - Robert Plant
    Hurtin' Kind (I've Got My Eyes On You) - Robert Plant
    Who Are You - The Who
    I'm Still Standing - Elton John
    I Love L.A. - Randy Newman

    And....

    Sultans Of Swing

    See-I'm never really done with my list because every time someone else post they remind me of another one I love. I'm glad I did this---you guys are all helping me to fill out my book.

    Soda---Always loved Where The Streets Have No Name and thought it would of been cool to have been there.

    Koala--Land Of Confusion is such a well thought out video. The puppets of Nancy & Ronald just cracked me up.
