Poll question: For his 58th birthday: Favorite AL GREEN song?

Edited on Tue Apr-13-04 06:33 PM by NightTrain

As I mentioned earlier, '70s soul sensation Al Green was born on April 13, 1946. What better a way to wish the man a happy birthday than with a DU poll dedicated to his ouevre?

And remember, folks: "other" is always an option!

8. Done!

Boy, for a song that flopped on its release, "Love and Happiness" sure has developed a loyal following! And deservedly so, I might add.

7. Me, my sweetheart and her cat all vote "Let's Stay Together"

Edited on Tue Apr-13-04 06:36 PM by undisclosedlocation

Long ago, I mentioned on DU that my girlfriend sings this song to her cat, who is enraptured every time, and another (the other?) Columbia SC DUer remarked that she sang it to her dog with the same effect. I'm figuring it has to do with all the high notes, but maybe animals just have superior taste in music. What do y'all think?

Edit: or maybe it's just in Columbia! :)
