I Heard It Through the Grapevine - Creedence Clearwater Revival
I thought any version of a song was OK. I'm pretty sure I have posted versions of songs that weren't the original.Don't you mean Marvin Gaye? Love them but CCR's was just a cover.
Well, I wondered, and checked. Ended up listening to the CCR cover to verify that I liked it. So, we have to use the original artist? What if the artist isn't the song writer, can you use the writer's name instead? I already did, once; I said Rodgers and Hart.Don't you mean Marvin Gaye? Love them but CCR's was just a cover.
thank you. I responded to @taf2002 before I saw your post.I thought any version of a song was OK. I'm pretty sure I have posted versions of songs that weren't the original.
Back to the songs...
We Will Rock You -- Queen

By the way, I find that today the "Like" button is not showing up for me. So I can't "like" or "love" anything? I didn't change a setting, unless it was inadvertent. Anyone can help?
thank you for replying , both to you and to @skatingfan5I just noticed it is gone for everyone. First I thought something was wrong with My account.
That's kind of why I asked. I looked at the first post in this thread to read the "rules" for it, but this thread is a continuation so they weren't there.Of course you can use anything you want. In fact everyone & his dog has recorded that song. I especially like Gladys Knight's version. Marvin didn't even write it but he was first. I was just surprised you picked CCR's version. I wasn't trying to tell you what to do.
Speaking of how people post in this thread I am also surprised that some people pick a song/artist that doesn't mirror the one above it.
