I haven't hear Janis in so long, until yesterday in "The Voice" a very cool lady sung "Piece of my Heart" she did great in my opinion, I got goosebumps.
So I have being singing it since then, I am driving my kids crazy, specially because I can't remember the whole song so I just keep singing the same part over and over, lol.
My favorites are "Piece of my Heart" and "Cry Baby".

What can I do next?

I was never real real fond of Janis Joplin but did like Bobby McGee.. and then last year Chrystal on American Idol sounded so much like her, and I sorta got to thinking how good Janis really was way back then. Still like the song.

I Love Bobby McGee - it very sign-along-able. :)
But my all time favorite Joplin song is White Rabbit with Janis and Jefferson Airplane.

I have been listening to her for over 20 years - she was one of my favorites when I was growing up.

Think I need to go play some music now.

God Bless and Happy Listening

I saw that as well and thought she did a great job. I've always loved that song! I also love Bobby McGee. Tragic she (Janis) didn't live longer.
