Possibly THE song of the later 60s!


An interesting factoid...Doug Ingle, the original keyboard player, was the son of a church organist. You can hear that in their music very clearly. Second factoid...In A Gadda Da Vida is actually a slurring of the original lyrics, "In the Garden of Eden," which makes sense.

Never heard that song before. Definitely unique. I only made it to the 7-ish minute mark.:ohwell: But to be honest, even a 17 minute Bon Jovi song would likely be too long for me. :paperbag:

Speaking of Bon Jovi, I haven't posted anything from them for a bit. They don't fit the 60's British Invasion theme. :lol: But I think I can find something for the fire theme. 🔥

I had suggested an elements theme last year which fire would fit under, but just fire is good, too!
Welcome back, Lari Lari And, BTW, I never forgot your elements theme suggestion. It, and 10 others, are still waiting in the wings. We may exhaust the fire theme now, but save your "earth, wind and water" songs for later.

Bon Jovi has some original songs to fit the Fire theme, but let's start with this live cover.

Great Balls of Fire - Bon Jovi (Jerry Lee Lewis cover)

And the original version...

Edit: found a better Jerry Lee Lewis version to post

Oh yeah. Jon Bon Jovi is quite fiery. So is Richie. 🔥

I was going to ask- what are the "elements"? I went to a country bumpkin school out in the boonies so I might not be smart enough for that icon. :lol:

I always liked this fiery duet with my other boyfriend Enrique Iglesias:

You say you don't love me
You can't hide your desire
'Cause when we kiss
Fire

Fire by Enrique Iglesias & Tom Jones

This Robbie song makes me feel all happy & cozy. That last line is my favorite:

Lay down all your troubles end to end
They could reach up to the stars
So many roads, you don't know where you've been
But you still know who you are

Or you don't play enough video games, lol. (She says as she's been playing a game her brother lent her for the trip that involves elemental crystals and saving the world)
