Since it's Pride month, this song was way way ahead of its time

Since it's Hanukkah, I figured I would post acts with significant Jewish presence. Some of these I knew about, and some I did not.


Lesley Gore


All four members of the Shangri-Las, the Weiss sisters, and the Ganser twins were Jewish


Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel are Jewish


Manfred Mann of the band of the same name



Mama Cass of The Mamas & the Papas


Marty Balin, Jorma Kaukonen of Jefferson Airplane


Howard Kaylen and Mark Volman of the Turtles


Guitarist Don Dannemann and drummer Marty Fried of The Cyrkle

Look up yonder in the sky, now what is that I pray?
It's a bird, it's a plane, it's a man insane, it's my President LBJ
He's flying high way up in the sky just like Superman
But I have got a little piece of kryptonite, yes I'll bring him back to land.

Said come out Lyndon with your hands held high
Drop your guns, baby, and reach for the sky
I've got you surrounded and you ain't got a chance
Gonna send you back to Texas, make you work on your ranch
Yeah, yeah, oh yeah.

He can call Super Woman and his Super Dogs
But it sure won't do him no good
Yeah, I found out why from a Russian spy
That he ain't nothing but a comic book.

We'll pull him off the stands and clean up the land
Yes, we'll have us a brand new day
What is more I got the Fantastic Four
And Doctor Strange to help him on his way.

Said: 'Come out Lyndon with your hands held high'
'Drop your guns, baby, and reach for the sky'
'We got you surrounded and you ain't got a chance'
'Gonna send you back to Texas make you work on your ranch'
Yeah yeah, oh yeah.

Yeah, gonna make him eat flowers...


We have a Doctor Strange around here, don't we? :) Maybe not in this particular thread.

On peut vivre sans richesse
Presque sans le sou
Des seigneurs et des princesses
Y'en a plus beaucoup
Mais vivre sans tendresse
On ne le pourrait pas
Non, non, non, non
On ne le pourrait pas

On peut vivre sans la gloire
Qui ne prouve rien
Être inconnu dans l'histoire
Et s'en trouver bien
Mais vivre sans tendresse
Il n'en est pas question
Non, non, non, non
Il n'en est pas question

Quelle douce faiblesse
Quel joli sentiment
Ce besoin de tendresse
Qui nous vient en naissant
Vraiment, vraiment, vraiment
Dans le feu de la jeunesse
Naissent les plaisirs
Et l'amour fait des prouesses
Pour nous éblouir
Oui mais sans la tendresse
L'amour ne serait rien
Non, non, non, non
L'amour ne serait rien

Un enfant vous embrasse
Parce qu'on le rend heureux
Tous nos chagrins s'effacent
On a les larmes aux yeux
Mon Dieu, mon Dieu, mon Dieu
Dans votre immense sagesse
Immense ferveur
Faites donc pleuvoir sans cesse
Au fond de nos coeurs
Des torrents de tendresse
Pour que règne l'amour
Règne l'amour
Jusqu'à la fin des jours
