Listening to, watching, and dancing to “Mustang Sally”, I got to thinking about how voices of singers (often better than me — my profoundly deaf friend doesn’t mind when I sing) sound so different in conversation and song.
My favorite version of “Mustang Sally” is the original — Wilson Pickett. My second fave is “Port Jefferson Station on Long Island” Simone Torres. More than 17 million views. (about 10 are mine).
Arnel Pineda or Steve Perry? This one’s a toss-up. My Philopena friend likes Steve Perry better. But Arnel has that crazy whirlwind energy, like David Lee Roth but this essay isn’t about the dancing. It’s about the voices.
