Ike And Tina Turner- Proud Mary

I'm a crazy huge fan of Creedence... I was listening to them all day today at work... but this version by Ike and Tina Turner... oh my! I have always just adored this and seeing her sing it on TV.

Holy cats!!! It took me 4 times to find the version I wanted! And even when I did find it, the quality went away when the song starts cookin' ...

There is a story that someone told Fogerty that Tina was going to take this song and make it hers. She succeeded. I wish I can remember who said that but i am old so....

Simon & Garfunkel - Cecilia​

I used to know a girl named "Cecilia" and on the bus coming home my friends and I would sing her name loudly to that tune while she tried to crawl under the seats.
