And I'll be right here reading it

This thread's introduced to so many good songs, in some cases songs that have gone on to be absolute favourites of mine (the Younghearts' a Little Togetherness for example). Looking forward to your next update.

So far in this thread, I think "Nothing Can Stop Me" is my favorite song because I like songs that tell stories. Also, I like P. P. Arnold's wavery, sweet, softer version of The Rolling Stones' "As Tears Go By."

I definitely find that (of those posted) I prefer the sadder songs to the peppier, happier ones...although watching the Japanese youth dancing was fun! Also, I prefer the songs that don't have romantic love as the main topic. For example, "Nothing Can Stop Me" deals with self-respect (albeit in a romantic love relationship).

I'll be curious to hear more songs that people post, since I'm not familiar with Soul.

A glorious batch of unearthed soul and funk from the early 70s central Ohio scene -- the storming singles of Prix label -- culled from ultra rare 45s plus previous unreleased gems! Prix was the imprint started to release work captured at Columbus's Harmonic Sounds studios commercially -- pummeling funk, uptempo harmony soul, some heavy organ groovers and beyond -- work by the Royal Esquires, Eddie Ray, Joe King, Marion Black and others. Most of the tracks were cut in the first few years of the 70s -- at a time when when central Ohio was producing soul and funk as mighty as the bigger midwestern cities of Detroit, Memphis and Chicago -- standing just as tall even if it didn't get over as well in the marketplace! 19 tracks in all -- 11 of which were issued as Prix 45s in the early 70s, plus 8 more tracks that were never officially released -- culled from finished masters, demos and other studio material that was only recently discovered! Titles include "Wait A Minute", "You Got Me" and more by Eddie Ray, "Mystic" and "Mister Kidneys" by OFS Unlimited, "Speak On Up" and "Your My Everything" by Joe King, "Ain't Gonna Run" by Royal Esquires, "Listen Black Brother" by Marion Black, "Melon Jelly" by Soul Ensemble, "I'm Gonna Gitcha" by Chip Willis & Double Exposure and more, plus 4 "extended play" bonus tracks by Eddie Ray, Harmonic Sounds Band and Penny & The Quarters
Wonderful!

I came across this Penny & The Quarters track called "You and Me" a couple months ago after watching the film Blue Valentine. I'm sure many others have/will come across this tune after watching the film.

The film was very good but this track blew me away. There is something about the way she sings thw word "Again" after "If I never see the setting sun"
