Wk2 - 2 DB Quickies: CD Ownership, Music Sharing or Spontaneous Listening

Topic A: Do you remember the first song/artist that touched you on an emotional level, not just a catchy tune, but something that sank in under the skin?

The first song that really touched me on an emotional level and sank under my skin was "A Home Is Not A Home" by the great, late Luther Vandross. I remember my mother crying once when I was little after she and my father had an argument. I later found out that my father was moving out of our home and they were no longer going to be together. That song came on on the radio and my mother broke down into tears. It was the words to the song that made me cry shortly after missing my father. Even as a little girl of age six, the words to that song was so profound and the message was loud and clear.

@ Jeff, I don't mind so much buying an album with the same song but what does bother me is buying an album with the same song being song by another artist. If an artist is going to remake an oldie but goodie, at least make it better than the first.
