Reddit - Dive into anything

While Thong Song isn't among my top 100 songs of 1999, it's very effective in transporting me back to 1999. I just crack up at the YT comments, like "He sang like his life depended on it!"

What other songs come to mind that share that kind of intensity?

Is there a live performance that you keep going back and watching?

discussion

Every once in a while I get that itch to go back and watch Prince play guitar in the George Harrison tribute, “While My Guitar Gently Weeps,” where Prince just nails the solo, or Shane Hawkins playing “My Hero” with the rest of the band at his fathers tribute concert. It’s moments like these that can bring me to tears, and also show how awesome music is and how emotional it can be. What do you always go back to watch again?
