Talk:Piece of My Heart

cleanup tag
Would attempt to try cleaning the infobox(es), but first it'd help to know what the problem is... GassyGuy 00:15, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

This page requires the inclusion of a black female singer who did a rendidtion of "piece of my heart" in the late sixties, I remember hearing it on the radio. It use to be on youtube, but since then her version got burried from all those star search version rejects. She had a very soft voice similarly to Beverley Knight, but it can't be her because she was born in the 70's and wasn't old enough. It bugs me that i can't find her version. I always look towards Wiki to find the answers, but i'ts not there either. If I could remember her name it would be easy, but I can only remember by sound of the song, and its not Erma, Janice or the blonde lady. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.103.33.235 (talk) 00:18, 22 April 2015 (UTC)

Requested move 10 July 2015

 * The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section. 

The result of the move request was: not moved. Jenks24 (talk) 17:01, 18 July 2015 (UTC)

Piece of My Heart → Piece of My Heart (Erma Franklin song) – I originally performed this move myself but it was reverted, so I would like to see what other editors think. I moved it to the new name in the first place because, well, although it initially was the only song under this title with an article, now Piece of My Heart (Tara Kemp song) also exists (I'm not sure either article qualifies as a primary topic).  Erpert  blah, blah, blah... 00:17, 10 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Oppose This song is the WP:PRIMARYTOPIC of the base title and does not needed to be disambiguated. Aspects (talk) 05:26, 13 July 2015 (UTC)
 * Oppose. Preposterously uninformed proposal. One of the defining songs of 1960's music, a signature piece for Janis Joplin, Not since the brain-dead (and unanimously rejected) proposal to delete the Rolling Stones' classic "Dead Flowers" and replace it with a Miranda Lambert ditty have I seen so little understanding of musical history. Right now there are nearly five hundred incoming links to this page, orders of magnitude more than the articles for Tara Kemp, her sole album, and all her singles combined, making it unmistakeble which topic is primary. The Tara Kemp song article has 40 words of text and should probably redirected to the album article. And in the unlikely event that there's a consensus to move this article, it should DAB-d as a Jerry Ragovoy-Bert Berns song. The Big Bad Wolfowitz (aka Hullaballoo) (talk) 01:13, 17 July 2015 (UTC)

Au Pairs version
UK punk band the Au Pairs used to perform this song live regularly in the late 1970s and early 1980s.

They didn't record a studio version, but a live recording is included on the LP 'live in Berlin' and on the anthology LP Stepping Out of Line. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stepping_Out_of_Line:_The_Anthology

YouTube music has the track: https://music.youtube.com/watch?v=JVIEVetjTsw

This fanzine piece from 1982 refers to the live performance : > "Beyond this, Lesley’s got a remarkably powerful voice — she’s one of a few who can get away with covering ‘Piece Of My Heart’, a voice that has the caustic edge of a Rotten one minute, a thorough sensual purr that makes the hairs on my neck stand up the next."

This review from 'Record Mirror' dated April 1980 mentions Piece of my Heart as part of the set.
