Hello and Help!
I need to quit trawling the net and go to bed....you are my last hope.
Does anyone remember a 'song' that was actually a female vocalist sort of screaming? Oldish hippies are more likely to know the answer to this and I need to know cos I can't stop fretting about it. confused
Am now off to bed safe in the knowledge that Gransnet won't let me down.

Gosh there must be dozens of those. Anything by Janis Joplin perhaps?

Yoko Ono grin

Kate Bush - Cathy?
Minnie Riperton - Loving you?

Excepting in "Me and Bobby McGee" - she didn't screech in this one (Janis I mean):

Why would you want to know about this awful sounding song?confused

On Pink Floyds "Dark Side of the Moon" one track does have a female vocalist and part of it does include sort of screaming, but then it settles down.

BTW I'm not an old hippy! smile

Although it's not "hippy-type" music, could it be "Ride on Time" Black Box?

Do you mean that sexy one "Je t'aime - moi non plus"? Jane Birkin.

Ana Sun 04-May-14 20:12:30

Don't think there was any 'screaming' on that one, Tricia! grin
A bit of moaning, maybe...

AGrandmaAgain please come back and tell us if any of these suggestions are right!

(My money's on Pink Floyd)
