My brother lost his leg last year and had to come live with me. When he first got his prosthetic leg, he told me looked like joe cocker. I was all wtf? Then I saw him walk for the first time and by God he did look like old joe, spazzy arms and all. That's what I'll always think of when I see joe sing.

I saw him live the first time as a teenager and then again about 3 years ago and he still had it. Seemed like a really cool dude too.

"Up Where We Belong" - Cocker sang the duet with Jennifer Warnes. The song charted #1 on Billboard, won a Golden Globe, and an Academy Award. And I really love the movie. Hearing the song instantly takes me back to being in high school. The video has a bunch of scenes from the movie (including the incredibly cute Lisa Eilbacher).
