Move Over - Janis Joplin

Move Over - Janis Joplin
3:43
Pearl, 1971
Written by Janis Joplin

These songs have Vs!

A terrific bluesy rocker, with Joplin's scratchy vocals belting out the lines.  The band is chugging along making sure you know it's there, with the bass and organ up top, but they don't detract or distract from Joplin's powerhouse voice. Janis wants the guy to make up his mind.  Stop playing around, be her man, or let her go.  She whoops, her voice soars and commands.  No subdued pleading here.
