Gov,t Mule & Dana Fuchs - Peace Of My Heart


Peace Of My Heart


"Piece of My Heart" is a song written by Jerry Ragovoy and Bert Berns and originally recorded by Erma Franklin in 1967. The song came to greater mainstream attention when Big Brother and the Holding Company covered the song in 1968 on their album Cheap Thrills and had a hit with it. The song has since been remade by several singers, including hit versions by Faith Hill in 1994 and Melissa Etheridge in 2005.

In 2004, the Big Brother and the Holding Company version of this song was ranked Number 344 on Rolling Stone's list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. The song is also included among The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's 500 Songs that Shaped Rock and Roll.

  1. Geweldige stem van Dana Fuchs.

    In de omschrijving van de song 'Peace Of My Heart' wordt tot mijn verbazing Janis Joplin helemaal niet genoemd. Zij zong dit lied op het inmiddels legendarische Woodstock Festival in 1969!
