It was not originally done by Janis Joplin But I think she captured or gave the best twist to song until Melissa Etheridge coved it a few years ago on TV.

So it’s your Call
Piece of my heart
By Janis Joplin
Or
Faith Hill
hahahahah Yeah, you're right about Axl. I never put the two together before, but you are right. Back in high school (which was when GnR was really big) I could do a really spot on impersonation of Axl Rose. This made me think about that and start laughing

Piece of my heart - I don't much like Faith Hill. Nothing against her music personally, just not my style. I've never heard her remake and by the gods I hope I never do. Janis is all kinds of awesome. I wouldn't say she was my idol, because of the alcohol and drugs, but man, what a voice.

I missed the Melissa Etheridge version too. Is it worth looking it up on iTunes or somewhere?
