Janis Joplin - Little Girl Blue

I read somewhere that this version was adapted from a version by Nina Simone, which makes sense considering that Janis Joplin was a beatnik chick before she became famous. Listening to La Simone was a rite of passage for such, as she was an icon of tough female cool in a world dominated by the likes of Mrs. Cleaver. The song is by Rodgers and Hart, and Lorenz Hart, who wrote the words, knew from outsiderdom. I'd say "enjoy," but it's a little grim for that.
