Jefferson Airplane: Somebody to Love
“Somebody to Love” is a famous rock song by the American rock band Jefferson Airplane, released in 1967. It was written by band member Darby Slick and originally recorded by his group The Great Society, but it gained greater recognition when Jefferson Airplane included it on their album “Surrealistic Pillow.”
The song’s powerful and distinctive vocals, led by Grace Slick, and its driving rhythm contributed to its popularity during the counterculture movement of the 1960s. The lyrics capture the desire for love and connection, reflecting the themes of the era.
“Somebody to Love” is often regarded as one of the defining songs of the psychedelic rock genre and remains an enduring symbol of the musical and cultural landscape of the 1960s.
