Paul McCartney made a surprise appearance at Friday night's Billy Joel concert at Shea Stadium in New York. It was the last time a major rock show will ever take place at the home of the Mets - they're moving across the street into Citi Field next season - and the first time McCartney played the Queens stadium since the Beatles were there in 1964. Joel joined him on "I Saw Her Standing There" and a plaintive "Let It Be," which ended the show. Other guests included Roger Daltrey, Steven Tyler and Garth Brooks. Watch "Let It Be"

One of the highlights of every Brazilian Girls concert is "Pussy Marijuana." In this clip, lead singer Sabina Sciubba lights a joint and shares it with more than a dozen people on stage before breaking into a long version of the song, which repeats the seductive and nonsensical line, "Pussy pussy pussy, marijuana."

The first song written specifically about and in support of the Democratic Presidential candidate, "Barack Obama" has a jaunty reggae bounce and cleverly repeats the Senator's name. Jamaican MC Cocoa Tea has recorded nearly 20 albums since 1986. His last was Save Us Oh Jah in 2006.

Recorded live at last weekend's Rock in Rio festival in Lisbon, Amy Winehouse could barely sing along to Sam Cooke's "Cupid," which received the reggae treatment. Look for Wino's cuts and bandages, blank stares and little hop steps. She also fidgets with her dress a lot. Perhaps Wino's next cover should be "She's Not There." Watch "Cupid"
