I'm sure "Pride" is LN for some, but for me, I always think of the birth of our third child, Sonja.  Grace, the middle child (almost 2 yrs old) instantly recognized the song from the first notes.

I prefer Moms Mabley of course, but still like the schmaltzy Dion.  Nice bass line.

JT sheds a little light, another one that made its 10@10 debut last year.

I wonder who he's singing with. It's a weird arrangement, like he's guest-starring on Glee.

Ha! I had the same thought.  They seem a little too white to be a gospel choir.

Seems like a pretty damn good set - I'll try to catch the replay. I don't know that I'd call the U2 track LN... more like "overly obvious, but certainly appropriate".
