Come and get it! No, really, it's Badfinger, "Come And Get It".

I would prefer Badfinger!

Well, he wrote both songs.  I think "Every Night" is a highlight of McCartney -- Phoebe Snow's cover of it rules.

VHM the original Coke commercial version of "Teach the World to Sing". The current revival (in the commercial for Coke Zero with the dorky white guy trying to sound black) is annoying and offensive on so many levels I don't know where to begin.

I liked hearing "Every Night" & totally agree about the revival of the coke commercial.  Teach the world to 'chill' is such a lame marketing campaign even from the standpoint of marketing.

BOS Leon Russell, "Song For You". One of the most-covered songs of that era, no?

"I think I'm so-phisticated
And I'm so civilized
Like a good homo-sexual, er, -sapien..."

BOS2 Kinks, "Apeman".

And just recorded again, with Christina Aguilera on vocals for the new Herbie Hancock "I wanna pull a Santana" album.  My brother insists he's never heard the song in any version.

very appropriate: she's acted out her love on stages, with (a lot more than) ten thousand people watching...
