"Last Whale" was a longtime Moreytrina, but I'll give it a pass today.

The theme for CBS Sports Spectacular for awhile. An ABC Wide World of Sports clip into this song would be a fun segue. Maybe it's been done before?

Bad Sneakers is the closest we've gotten to a rarity today (or maybe the Manfred Mann); otherwise it's been a very Moreyesque set.

Agree with everyone but Mike. 

I also like how it sounds lyrically (as opposed to the lyric content, to which I rarely pay much attention).  The internal rhymes and slant rhymes really work for me.

BOS for me.

Bustout, yes.  What I find even more surprising is that The Bruce's version has only appeared
once.  I thought I've heard it more often than that, but apparently it's been outside of 10@10.

Bad Sneakers has made regular appearences throughout the DM era -- about once a year -- as
well as February 20th of this year.
