Robert Palmer -Mercy Mercy Me
Marky Mark & The Funky Bunch -Good Vibrations
Extreme -Hole Hearted
Divinyls -I Touch Myself
Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers -Learning To Fly

Kudos on Mr Palmer's fine Marvin cover (actually a medley with "I Want You"). Again, a nice balance of pop and rock that AL's '90s sets could benefit from. Mmmmm... Marky Mark... grabbing his, er, funky bunch.
