eek, F.Mac's "Hold Me" is also an uber-LN at this point.

Care to wager on whether this takes the GS BOS vote? Quite a few folks over there think Stevie and Lindsey et al walk on water.

Not even close. Eight votes for the Big Mac, and a 3-way tie for second at two votes apiece.

No amount of snark can change the fact that "Hold Me" is pure crystalline perfection of pop, that still sounds great.  I will continue to enjoy it!

I agree that Hold Me is both a great pop song and uber-LN.  It's also in fairly rarified air as
a FF, with about two dozen spins on 10@10.  I haven't stumbled across many songs in the 20+
range.  Perhaps I should start making note of them.  Anyway, today's set was so uninspired that
this was one of the bright spots, such as it was.
