"MMMMBop" is a great pop single by any measure.

Lyrics were never Stevie Miller's strong suit.

Nope, but this is certainly a low point.

"Tubthumping" is also a pop masterpiece, IMHO -- though one that has become painfully overexposed  in the last 2 decades.

One of my favorite Karaoke songs - dial up the overblown English accent.

Sorry I missed the listening shindig. Am catching up now (without having read thru this thread for spoiler prevention) and I'm thinking this set must go to 11 or above, as we're into tune #8 and there's still 20 minutes to go.  Some FFs, but for evergreen sets like this, slack shall be granted.

One, two, tres, quatro!!

From where I sit, this was the only intrusion of a HFH in today's turkeys.

All in all a fine representation of the Turkey tradition. One bustout, so far as I can tell (Herman's Hermits) but overall a bunch of turkeys that Dave would be proud of.
