Except for the TOTHK by Queen, a collection of uber-LNs, mostly. Pass.

Not really any need for Survivor. Most other songs are OK.

I'm pretty much in agreement with Dave. Thumbs down on the tigers and prayers, nor was I crazy about the uber-Katrina, but that could have just been a programmed response to its longstanding infamy among our group. Otherwise pleasant, not earth-shattering.

One thing I noticed was that I'm A Believer seemed to be an alternate take; some of the vocal phrasing seemed different than what I know from 80-bazillion spins back when I was 7.
Let's get right to it.

 1. Queen, Don’t Stop Me Now
 2. Abba, Dancing Queen
 3. The Beach Boys, Good Vibrations
 4. Billy Joel, Uptown Girl
 5. Survivor, Eye of the Tiger
