Was with you up until the Percy, which is (a) perhaps the most overplayed song ever, and (b) kinda not the kind of message I wanted to hear.


agreed, but you didn't really think he'd bypass this didja?

So what Otis will we get? I'm betting on "I've Been Loving You Too Long".

BOS to Sweet Tyrone.  "Baby Can I Change My Mind" was one of the first songs Dave introduced me to, back in October of 1996.  I remember grooving to it on my way outside for a Schwab fire drill one unseasonably warm morning.  Guy named Gil Barrett was able to hear my headphones and was grooving to it too.  A sweet memory.

my sentiments, exactly. i repeat, "ack!"


Yeah, I'm with ya, simply based on overexposure. Make that a 9-way tie. File Percy under "concessions to the taste of the average foghead."
Let's get right to it.

It's a "shaggy" dress?  Oh shit!  All these years I thought his was a "shabby" dress!  (3DN's was a "funky" dress.)

Was just about to say "Try a Little Tenderness" (honest!)--and now here it is.

Two of my favorite bands ever were on Atlantic, but I'm okay that we'll not be hearing from them this day.  Pretty great stuff so far...

Dazamn!  Most unexpected and gleefully inappropriate of set, the Persuaders!

so far, the only remake i can't place is the spinners tune. michael bolotin covered percy, annie lennox did "thin line," and the committments had the otis...
