Lou Reed shines a satellite of love, then Neil seeks his heart of gold.  Fitting Monday morning maniac music.
“The choir of children sing their song.  They've practiced all year long.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.”

All come, Yes look for America.  Maybe they should've turned left at the topographic ocean.
“The choir of children sing their song.  They've practiced all year long.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.”

Oh My! Miss Flack, the first time ever this song's been on a 10@10.
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

BOS and easily Most Unexpected of Set: Roberta Flack's "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face."  I understand why this song doesn't work for everyone, but I have particular sense-memory associations with it.

The Bellamy Brothers kind of recycled this "Listen to the Music" guitar line for "Let Your Love Flow," no?

Totally. And it was much-remarked-upon at the time.

BOSes to Bowie and Mr Newman.

"Let's drop the big one and see what happens," said George, er, Randy.

ETA: I didn't know James Taylor was also on "Heart of Gold."
