So do you really think we're gonna get a dose of Tyrone Davis?

Best Bass of Set: the opening to "What Does It Take."  I'll give this one Best Tambourine as well.  Amazing how something so lyrically minimal can have such emotional impact.

Can I change my prediction?  :D

I think Bob will come through. Though I'd really like to hear "Groovy Grubworm" by Harlow Wilcox.

VHM, "The Thrill Is Gone."  Whoever arranged those strings is a genius.

Suite Judy Mondegreen...

"Can I tell it like its
And listen to the butler"

several lyric sites show it as "but listen to me baby" but it sounds nothing like that. WTF?

BOS Zombies commercial! ROTFL!

I don't recognize this psychedelic-pop thing, but now I know where Smash Mouth learned their entire schtick.

Love how it's common in Brit syntax to end all statements, with a question.

"That George Bush is really a twit, izzen 'e?"

"Those Americans must really be gullible, doncha think?"
Let's get right to it.
