One of my very favorite openings of all time (though it's drowned out by the applause here), and a good job singing a tough vocal live:

The Toys, "Lovers' Concerto"

A small handful of people know that Terry Jacks ("Seasons in the Sun") had a #2 hit four years prior with his then wife Susan as the Poppy Family ("Which Way You Goin' Billy?," a song that might be about a soldier choosing the Vietnam War over his wife but which I find more interesting to interpret as about a guy leaving his wife for another man.  And an even smaller handful know that the Poppy Family aimed at the charts a few times, including this shoulda-been-a-bigger-hit:

The Poppy Family, "Where Evil Grows"

I think of it as what would have happened if Buckingham and Nicks had grown up in Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan.

A longtime guilty pleasure of mine, made all the guiltier by this clip from the film (?) Fireball Jungle:

Mercy, "Love Can Make You Happy"

indeed, a cheapie race-car flick from '69. This from a review on IMDB:

"The film features the oldies warhorse, "Love Can Make You Happy" by Mercy (billed here as The Mercy Group). When I knocked around Tampa/St Pete in '92(?), the Sunday paper ran a puff piece on the composer. As the story goes, the film's producer drafted his teenage son to concoct a love song...a queer notion, given that hardly a smooch is exchanged in what amounts to 90 minutes of antisocial behavior. At the time of the article, the song still earned him five-figures in annual royalties, as he fronted a lounge band, dreaming of a comeback."

The State of the Union:

Alice Cooper (and unidentified Muppet), "You and Me"

(PS: I just realized, that's the melody of the Partridge Family's "I'll Meet You Halfway"!)
