Not wearing crankypants today, but still, WOS to "Did You Ever Have to Make Up Your Mind," which I've just never cared for.

Oh, but I love that dirty water" HM to the Standells (who I just learned from a trivia contest had a big hit with this in LA long before Boston adopted it).

don't forget the New Wave version by the Inmates ("down by the banks of the river Thames...")

BOS3 a poet and a one-man-band.

HM to "She Said She Said," though it's one of the lesser tracks from Revolver (my favorite Beatles album, and in my all-time top 3).

Don't often hear hear "Roadrunner," the song that Steve Winwood was alleged to have ripped off for "Roll WIth It."  I hear a similarity but don't wish to apply the "ripoff" tag.
