HM for rarity: Robert Palmer's "Mercy Mercy Me / I Want You" medley (my introduction to the latter!).
“The choir of children sing their song.  They've practiced all year long.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.  Ding dong.”

When it first came out, a Pittsburgh secretary-pop station gave it a few spins.

BOS DM, "P.O.T".

ditto!

WTF?

Track 2 was Depeche Mode, "Policy of Truth."

Ah, thank you. Much appreciated for the illumination.

Kind of digging this Robert Palmer Marvin Gaye medley, but I could swear Todd Rundgren used to play the same medley in his live shows.  I know I've heard him do Mercy Mercy Me.
Let's get right to it.

Me neither, BOS #4 I believe.

well, they deserve kudos. It pretty much fell by the wayside. A fine album overall.  I suspect if Mr Palmer had lived, he'd be getting around to covering "Sexual Healing" about now.

BOS #5 Sundays.  Hard to believe I got all the way up to 5 BOS votes today, but kudos to Ginger.

That Sundays track can ONLY occupy the #10 position.  For at least a couple years I thought it was the Cranberries.

ditto -- I was actually going to comment that that was the ubiquitous female soundalike voice of the time. The Corrinne Colbie Feist of the early '90s, if you will.

actually I won't - Corrinne Colby Feist are the Dolores O'Riordan/Harriet Wheeler/Tanya Donnely of the mid-aughts, not the other way around.
