Incongruous juxtaposition of the Week: "Ballad of John & Yoko" followed by "Ballad of the Green Berets" :o :o :o

Remarkable combos indeed.

Huey's got "Heart & Soul" -- and one of the best McCartney imitations (songwriting-wise) ever.

Heaven-ly stuff: "Heaven Must've Sent You", "Heaven Must Be Missing an Angel", and -- OMGWTF -- "Heaven on the 7th Floor" (Paul Nicholas version).

as good an example as any, of why this CBS-FM A-to-Z is so wonderful: the nine "Hello" songs (in reverse order, they were posted that way on the "just played" feature) --

BARBARA LEWIS  Hello Stranger
ALLAN SHERMAN  Hello Mudduh, Hello Fadduh 
RICK NELSON  Hello Mary Lou
TODD RUNDGREN  Hello It's Me 
DOORS  Hello, I Love You
BEATLES  Hello, Goodbye  
LOUIS ARMSTRONG  Hello, Dolly! 
NEIL DIAMOND  Hello Again
LIONEL RICHIE  Hello

and for you alphabetization junkies: The Beatles' "Help!" came LAST in the "Help" section (presumably because of the exclamation point?)

Yeah, that's how automated ABCization would sort it.
