BOS1 "Q's 67&68"

OTOH, waiting until the last second to shout out a title that appears nowhere in the lyrics seems a bit of a cheat.

BOS2 Sly, "HFITS", appropriate for the Bay Area today.  "Ah Cloud 9 when ah want to!"

WOS Beatles, "I Want You" -- ponderous and interminable.

Rescued from ponderousness by its polar opposite: "Build Me Up Buttercup", the Foundations copping a melody from the 4 Tops' "I'll Turn to Stone".  VHM

more Beatles, via Zho Co-Kair: "... Bathroom Window".  Leon Russell on piano, I'm assuming.

Bob makes us eat Crow! "Evil Woman (Don't Play Your Games With Me)", a welcome rarity. BOS3.

"Wickedness lies in your moistened lips"  -- apropos of the recent mondegreen discussion, I always thought he was saying  "...Martian lips"!
