Dionne appears to provide local (SJ) color.
You spin me right 'round, baby, right 'round

No clue! Was gonna ask...

ETA: The Stranglers do a cover. This could be it. Digging the psychedelic organ!

Isaac Hayes' version is my fave!

This was really a wonderful, varied set. And some of the FB folks really pissed me off "eww! it's boring! Wahhh! there's no Springsteen or Stones in this set!" Honestly if you can't appreciate classic songwriting why are you even listing to 10@10? Sheesh.

Funny, I was just going to ask how somebody in particular responded to this set.  ;)

Was at an offsite meeting (which was in fact rather boring). Looking forward to the replay.

yeah, not the greatest version. I was hoping for the Costello cover but we got him doing "Never Fall in Love..." instead. And of course Dusty's take is sublime.  And then there's this fab Cissy Houston version:

I was listening to the rerun with an open mind, not realizing who I was listening to.  It really got irritating, so I looked it up.  I know the White Stripes are sacred, and I'm just a grumpy old man, but sheesh... what a way to ruin a great song!
