Same here. I was thinking them, but the vocals are a little rough for Ms Fraser. I can't make out a single word, so it's hard to Google it.

ETA: It's them. "Penny penny penny" was enough to produce "Pearly Dewdrops Drops".

indeed. I don't hate this one as much as some folks do, but it's very unnecessary at this point.

"No Parking..." is Midnight Starr.

BOS4 Ms Lauper's fine cover of "Money Changes Everything".

after a bad start this has turned out pretty good.

I didn't know this was a cover. Sounds very Bruce. Who does the original?
