Cool. One song that is not a totally obvious selection (release dates notwithstanding).

Don't you want the Spirit of '68 (1st Renee 10@10), baby?

OK this is just nuts. We get "Don't You Want Me" because it has a UK release date of late '81 (even tho' it didn't hit here until spring '82)... and now we get John's "Starting Over" -- a late '80 US release. Make up your mind, Renee.

Were Morey and Annalisa consistent in their methodology in this regard?

DM would error on the side of release date, AL a little less so. Once in awhile they'd make a flat-out mistake (And I know that DM admitted as much on at least one occasion, when he played U2's "Trying To Throw Your Arms Around The World" as part of a 1987, while the song was off "Achtung Baby"). AL would cheat here and there to get a soundtrack tune it.

But neither would be this crazy about it.
