#4: BJ, certainly makes sense for this to be in a Love Song Top 10.
gag me with a spoon!
I certainly don't need to hear it more than once a year, but I'll defend it vigorously as a piece of stellar, old-school songwriting. Sinatra covered it for a reason, and he was rather picky about "contemporary" tunes.
As to the Pretenders, it's one of their weakest, the-record-company-made-us-do-it tracks, tho Chrissie's vocal is fine -- she can sing the phone book. And iirc they didn't even write that one.
