7 June 2013: it's... 1968

Renee sez The Moodies beat Aretha and TJ/Shondells for BOS by one vote.

Is it me, or does it seem like quite often the BOS winner (according to RR), is one of the last couple of songs in the set? If so, I suspect something funny is going on.

Without verifying it, the trend that I think I've seen is that BOS seems to go to one of the most
overplayed and LN-y songs of the set.  I used to vote for BOS occasionally when AL played
something that really moved me.  I haven't been so moved in over a year.

certainly not true Thursday. (the overplayed LN part!)

Well, I did say trend as opposed to a "rule," for example, "any song by the Grateful Dead or a
member thereof will most likely win BOS."
