"Get Ready", 'cause here your TOTHK comes! Rare Earth -- this musta been a late-'69 release; I tend to associate it with 1970

BOS guess who? no, really, the Guess Who, "No Time"

But BOS2 to Bob's McCain impression! (the first Ford Maverick rolled off the assembly line in '69; Bob said in a Mccain-y voice, "My friends... it's a Maverick!" LOL!)

And I've got no time for Steam -- "Na na etc" is easily the most overplayed oldie of that year.

VHM Crow's BS&T rip-off, "Evil Woman".

"Wickedness lies in your Martian lips" -- that mondegreen really made sense to me when I was 14!
