GodDAMNit!  They played the wrong version of "Doctor My Eyes" -- Jackson Browne instead of Jackson Five. Boo! Hiss!  Sorry, Gaz.
They're doing the same thing to "Why Can't We Live Together," playing some awful house-collage remix.

VHM Sweet, "Blockbuster", their follow-up to "Little Willy", it never took hold over here.

I actually like that version (it gets regular play on CGSS) but yeah, it's wrong for '73.

Ooh!  "That's When the Music Takes Me."  I wonder what happens when David Geffen takes him.

Ewww. That's a visual that may just put me off lunch today.

I'm at the end of the countdown and eagerly await your remaining comments...  say, if "Feel the Noise" were the name of a porn mag, then "Cum on Feel the Noise" would take on a whole diff meaning  :D

"Nice One, Cyril"?  English drinking songs are strange.

In this case, two, as reminded by our dreadful and dreck-ful "Long-Haired Lovah."

well, but that's of US origin. I'm thinking of those football anthems and comedy records (Benny Hill charted regularly in the '70s) that were forever keeping "real" songs out of the #1 spot over there.

This cover of "Baby, I Love You" has the most obnoxiously Christmassy sleigh bells I've ever heard in a non-Christmas song.  All the more bizarre for a March countdown heard in a particularly hot July.

It's your fave guy, Dave Edmunds!  ;)  I do prefer the Andy Kim version.

Meanwhile, I've switched over to WLNG and I'm rewarded with Cher's fab gender-bending "You Better Sit Down, Kids".

"I'll still be your dad."  No wonder Chastity was confuzzled.
