Urusei Yatsura :
The album / song is so obscure that I can't even find a video on YT for the song, just the album.
The link will start at the right song.

Nick Nicely | Hilly Fields

Bad Cop, Bad Cop - Joey Lawrence

(Also, the version of Umbada I'd recommend is the version from the Festival da Cancao, but the version you included is fine as well)

Since this website is the reason I found this singer - I figure that's as good a reason to nominate for this game.


David by Nellie McKay.

Led Zeppelin - The Ocean

France Gall - Poupée de cire, poupée de son

Yeah, it’s silly, but I enjoy it. Not everybody sees it as just a joke.

Curtis Mayfield - Move On Up (Extended Version)(of course)

Terence Trent Darby - 'Billy Don't Fall'

Hey Spiritualized, I like the AM rank that you added. Just one more step in the process for you that adds time, (I'm sure), but it's really cool to ponder the worldwide critics' collective placements against tracks that didn't place as high, (or not at all), and wonder why. Nice job!

A pleasure to see you approve I always try to improve things to keep them fresh and interesting. This change seemed pertinent.
