I did vote for Superstar but I also like a little known song called The Piano Picker-song by Richard.

I'm not sure of the title of this song, but the chorus goes, "Don't you remember you told me you love me, baby? Baby, baby, baby, baby, oh baby...I love you, I really do...) Anyway, whatever this song is called, gets my vote.

I think Karen Carpenter had a fantastic voice, and that she and her brother were great songwriters. My only beef with the Carpenters is that I think that the way their songs were arranged (in particular, the backing vocals) made them sound a little sappy.

Touch Me When We're Dancing wasn't in the poll, so I voted for (They Long to be) Close to You

My choice would be other:

Calling Occupants Of Interplanetary Craft (The Recognized Anthem of World Contact Day).

I picked Close To You...But really prefer 'Other' because my absolute favorite from this time is 'Calling Occupants Of Interplanetart Craft'. 'Superstar' is awsome too. Hell theyre all awsome.
