Ain't had a good old rate in yonkers...

Give Me Just A Little More Time - Chairmen Of The Board 4
Great soul thumper with Johnson's distinctive voice...try and get hold of 'You've Got Me Dangling On A String' (the follow-up) - that's even better...!

Build Me Up Buttercup - Foundations 4
Us Brits could throw a fine pop/soul smash together, too...still well-liked...

Come On Down To My Boat - Every Mother's Son 3
S'okay, but not terribly special...

Our Lips Are Sealed - Go-Go's 3
Once again, s'okay...being British, I do prefer the Fun Boy Three version, but not by much...

A Little Bit Me, A Little Bit You - Monkees 4
Attractive Neil Diamond fluff...not as throat-grabbing as 'Believer'...

We Built This City - Starship 4
Blender's obviously got something against this...some people obviously don't like, but still sounds fine to me...

Ride Captain Ride - Blues Image 4
Cool mid-paced rocker...

Bad Girls - Donna Summer 3
Bearable - just...! She's done better...

Save The Last Dance For Me - Drifters 5
Can't fault this for what it is...an outstanding song and performance...

Working My Way Back To You - Four Seasons 4
Bit of soul influence crept into their work by then...wonderful...

Dang Me - Roger Miller 4
Just on this side of plain daft...excellent...

Little Jeannie - Elton John 2
Stiffed terribly here...I've never been that taken by it...

Mother - Pink Floyd 4
Fine stuff from 'The Wall'...

Our Lips Are Sealed-Go Gos  Good stuff!  4
We Built This City-Starship  Nah.  1
Ride Captain Ride-Blues Image  Nice.  3.5
Champagne Supernova-Oasis  3.5
Bad Girls-Donna Summers  3.5
Working My Way Back To You Babe-Four Seasons  The only version of this that I know would be medley by The Spinners (1980).  I'd give that a 5!
Amie-Pure Prarie League  Not bad for a country song.  3.5
Sweet Mellissa-Allman Brothers  3.5
Little Jeannie-Elton John  4
