the original (?) version of "Love of the Common People" certainly sounds better than Paul Young's 80s cover :thumbsup:

I'm sorry I didn't vote for it, but it's a cool song nonetheless :)

9. What Have They Done To My Song, Ma - Melanie (1970)

I can't believe that this little song made the Ten. I love you people!! :bow:

Actually I think that the whole 1 & 2, being nominated by the same person, has been done before a few times ... but I don't think it's ever been done with the same band making 1 & 2. I also think that this is a first time nomination for Crystal Ship, which is unbelievable. Great Ten!! :D
