Tighten Up - The Black Keys (2010)

I love that song, it's been in rotation on my ipod since it's release.

[Dappled]

A couple of album tracks from 1965, I believe.

Too Many People - The Hollies

I Put a Spell On You - The Animals

[edna]

I Put a Spell On You - The Animals

What??? This has not made the Top Ten yet??

...unbelievable.

[pinkstones]

There are a lot of songs that haven't made the TT that probably should have, IMO. It's not that unthinkable.

[MuzikTyme]

One Way Street ~ Aerosmith 1973

Obscured by Clouds ~ Pink Floyd 1972

[Lucky]

Muzik, Green Grass & High Tides has already made the Ten. Got another?

[MuzikTyme]

Sorry about that, Carole, give me a minute to take care of it.

Edit...I changed my original second choice in my first post of nominations to save space. I checked and didn't see the above song listed yet so it's my second nomination this week.

Sorry about my mistake.
