Those are good ones too, AHD. 
And no, both songs: Carly Simon's "Anticipation" and Ringo's "It Don't Come Easy" were both used for Heinz commercials.  I remember both.  I think at one point I even heard "Stand Tall" used in one where a fork or something was stuck in a big jar of Heinz and it never tipped over.

More Branigan, who left us way too early..

I actually really dislike both of LAURA BRANIGAN's biggest charters...  :lookingup:  But I had a "Self Control" moment.

And on a more juvenile note, I used to play this one constantly on my little plastic record player in the mid to late 70s. I think the original recording was better than this version, but the video is funny.

Another one I used to play over and over as a little kid:

Looking back, I must have driven my parents nuts.

I remember how stupid the movie Convoy was.  Just awful.

"Girly" songs closer to my youth..

NEIL YOUNG wrote that song, and recorded it on his Comes A Time album.  

And this does take me back:

Don't those belong in the "Songs you NEVER want to hear again thread...?   :wink:

Yeah, I knew Mr. Young wrote that song.. sure glad Nicolette sang it and not him.

I used to love The Streak.  Pardon me sir, did you see what happened?  Yuh, I did.. :teddyr:

Hopefully these aren't repeats from earlier posts, mine or others..

SPANDAU BALLET reminded me of these... all songs I liked then, some more than others, but none are now represented in my own collection, though I had most on vinyl... then. 

Now this one takes me back... BOY GEORGE looks like a crazed nun; not so sure I want to go there:

This one could have been taken and I'd overlook it, it was way overplayed... 25 years ago!!  (Longer...)   :bluesad:
