How about Evergreen by Will Young?


Ok, maybe not!!


Waterfront by Simple Minds was a good call. Don't You Forget About Me also ranks.

Sweet Child O' Mine, naturally. Hotel California, the live version, by The Eagles.

Also, pardon the swearing, but Money for Nothing by Dire Straits. Sunset Now by Heaven 17. Seconds by Human League. I could go on, but won't.
