The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face - Roberta Flack - Not to my tastes but I recognize it as a classic of sorts but I would never play it nor not change the station if it came on. N/R
Heat Of The Moment - Asia - Extremely pompous but can be ok for comedic effect, sort of like The Final Countdown which I often confuse it with. 1/10
Tutti Frutti - Little Richard - A great song, what rock n roll was supposed to be. Doc covered this perfectly. - 7/10
Got My Mind Set On You - George Harrison - boring song 2/10
With Or Without You - U2 - boring as fuck like most U2 songs. They see themselves as more than they really are. A generous 2/10.

"Tutti Frutti" seemed the obvious choice, but Heston actually makes a good point about it: yup, it's great and all, but...
So I went with "With or Without You". There's real depth and pathos there, and the production and dynamics jack up the simple three chord riff. Sorta the converse of"Tutti Frutti" in some fashion

Speaking of the chord sequence for the U2 song, I'm sure I remember Joe accusing them of nicking it from Groovy Times.muppet hi fi wrote: ↑05 Mar 2020, 2:44am"Tutti Frutti" seemed the obvious choice, but Heston actually makes a good point about it: yup, it's great and all, but...

Little Richard for me all day everyday. Never boring.
