Squeeze

... provided the song of the day today - Take Me I'm Yours. It popped up in the iPod shuffle on the way home from work. It's an acoustic version from KFOG's Live From the Archives 1. For those who don't know this San Francisco radio station, every year they do a benefit for Bay Area foodbanks with proceeds from the sales of the CD's. All tracks are donated by the artists, and are live from KFOG's studios or from Bay Area clubs. The very first year Squeeze did what is to this day my favorite version of the song. We have the first 7 or so years of CD's and recently did an online search. CD buyers are paying about 12 bucks a CD for the old ones, and selling them for over $75! Think I'll hang on to it. But mostly, because Squeeze got it right.

And in a well shuffled follow up, Modern English - I Melt With You. Ah, nostalgia...
