5. You're welcome! It took me years to track it down

Every now and then over the years, I'd hear a brief snatch of it on TV, and I was like, "WHAT IS THAT SONG? I LOVE IT!" (I grew up listening to top 40 and AOR, never listened to other stuff back in the day.) Finally, after years and years, I found out it was by none other than A#1: the Duke of New York. (Though it was actually written by Burt Bacharach.)

Hooverphonic used a lot of that song in a cool little tune called '2Wicky,' which is quite nice in its own right (though the lyrics are pretty banal).

Isaac is the man!
