    As I scanned the list, I had to get all the way down to Gino Vannelli before I realized everything wasn't what it seemed.

    Not sure I get it. The other comments don't seem to cover it.
  • Do any of those song titles seem a little ... I dunno ... familiar?
  • The Platters did "The Great Pretender". Brian Eno did "The Great Pretender", but...

    Rod Stewart did "Maggie May" while The Beatles did "Maggie Mae"...

    This is all the hint I'm allow to offer.
  • Tick...tick...tick...bing! I get it now.

    Hell yes, The Boxer. Love that song.
  • Ace mix tape!
