Will Young, "Leave Right Now"
I'd argue that Vanilla Fudge, "You Keep Me Hangin' On" counts separately from the Supremes version because it's a completely different take on the song. Almost prog rock.
It's like, in the middle of all this, I'm paranoid that you'll think I don't like poetry.

There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

Vanilla Fudge’s version is what you get if you take the Supreme’s version and play it at 33⅓ instead of 45rpm. Both the tempo and the pitch are shifted accordingly.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
I always think of this as a break up "finally came to my senses" song.
Oh, right. And now I realise that the reason I thought differently was because of its treatment on The Muppet Show.

Oh, here's a fun one, featured in the finale of Season Three of Doctor Who: Rogue Traders, "Voodoo Child".

An older song: the Beatles, "Girl".

Here's an interesting one, Beyonce's "Ring The Alarm". (I favour the Freemasons remix for the pumped-up angry violin work.)

Ooh, nice one.
Another offering from Kylie: "Giving You Up". (Clearly I'll have to form a playlist for myself from all this too.)

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I will repost the new and vastly improved playlist once it is complete.

Got another one: The Eurythmics, "Who's That Girl?"
