52 Erasure — Sometimes

35 Dire Straits — Walk Of Life

Only voting Sam Cooke down for the classic "it's not the best number 2 of the 1980s" reason. Nothing wrong with the song.

He redecorated our entire apartment at 5am on coke to match the show.
Song's fine but yeah being an instrumental is a detriment too... I'll have to conjure up more bad memories to eliminate other songs next.
