    "You never close your eyes anymore when I kiss your lips"
    --The Righteous Brothers' 'You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin''

    DJs first thought Bill Medley's brooding vocals were playing at the wrong speed. The song became the most played in radio history anyway.

    Next time use the original version. Why artists think they can improve on the original by remaking their own song is a mystery to me...

    This should be in the top 5, but whomever made this list probably wasn't even born when this song was rockin' our lives. LOL In fact, his mother probably conceived because of this song. LOL
