I love the Eagles and most of their solo stuff but I have to go with Sade this round.

I'm going to have to go with Sade. I don't even remember the other song.

I **love** the sax hook in "The One You Love", very sexy.... BUT... I just can't help but think "Smooth Operator" is just the better written song, lyrics-wise and is pretty sexy itself. Gonna edge this one out to Sade. -------------------- Visit the FULL FRONTAL FANDANGO & laugh along with Lash at http://lashlaugh.wordpress.com/

Since Sade dedicated that song (secretly, of course) to me, I'll vote for her too. -------------------- Something Filthy!

Hands down, Yes. Only two other groups with hits in the 80's would I have even considered a challenge and that would have been Heart or Pink Floyd.

Hmmm, two OK pop tracks by bands that had done a lot better earlier in their careers. I'll go with the Yes song 'cos I think it's more memorable. -------------------- Legion World's Badwill Ambassador

I going to go with the Romantics. I like the song better, plus their video had all the scantily clad ladies in it and the Yes video was sort of disturbing.
