Thank you.
Strange really, as it's one of things that we can see but not necessarily notice until it's pointed out.
From posting on Twitter, I think Cum On Feel the Noize is one of those songs that many Americans don't realise is a cover.
Another that many people that don't realise is a cover is Angel of Mine by Monica. That was originally by UK female trio Eternal.

What is Santaโs favorite sport?
North Pole-vaulting๐๐๐คถ๐๐
The draw:
Group L: England, Croatia, Ghana, Panama
it could have been better but also worse.
The big plus (for fans in England watching on television) is that it's just been announced that all of England's group games will kick off either at 9pm or 11pm British Summer Timeโฝ
Thank you๐
it's a good story telling video as well๐ถ

I've gone for the representation of peace, plus this is a Christmas song. Also, did you know that Paul McCartney is left-handed? I didn't until 10 minutes ago!

Day 6 - Left-handed guitarist playing
I had to research, so blame internet if I'm wrong๐คฃ. I was surprised by some of the name on the list, as I've never noticed. Paul McCartney is one, as

Best: England, Austria, Qatar, Curaco
Worst: England, Columbia, Ivory Coast, Uefa Play-off B(unless Italy win A)

Tbh, I hadn't realised that they still releasing new music until a couple of months ago, when someone tagged me into a post for Matt Bianco's new album.
๐๐ถIt definitely has a very upbeat and feel good factor

The Mummy (2017)
That's a shame because, as you say, it's a brilliant Christmas feel good song.
I didn't know, until I joined in with music challenges, that Slade didn't achieve (a lot of) success in the US until the mid-80s. By that stage, in the Uk, they were iconic because of Merry Xmas Everybody.

Hold Me Closer by Cornelia Jakobs
One of my favourite artists๐ถ
www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fr58...
According to the UK Charts website: If This Is It peaked at No 39 in October 1984.
Something else that I read on that website is that Hip To Be Square never made the UK Top 40. I was really surprised to read that. It peaked at No 41.
I don't think that I knew that it was written specifically for Back to the Future. Thanks for adding.
Being in the UK, this is the first song that I remember of Huey Lewis and the News. Although, having just searched the answer, they did have a previous record in the Top 40.
