I like Seasons in the Sun because I find the music compelling. It's actually a translation of a Jacques Brel song, which I once heard the original and I didn't like it as much as this one.

And a couple other ones have their appeal. Convoy actually has a nice tune and when I hear it I start humming along.
Muskrat Love again has a decent tune but was done better by The Captain and Tenille.
Tie a Yellow Ribbon is undeniably catchy and I kind of like songs with surprise endings, although it's not quite a surprise ending if you think about it.

Pina Colada is kind of amusing I guess.

I got nothing nice to say about the rest of them.


Thank you. The video is talking about The Captain and Tenille version of "Muskrat Love'. They mentioned it was released first by America, but that version failed to hit #1. These songs were all #1 hits and it was The Captain & Tenille's version that hit #1.
