The Satchel Paige Poll

Message Bookmarked

Bookmark Removed

Greil Marcus wrote somewhere that no one's ever written a less-than-great song called "Don't Look Back." Here are four famous ones, a phantom fifth (if you don’t think it qualifies, just pretend it isn’t there), and an option for whatever I’ve missed (I know I have at least a couple of others at home that I can’t recall right now).

Poll Results

Option	Votes
2. "Don't Look Back," Remains	1
5. "She Belongs to Me," Bob Dylan	1
6. I know a "Don't Look Back" better than any of these...	1
1. "Don't Look Back," Temptations	0
3. "Don't Look Back," Boston	0
4. "Don't Look Back," Fine Young Cannibals	0

You mean "Where are they?"...I knew I'd miss some--there must be a couple of dozen. If it's better than what's listed, click the last box.

This poll has been such a resounding success, I'm making myself available full-time as a Get-Your-Poll-Noticed consultant: topicality, originality, eye-catching headlines, I'll cover it all.
