I see you're taking liberties with your "songs with 1 in the title." :)

I personally love Aimee Mann's version of "One" --- and now I'm thinking that this song for sure needs the "Inside Tracks" treatment. It's a song that is impossible to pick just one best version of.

What "liberties"? I know you're joshin', but for readers who may have otherwise misconstrued: I never said "songs with 1 in the title"! I mentioned we're celebrating the number and songs about the delectable digit! With "A Million Miles Away," "one" is understood. With a couple of the others, "1" was a digit in a larger numeral.

As for Nilsson's "One," you're right---but, for "Inside Tracks" consideration (as a for-instance), a song like that, I'd simply lean more toward the more interesting, and/or most underheard, covers. No one needs ME to simply regurgitate million-selling hits or even tagging ANY song as being best! I simply set the table, and let the invited diners choose which tasty morsels to try and like as they may!πŸŽΆπŸŽ΅πŸŽ€πŸ‘
