To answer your query in order. Carly Simon blows, Overloved, GNR cover is better, Meh. You Only Live Twice is probably 3rd on my list. |

I know I'm in the minority,but I really liked the Jack White/Alicia Keys song. Also the great Shirley Bassey had two catchy tunes. |

Forget about Carly Simon. That song is all about Sweetness and NFL Today and Brent Musburger and Jayne Kennedy and/or Phyllis George, whoever was there at the time. It's glorious. |

Some people (probably internally at ESPN) want you to interview Bill Simmons, Dave. |

On another note, Lon Simmons was the voice of Starting Lineup Talking Baseball game, and I believe he was the voice of Joe Montana Football on Genesis. |
