I can’t see where anybody’s mentioned _You’ve Lost That Lovin’ Feelin’_ by Spector, Mann and Weil, first recorded by the Righteous Brothers, which surprises me a little since it struck me as the most obvious. ETA: Dammit, that’s what I get for taking the extra minute to research the composers. ---

“You Don’t Love Me Anymore”, “One More Minute”, and “Since You’ve Been Gone” by Weird Al Yankovic all immediately came to mind; there’s probably several more by him. “Two Outta Three Ain’t Bad” by Meat Loaf. ---

Randy Newman’s “Just One Smile.” I can’t seem to find him singing it, but here’s [Dusty Springfield](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J55WDyQ2KB0) “[When Love is Gone](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r57KXWeXKoY&t=1m5s)” from _The Muppets Christmas Carol_ Louis Jordan’s “[Is You Is or Is You Ain’t My Baby.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5LGl70VGvmg)” ---

> [@RealityChuck](#): > > Randy Newman’s “Just One Smile.” I can’t seem to find him singing it, but here’s [Dusty Springfield](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J55WDyQ2KB0) Wow! That is one of my favorite Blood Sweat & Tears songs. No idea it was a Randy Newman song. If you’re not familiar with the BST version I highly recommend it. I’ll have to seek out Newman’s. My contributions: “Break Your Heart” by Barenaked Ladies “Seeing Other People” by Belle & Sebastian “Don’t Change Your Plans For Me” by Ben Folds Five (Yes I only listen to artists starting with “B”) ---

Every Little Thing (ELT) - _Time Goes By_ - This was a big hit in Japan in 1998 and for some reason defined that year for me, which wasn’t a good one. It’s not your usual I’m so sad we broke up, but “we both have something to learn from our breakup”. "Remember it one more time The way we loved each other so much That we were able to say “thank you” Say goodbye… The moment the pain and scars are left behind We will understand the meaning of true tenderness Surely" The full English lyrics are here: [http://lyrics.wikia.com/wiki/Every\_Little\_Thing:Time\_Goes\_By/en](http://lyrics.wikia.com/wiki/Every_Little_Thing:Time_Goes_By/en) ---

_Cause We Ended As Lovers_ by Syretta [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CTOU\_kuH4Bo](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CTOU_kuH4Bo) “But that was more than years ago And who will love me I don’t know It’s sad for sure but true it won’t be you” [https://genius.com/Syreeta-cause-weve-ended-as-lovers-lyrics](https://genius.com/Syreeta-cause-weve-ended-as-lovers-lyrics) Most people are only familiar with Jeff Beck’s version, but this one is great too.
