What songs do you want to hear for today's coffee break?

We're having some fun on this lovely Thursday. We received a great suggestion from behind the scenes at The Current from our Digital Producer, Luke Taylor. Luke wrote, "I can't remember if you've done this one before and I couldn't find it with Google, but this is kind of a random Coffee Break idea, it's songs with parentheses in the title." We may have done this one before, but it's been a while.

Thanks Luke for the suggestion. Let's put together a list of songs with parentheses in the title. What do you want to hear?

Songs Played:

Sly and the Family Stone - "Thank You (Falettinme Be Mice Elf Agin)"

The White Stripes - "You're Pretty Good Looking (For a Girl)"

Kenny Rodgers and the First Edition - "Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition was in)"

Elvis Costello - "(The Angels Want to Wear My) Red Shoes"

The Beatles - "Norwegian Wood (This Bird Has Flown)"

The Beastie Boys - "(You Gotta) Fight For Your Right (To Party)"
