Earlier this week we played Styx' "Renegade" for our "songs of mayhem and mischief" Coffee Break and it reminded us that so many songs start out with, or feature at some point, a section where the music drops out and you hear only voices.

So for today's 9:30 Coffee Break, what songs do you want to hear that feature an a cappella section?
