I mean, no one is putting paul mccartney's hits on the beatles greatest hits. And I feel like the Moodies have plenty of good songs on their own without needing to put heywards music on it.
Is this just me or am I missing something?

It's time to begin the Summer Sadness Bracket to find the worst (least-loved?) Moodies song of all time.
Sixteen songs didn't quite seem like enough, and 32 songs was too many. I settled on 20 songs. To maintain the bracket format, twelve unpopular tunes are receiving a bye into the second round. The eight remaining songs will do battle in four, round one matches. The four survivors will move on to round two, where a standard 16-entry bracket commences.
I hope this makes sense. You can see in the attached image that 12 tunes have already "won". If there are any objections, corrections, or points of confusion, please let me know at this time.
We can start the first matchup tomorrow.
I love this song and its production has always annoyed me, so hearing this was like striking gold.
Please give this person a like and a subscription on YouTube and listen to their other remixes.
This remix is VERY well-done.
I already knew Nights in White Satin & Melancholy Man but I decided to give their other songs a shot only this April, oh boy I was missing a lot. I LOVE them so much, especially Justin Hayward
my ranking of only the ones i love
I feel like no one talks about their relationship to psychadelism and psychedelic substances when every other song they make is a trip report...
I personally came to love them because no one described those worlds of feelings and experiences like them. I
Has anyone else ever related to them this way?
