Did anyone go to the audio link?
http://www.ourmedia.org/node/112592
That is NOT a Buffett recording!
Actually, very few of the links are for the actual recordings listed. :x
(and who knew Tom "Cruze" moonlighted as a Sun-Times shutterbug?)

You mean like Jimmy never recorded the Pina Colada Song?
When they run you out of town make it look like you are leading the parade.

They probably had to post royalty free versions of some of the songs. A couple selections, like "Feliz Navidad", were midi files. I guess we're supposed to know the versions we're voting for. Seems they could have put a 30 second clip of the real songs...

My vote for Jimmy's Jingle Bells... 8)
