Two guys from the suburbs of NYC loved old doo-wop and '60s girl groups!

Number 4: 172: "Lovefool" vs. "Kiss Me"

Number 5: 171: "Dreams" vs. "You're So Vain" (w/Andrew Unterberger!)
Two of the finest and most devastating kiss-off tracks of the '70s, the songs that basically created the Main Pop Girl era five decades ahead of time, but which of these is the most heartbreakingly brutal burns of the '70s, "Dreams" by Fleetwood Mac or "You're So Vain" by Carly Simon?
