Dutch band 'Focus' with 'Hocus Pocus' . Hadn't heard it in years until it was used in an advert for the World Cup in South Africa (2010) . Huge hit back in the day . Yodeling meets rock

If you like a good yodel, try this Australian effort from 1994 on for size:

'Blood , Sweat & Tears' won a Grammy for this huge 1969 hit . Quite an uplifting song .

From 'Wiki' ...

"Spinning Wheel" is the title of a popular song from 1969 by the band Blood, Sweat & Tears. The song was written by band member and Canadian musician David Clayton-Thomas and appears on their self-titled album.

Clayton-Thomas was quoted as describing the song as being "written in an age when psychedelic imagery was all over lyrics...(i)t was my way of saying, 'Don't get too caught up, because everything comes full circle'

Here's one of 'Chicago's' big hits . Not a big story behind this song but this quote from 'Robert Lamm' (one of 'Chicago's' founding members) does take you into the songwriters mind .

Lamm himself says that the title is "just a reference to the time of day," and that "the song is about writing a song. It's not mystical." The time of day in reference is 3:35 AM (or 3:34 AM), which would then be 25 (or 26) minutes to 4 AM

I saw them live at London's Roundhouse in Chalk Farm at their peak in 1974/75... and to my mind they were pretty much as described in their name...average.

Perth Band 'Eskimo Joe' released this song a few years ago . They wrote the song in memory of Heath Ledger (the band were in New York when Heath tragically passed away) . Heath was also from Perth .

From wiki ...

It had just started snowing. It was a magical moment. That night we had to do this Australia gig, and when we got to it we found out that Heath Ledger had died. He'd died two blocks from where I was walking and at the time I was walking and it started snowing. He was from Perth and we were in New York, this big foreign city, and I felt this immense loneliness of this kid from my hometown dying by himself there.

I can't seem to stop listening to this song by Matt Corby. I believe he was in Australian Idol or something similar a few years ago. The song did pretty well in Triple J's Hottest 100 from memory too.
